So, finally, we have arrived in 2018. Bid-adieu-ed to a not so exciting 2017 and as we move ahead, day by day, there’s a hope of a better year, a better 2018.
Anyone can tell that 2017 was a hard year for Bollywood in terms of box office collections and basic footfall in theatres. Big movies tanked while small ones were able to capture the interest of the audience. Then there were those who everyone hated yet they became some of the biggest grossers of the year.
However, 2018 can possibly be different than its prior and obsolete version of the timeline. With great storylines and casting, 2018 looks more promising than ever in terms of its Bollywood releases. Movie buffs have already tightened their belts for all that is going to come in early 2018.
Check out the 10 Bollywood movies that you need to look out for, in early 2018. These movies are expected to play it big at the box office, as well as, among the critics and audience.
