BOLLYWOOD : (2014) This Year's Releases Till Date, Success & Failures

Starting from

January :  Success : Yaariyan turned out to be a big hit among the audience, especially the young generation. The Collections raked upto 40 Crores in India which is very good. The songs (ABCD ft. Honey Singh, Sunny Sunny & Baarish) were a major success and other tracks also did well. Debutant Himansh Kohli got little mileage from the film..
  Failure :  Jai Ho became a surprise failure in terms of collections. Many liked the film, but still something went wrong and led to disappointment. The songs (Tere Naina & Baaki Sab First Class Hai) worked very well with the audience but others couldn't impress much. The film was a crowd puller as there was Salman's presence due to which the collections went upto 111 Crores & became 2014's first member of the 100 Crore Club. Salman was at his acting best. Debutant Actress Daisy Shah got 3 film offers after Jai Ho.
Other failures include Dedh Ishqiya, Karle Pyaar Karle, Sholay 3D, Joe B. Carvalho, One By Two etc.

February :  Success : Hasee Toh Phasee scored well in the Box Office collecting 36 Crores. The Chemistry between Siddharth & Parineeti was well liked by the young audience. The songs (Drama Queen & Punjaabi Wedding Song) were great hits. Other songs were also good. The film was equally liked and appreciated.
Siddharth Malhotra is now on the track & Parineeti also.
  Gunday became Super Hit due to various reasons. The great Chemistry between Arjun & Ranveer and the presence of great actors like Priyanka Chopra and Irrfan Khan and due to its strong content. The Trailer was loved by all and was buzzworthy. The Songs (Tune Maari Entriyaan, Jashn-e-Ishqa and Asalaam-e-Ishqum) became favourites among the audience. The film has till now collected 75 Crores in India and has already touched the 100 Crore Mark worldwide.
  Shaadi Ke Side Effects is doing very well in terms of collections. It has already collected Rs. 24 Crores in its 1st weekend. The Comedy content is appealing to the film even if the film is not good.
  Failure : Highway was a washout in terms of collections. The film was well liked the audience and appreciated. The Songs (Maahi Ve, Patakha Guddi ft. Nooran Sisters and ft. AR Rahman) were big hits and added the buzz to the film. Alia Bhatt succeeded in making a mark for herself in the film. The collections of the film has landed on 25 Crores Nett In India.
