The last month of the year promises to deliver some solid hits for Bollywood. Beginning with Ashutosh Gowariker’s lavish historical Panipat and Mudassar Aziz’s lascivious comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh on December 6, the year closes with the Rani Mukerjee-driven action drama Mardaani 2 and the Rishi Kapoor (his first release since his illness) and Emraan Hashmi suspense thriller The Body on December 13.

The Bigg Bangg (the double Gs are deliberate) of December is of course the Salman Khan franchise film Dabangg 3 on December 20 which is expected to be among the Top 3 hits of the year along with the Yash Raj-Hrithik-Tiger Shroff actioner War and Akshay Kumar’s ha-ha-thon Housefull 4.

Wait ,there is more good news.

Karan Johar’s Akshay-Kareena-Diljit Dosanjh rom-com about pregnancy Good Newwz releases during the last week of 2019.

Says trade analyst Girish Johar, “With Pati Patni Aur Woh, Panipat, The Body, Mardaani 2, Dabangg3 and Good Newwz in the offing, the last few weeks of 2019 is surely going to be a hell of a joyride. These films are catering to all different kind of target audiences and all are looking fantastic. Combining all hoping they collect above Rs 500 crores at the boxoffice which is a substantial percentage of the overall annual BO. Till now the BO is on a high this year and to top it up we also have Jumanji and Star Wars from the Hollywood in December. On the regional side we have 90 ml, Mammangam, also Dabangg3 being dubbed, hope we end the year with a MAHA BAAANG !”
