With the nationwide release of Chhota Bheem & The Throne of Bali this Friday, the stage is set for India’s animation superstar <em>Chhota Bheem</em> to take on real life stars from <em>Bombay Talkies</em> and <em>Shootout At Wadala</em>.

After Kamal Haasan’s bravura Kathak in Vishwaroop, it’s time for some serious freestyle Western dancing at the box office. After a dismal week at the box office when nothing worked except Kamal Haasan’s kickass stunts in <em>Vishwaroop</em>, we look at the coming Friday with renewed hope. The two films up for release this week are mainstream entertainers, but those that bend the conventional rules of entertainment.
