Badass Ravi Kumar and Loveyapa
The weekend saw the release of several new films and re-release of some old films giving the audience a plethora of choices to make for their weekend viewing. Among the new releases in Hindi, star kids Junaid Khan and Khushi Kapoor's Loveyapa clashed with Himesh Reshammiya's Badass Ravi Kumar. Despite, Loveyapa having an edge during promotions with an army of stars vouching for the film the audience seem to have taken a liking for actor and musician Himesh Reshammiya's film. The latter is a film that suspends logic and delivers unhinged mass entertainment.
