It seems that film makers are in massive rush to release their films before September comes to end. Otherwise how can one describe at least 12 more films getting ready to hit the marquee over next 3 Fridays.

While 'Naksha' and 'Dil Diya Hai' have already released last Friday, 4 confirmed releases for this Friday are 'Shiva', 'Pyaar Ke Side Effects', 'Bas Ek Pal' and 'Kachchi Sadak'. Incidentally the first two releases have seen their release dates being pushed number of times but now they are finally coming on screens.

A week later i.e. on September 22nd come as many as 5 confirmed releases which are 'Rocky - The Rebel', 'Khosla Ka Ghosla', 'Dor', 'Jai Santoshi Maa' and 'Manoranjan'. Again 'Rocky - The Rebel' was earlier supposed to arrive on August 18th but now has to contend with more than a month's delay release. 'Khosla Ka Ghosla' too has been a film lying in cans for quite some time before UTV revived its fortunes after taking over the product.

'Dor' is a Nagesh Kukunoor film that comes in the wake of 'Iqbal' but releases amidst a massive rush while 'Jai Santoshi Maa' is the first of the remakes to arrive before 'Don' and 'Umrao Jaan'. 'Manoranjan' is a small time film on the functioning of film industry and is the 5th film in the running. It may as well be 6 releases in the week if Bhagyashree, Ayesha Jhukla, Mohnish Behl and Aman Verma starrer social 'Janani' too manages to see the light of the day.

Well, the mad rush doesn't end here as 'Woh Lamhe', 'Zindaggi Rocks' and 'Utthaan' are the confirmed releases on September 29th. Out of these only 'Wo Lamhe' seems to be all set to hit the bull's eye while 'Zindaggi Rocks' may be a dark horse in the running. 'Utthan' sees a delayed release after being ready for quite a while.

The number of releases this September may only increase if films like 'Iqraar - By Chance', 'Jaana - Let's Fall In Love' and 'Mera Dil Leke Dekkho' get some screen space to arrive!
