Analysis:

Star Value: Although Manoj Bajpayee is remarkable performer, he isn’t the kind of a star who could pull audience to theatrse. Considering the rest of the cast, we can say the star value for Gangs Of Wasseypur is low.

Hype: The quirky promo with witty humour has been appreciated by the audience. The makers have done well in promotions and marketing. This has created good hype for the movie.

Music: Unusually rebellious songs like ‘Jiya Tu’, ‘Womaniya’ and ‘Hunter’ have managed to impress and have helped in publicizing the film.

Prediction:

Gangs Of Wasseypur will surely get a descent to good opening. If the film manages to impress initially, it will once again bring Manoj Bajpayee in the big league. It has a chance at metros as well as small centers. It will face some opposition from Teri Meri Kahaani but that won’t bother the producers much as there is not much hype for the Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra starrer.
