Though generally Bollywood films get released on DVDs abroad, except for Shah Rukh Khan's and other big budget films that release in theatres, Sanjay Sharma's DUNNO Y... NA JAANE KYUN is going to see a theatrical release in Germany, Austria, Italy and Switzerland, all with largely German speaking populace.

DUNNO Y... would be the first small budget film to be released in theaters in these countries. And, while big blockbusters are aimed at the Indians settled there, DUNNO Y would be targeting the Germans as well. This is the reason why it will have German subtitles or may even get dubbed in German in the second phase of the release in November, which follows the first phase in September. To prove how it's being sought after abroad, big German distributors are queuing up to get the film.

Since DUNNO Y... is the first Indian film about serious gay relationships because of which it is generating a lot of curiosity all over the globe... as it is proving from the various international awards that it is winning.

Sonam Kapoor loses her smile

MUMBAI: Sonam Kapoor's smile has shrunk after the release of her film AISHA. Well, the reason is pretty obvious. Sonam had high hopes from the film but it has only managed to get a mixed response from the audiences.

Our source tells us the new story. He says, "These days Sonam is not her bubbly self that she is known to be. As she is very close to her mom, Sonam loves her company more than the arc lights. In fact Sonam and her sister are wondering what went wrong with this subject that had everything in its favour." 

AISHA, as the reports have already suggested didn't get the public pulse right. Despite its attractive storyline and great performances, Sonam Kapoor could woo the audiences to the extent she hoped to do.
