After a somewhat mellow year at the box office in 2014, 2015 looks like a year full of promise. This year we will see some of the top names step out of their comfort zone and try something new. Bollywood critic Omar Qureshi gives us a lowdown on the best films to look forward to and the actors to put your money on

Bajirao Mastani
All eyes on Sanjay Leela Bhansali after Ram-Leela. Not to mention a repeat of Deepika and Ranveer’s sizzling chemistry.


Fan
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan will step out of his larger-than-life image to play a fan. His look in the film is top secret.


Dil Dhadakne Do
It will be Zoya’s film all the way and the best thing about her films is that she brings out every character even in an ensemble cast.


Piku
Vicky Donor director Shoojit Sircar trying something very different with Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone a very unusual combination.


Badlapur
Loverboy Varun Dhawan in a full beard, beefed up, going completely bloodthirsty for vengeance. Bring it on!


Bajrangi Bhaijaan
After the massive success of Ek Tha Tiger, this Kabir Khan affair promises to show a different Sallu bhai to the masses.


Tamasha
The Rockstar team of Ranbir and Imtiaz. Also, Ranbir and Deepika expected to recreate the magic of Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.


Detective Byomkesh Bakshy
Dibakar Banerjee, Yash Raj Films, Sushant Singh Rajput in a snazzy sleuth flick. Need we say more?


Shandaar
Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in a film made by Queen maker Vikas Bahl. Enough said.



Jagga Jasoos

Return of the winning Barfi combo of Anurag Basu and Ranbir Kapoor. Also, Ranbir and Katrina again after Rajneeti.


Indie corner
Margarita With a Straw. It has swept the international film festivals. Kalki Koechlin is a brilliant actress. I won’t be surprised if it turns out to be one of the best films we have ever seen.


Sequels


ABCD 2
Choreographer turned director Remo D’Souza making Varun do what he does best, shake a leg. Giving him company is one of the most promising young actresses Shraddha Kapoor.
 


No Entry Mein Entry

Salman Khan fans get to see him in a double role. And one of Bhai’s avatars will be called Prem. Joyride all the way.
 


Tanu Weds Manu

This is one story that we’d love to see go forward. Everybody wants to see more of Kangna Ranaut after Queen. And Madhavan is of course perfect onscreen husband material.


An important year for Ranbir Kapoor

Every year and every film is important to every actor associated with it. This year however is vital for Ranbir Kapoor. He has three major releases offering a stellar variety. Also he turns producer with Jagga Jasoos. So a lot riding on that one too.
