Hope ARM continues to make movies with Vijay. Missed having Vijay on board right from his first film.

And if it makes someone happy, even my dog hasn't watched Thuppakki. :wink:

Lol...true, Ajay. A simple "I am waiting" dialogue in the hindi version lacked the punch that Vijay brought in the tamil version.

And by the way, even my pet dog hasn't watched Thuppakki. ..so these happy souls can claim they attained Nirvana..out of happiness. God bless them.

Akshay has never denied that Holiday is a remake of Thuppakki...... All he had said was he signed the film even before thuppakki was made and he hasn't seen Thuppakki. There is nothing demeaning in both these statements.

Some of his earlier tweets during the initial phase of Holiday....

Started shooting my first film in the new year, the Hindi remake of Thuppakki! Would love to get your good wishes today

What should we call the Hindi remake of Thuppakki? For those who don't know, Thuppakki means a gun in Tamil and is an action thriller

Precisely...not sure why a couple of people are making a song and dance about this. As I said, ARM and Vijay also shared this during Thuppakki promotions and making...that ARM didn't do it in Hindi first cos Akshay needed 3 months to finish his commitments that time and Vijay's dates were immediately available. .so he discussed with Akshay and asked for 6 months extra time to complete Thuppakki...and they could do the hindi version after that. This is so common in film making business.

Anyway...some people and their thinking cannot be changed. Time to move on to other topics. Cheers!!

So Akshay himself calls Holiday, a Hindi remake of Thuppakki? Looks like he doesn't visit our hub. Our guys have a different theory altogether. :rotfl:

Lol Dammy, do you really think these are happy souls? Bitter souls who abuse to live and live to abuse.

I also came across the post about Vikatan Water Coopers' ratings based on information gathered by talking with Distributors, theatre owners and cine related people.

Hindu (2003), Forbes (2012 and 2013), UTV Dhanjayan's analysis (2013), Google's most searched actor in the last decade, Highest Satellite rights, Jilla's overwhelming pre-business lead all these cannot stand before Vikatan's ratings, obviously.

Vikatan is the new standard for Tamil Cinema Ratings how Behindwoods is to Box Office Collections and TFU Kannan for Twitter movie ratings. What they say, stay.

Well in a sense even Vijay signed the film even before Thuppaki was made.

Lol. Yeah.. I forgot that.
