Apparently Bhoothnath has done well as the newspapers have been plastered with large ads saying Huge Success! Good for the old man Bachchan. he has been having a lean run for some time now with no big hits to his name. He last had a Baghban to his credit. Yes, Cheeni Kum was well appreciated, but was not a big hit.So Bhoothnath will bring a smile to his lips. And its also good news for that very talented but under-rated comedian Juhi Chawla. And SRK has proved again what a good luck mascot he is. Feature him in a movie and he does prove lucky. Saathiya, Heyy Babyy, Kaal and now Bhoothnath.

Lots of producers and directors are doing it now. It has becoem the de-facto norm to include some big stars in your movie even if your star is mega star himself. It makes the movie interesting and makes audience sit up. And the biggest advantage is the medi bytes one gets in the press and TV. Remember the din created for the 30 odd stars in Om Shanti Om and the special item number by SRK in Heyy Babyy? It ensured that the movie was talked about and helped it pull in more audiences that they normally would.
