Interesting movies coming up in 2017

Last updated on: July 24, 2017 13:58 IST

Which of these films will make it to the Rs 100 crore club?

The first half of 2017 saw its share of hits and flops.

The rest of the year has some big movies coming up for release.

Take a look:

Mubarakan
Release date: July 28

IMAGE: Arjun Kapoor and Ileana D'Cruz in Mubarakan.

Mubarakan is an Anees Bazmee film all the way.

Arjun Kapoor had a decent grosser in Half Girlfriend and with Mubarakan, he steps into an out and out mass zone.

With Anil Kapoor's delightfully over-the-top presence heightening the movie's comic potential, Mubarakan is seen as a fun family entertainer.

Jab Harry Met Sejal
Release date: August 4

IMAGE: Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma in Jab Harry Met Sejal.

SRK returns to romcom after a long time, and with Imtiaz Ali at the helm of affairs, Jab Harry Met Sejal seems to be a fusion of two distinct movie thought processes.

SRK and Anushka Sharma delivered a superhit in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi -- Yash Raj Films' biggest hit before Dhoom3 -- and the successful Jab Tak Hai Jaan.

JHMS appears a lively, fun, movie that should keep the multiplexes busy.

Toilet - Ek Prem Katha
Release date: August 11

IMAGE: Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar in Toilet - Ek Prem Katha.

Akshay Kumar has been picking up interesting subjects and Toilet - Ek Prem Katha is no different.

Akshay has rarely missed the box office bull-eye in recent times and this film too seems a winner.

Baadshaho
Release date: September 1

IMAGE: Ajay Devgn and Ileana D'Cruz in Baadshaho.

Director Milan Luthria and Ajay Devgn's collaborations have mostly worked -- 1999's Kachche Dhage and 2010's Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai.

Baadshaho is as commercial as it gets.

Emraan Hashmi, Ileana D'Cruz and Esha Gupta add to the mix while Vidyut Jammwal brings on the action.

Judwaa 2
Release date: September 29

IMAGE: Varun Dhawan, Jacqueline Fernandez and David Dhawan on the sets of Judwaa 2.

Double Varun Dhawan, double the 'dhamaal'...

Producer Sajid Nadiadwala and director David Dhawan delivered a solid hit with Salman Khan 20 years ago with Judwaa.

Varun will hope to re-create that magic with Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu.

Golmaal Again
Release date: October

IMAGE: The Golmaal Again team -- Arshad Warsi, Parineeti Chopra, Ajay Devgn, director Rohit Shetty, Tusshar Kapoor, Tabu, Kunal Kemmu and Shreyas Talpade.

Among all the movies Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn have worked on, the Golmaal franchise has been the most successful.

The fourth Golmaal movie will release during Diwali.

Secret Superstar
Release date: October

IMAGE: Aamir Khan in Secret Superstar.

Aamir Khan introduced Secret Superstar with Dangal.

The promo saw Zaira Wasim and Aamir in interesting roles.

There has been appropriate secrecy since, but anything with Aamir in it, we looovvee.

Padmavati
Release date: November 17

IMAGE: Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor in Padmavati.

Another historical from Sanjay Leela Bhansali after Bajirao Mastani.

Shahid Kapoor romances Deepika Padukone for the first time, while real life beau Ranveer Singh plays the villain.

SLB has a winner for sure.

Tiger Zinda Hai
Release date: December 22

IMAGE: Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in Tiger Zinda Hai.

Tubelight may have been a rare failure, but Salman Khan is back with the Ek Tha Tiger sequel, Tiger Zinda Hai.

Sultan director Ali Abbas Zafar's action entertainer is set for a Christmas release.
