Every year has its landmark movie moment. Dabangg made 2010 memorable, while The Dirty Picture rocked 2011. Check out our list of movies that are bound to make an impression this year.
Ek Tha Tiger
Stars: Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif
Director: Kabir Khan
Salman stars as Tiger. Need we say more? Kabir’s film will see the star in an action-packed avatar as he plays a deadly RAW (Research and Analysis Wing) agent. And audiences won’t miss his trademark dollops of tongue-in-cheek humour, not to mention his romantic side, given that co-star and ‘good friend’ Katrina are looking like a million bucks.

Barfi!
Stars: Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Ileana D’Cruz
Director: Anurag Basu
It will be Ranbir’s next release after Rockstar (2011). Although the film has been in the making for a while now, the first trailer has already generated a lot of buzz. While Ranbir plays a deaf-mute character called Barfi, PC stars as a mentally challenged girl. Many feel it’s a National Award-worthy performance from Ranbir. We’ll wait and watch!

Heroine
Stars: Kareena Kapoor, Arjun Rampal
Director: Madhur Bhandarkar
The project was first given to Kareena Kapoor, who turned it down. Then it went to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, before she left the film in lurch, when news of her pregnancy made headlines. As luck would have it, it came back to Bebo.

Is that enough real-life drama to tempt you into watching the flick based on the rise and fall of a superstar?

Talaash

Aamir’s next after 3 Idiots (2009). Touted to be a psychological drama, it’s being looked upon as a guaranteed box-office winner.

Yash Chopra’s untitled next
Stars: Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif, Anushka Sharma
Director: Yash Chopra
To put things simply, the king of romance returns to direction with the romantic superstar SRK in locales as varied as London and Ladakh. We are sure fans don’t need more reasons to lap up the film but for the uninitiated, SRK will wine and dine not one, but two reigning divas of the industry.
