SCOOP!! & NEWS 'Bride and Prejudice' on top in South Africa22nd Dec 2004 12.01 IST By ApunKaChoice Bureau Though it did not do well in India, Aishwarya Rai starrer Bride and Prejudice is ruling the box-office in South Africa. According to reports, ‘Bride and Prejudice’ grossed an impressive collection of $250,596 from 67 screens across South Africa.
‘Bride and Prejudice’ is pitted against two Hollywood biggies - Denzel Washington's 'The Manchurian Candidate' directed by Brett Ratner and the action adventure 'After The Sunset', starring Pierce Brosnan and Salma Hayek. ‘Bride and Prejudice’ is currently being screened in countries like the UK, the Middle East, Singapore, Hong Kong, Malaysia, South Africa and Switzerland. It will open in the United States on February 11, 2005. Based on Jane Austen's novel "Pride and Prejudice," the film by Gurinder Chadha transports the story on another plane by adding an essentially Indian touch that depicts assumptions, gossip and comedy of errors. The tale of a witty young woman trying to find a suitable husband in a cross-cultural setting that spans 21st century India, London and America, has Ash playing the Indian version of Austen's female protagonist Elizabeth. The film also stars Martin Henderson, Anupam Kher , Namrata Shirodkar among others and has ample Bollywood elements of dance and music amidst the arresting story of love, vanity, social pressures and the courtship of the two lovers. | CRICKET ZONE Live Cricket Coverage Song Lyrics ALSO READ scoop ~ Shah Rukh Khan set to recreate DDLJ magic with 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' ~ Shah Rukh Khan starts shooting for 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' ~ Amitabh Bachchan denies getting paid to write his blog ~ Mammootty completes 'Vande Mataram' ~ This is the first time I've fallen in love: Deepika Padukone ~ Jannat : Movie Review ~ Brazilian bombshell denies having affair with Salman Khan ~ Three 'Rang De Basanti' stars team up again ( more in scoop ) happenings ~ John Abraham roped in as Euro 2008 brand ambassador ~ Madhuri Dixit turns 41 ( more in happenings ) AKC HOT INDEX ECARDS > New Year, Diwali, Birthday, Valentines, Love, Christmas MOVIES Jannat, Bhoothnath, Jimmy, Anamika, Tashan, U Me Aur Hum, Race, Mr. White Mr. Black, Jodhaa Akbar, Taare Zameen Par, Krazzy 4, Woodstock Villa , Sarkar Raj , Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic , Shoebite MUSIC Tashan , U Me Aur Hum celebs» the celeb A-Z who's in » Katrina Kaif | Rani Mukherjee | Aishwarya Rai | Gayatri Joshi | Mallika Sherawat | Bipasha Basu | Preity Zinta | Priyanka Chopra | Kajol | Neha Dhupia | Kareena Kapoor | Shahrukh Khan | Salman Khan | Aamir Khan | Hrithik Roshan | Akshay Kumar | Vivek Oberoi | Sameera Reddy | Juhi Chawla | Sneha Ullal | John Abraham | Karisma Kapoor | Zayed Khan | Saif Ali Khan | Madhuri Dixit | Zeenat Aman | Payal Rohatgi | Abhishek Bachchan | Lisa Ray | Dimple Kapadia | Ayesha Takia | Dia Mirza | Sushmita Sen | Amisha Patel | Esha Deol | Amitabh Bachchan | Meghna Naidu | Amrita Rao | Arjun Rampal | Mahima Chaudhary | Amrita Arora | Vidya Balan | Raima Sen | Riya Sen | Rekha | Rakhi Sawant | Rimi Sen | Bhumika Chawla | Nigar Khan | Tanushree Dutta | Yana Gupta | Deepal Shaw | Shilpa Shetty | Celina Jaitley | Deepika Padukone | Ranbir Kapoor | Sonam Kapoor | more... |
