March 27, 2009 by TFSJ · Leave a Comment
On the whole, Ek – The Power Of One will appeal to the audience in small centres and the masses, mainly in circuits like Maharashtra (due to Nana Patekar), U.P. and Bihar.

What if history, at any point in time, had taken an alternate course? This is a question that makes for interesting speculation. In Warner Bros. Pictures’ Watchmen (A), the course of modern America, protected by a gang of superheroes, is examined from an “alternate time line”.
