I watched Dabangg the day it was released and knew it would be a huge hit!

It was such great fun. Like i said in my text to some of you - i forgot what the movie was about as soon as i got up from the seat but just remembered laughing...
a lot.

Salman Khan is back and that makes me very happy.
I am a recent Salman Khan fan. Not because of the movie but because he gave an interview some time back where he told some badly behaved reporters, "Aggar aap log Salman Khan jaise behave karenge, toh Salman Khan kya karega".
I thought that question alone warranted another fan.

What is brilliant about Dabangg is he is not "catering to the Indian audience's changing sensibilities".
As far as Salman Khan is concerened, "All your sensibilities be damned - that's Aamir Khan's headache. Let's be honest - you are actually just dying to whistle and see my bare chest tear out of a shirt. So let's do this: How about i make a movie with 1 number amma scene, 3 numbers whistle-worthy dialogues, 1 number chest baring scene and 2 numbers scene with the lady. WRAP. Lets see what that delivers..."

AND This is what it did deliver. Dabangg: 47 Crores! (Opening weekend).
Next big hit is 3 Idiots: 38 Crores (Opening weekend).
RESOUNDING HIT!
Will the real super star please stand up.
