With 2007 well behind us it is time now to analyse how our movies performed. Shah Rukh Khan takes the lead

Year on Year each New Year brings us hope and cheer of something new and good. Hey Guys and Gals, don’t worry, the critics may scare you with recession time in US of A. But Bollywood will be zooming full throttle in 2008.

As the year 2007 ends, desifans.com presents the Bollywood Box Office report for 2007. With a bounty of Rs 76 crore and counting, Om Shanti Om has smashed all box office records. Comedies ruled the box office this year with Akshay Kumar delivering 3 major blockbuster hits (and we are yet to add Welcome to this).

Chak De India and Om Shanti Om. You must be guessing its Shahrukh Khan who ruled the box office in 2007. SRK had a great year but it was Akshay Kumar who was the Bollywood Box Office King of 2007.

Goal is set in UK but the movie did better in India than in UK or USA. Underwhelming performances at the box office seem to continue as Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal has registered below par collections in India over the opening week, despite some good early reports.

About a week before Diwali, I had an argument with my boss. His line of reasoning- a man who’s made movies like Black and Devdas ought to know his business. Apparently not! The box office has announced its verdict. On Shanti Om has made 7+ crores in its first week in Mumbai alone, while Saawariya, which promised eternity to begin with, is now a slowly fading blur on the horizon.

Last week desifans launched the Bollywood fan network. Now Bollywood fans can meet other fans, make friends, discuss, share videos, download songs and have fun.

Finally a fresh romantic story in weeks in cinemas this year. Jab We Met sparkles with the chemistry of the lead pair, Shahid Kapur and Kareena kapoor as well as a well crafted neatly paced screenplay and slick direction.
