The movie emerged as a major commercial success and set the stage for him to break the language barrier. He, however, could not keep the momentum going as <em>Shamitabh </em>didn't do exceptionally well at the box office. With<em> Atrangi Re</em>, he is set to try his luck in Hindi cinema again.</p>.<p>Judging by the trailer, he is the right choice for the film as his character is a Tamil. His chemistry with Sara Ali Khan too appears to be intriguing as this is a fresh pairing.<br /><br /><strong>Will Rai bounce back from Zero debacle?</strong><br /><br />Rai, who made his Bollywood debut with <em>Strangers</em>, rose to fame with the 2011 release <em>Tanu Weds Manu.</em> The film was set in Kanpur and hit the right notes as everything about it -- right from the dialogues to the cultural references -- were as 'desi' as can be. He scored hits with <em>Raanjhanaa </em>and <em>Tanu Weds Manu Returns</em> . The filmmaker, however, suffered a setback when <em>Zero</em>, the biggest film of his career, bombed at the box office. He might be able to redeem himself if<em> Atrangi Re</em> emerges as a 'digital blockbuster'.<br /><br /><strong>ARR at his best</strong><br /><br />Oscar-winner A R Rahman is inarguably one of Indian cinema's biggest music composers. He impressed fans with his work in <em>Mimi </em>earlier this year. The <em>Param Sundari</em> song in particular became quite popular among fans. He has scored a winner with <em>Atrangi </em>as tracks such as <em>Garda </em>and<em> Chak Chak</em> have become popular. among music lovers. Rai's flicks normally feature well-shot song sequences. The lively <em>Jugni </em>from<em> Tanu Weds Manu</em> is a case in point. It will be interesting to see wether<em> Atrangi Re</em> keeps the trend going.</p>.<p><br /><strong>Akshay to work his 'magic'</strong><br /><br />Akshay Kumar added a new dimension to the 'OTT vs theatres' debate when his 2020 release <em>Laxmii </em>opened to an overwhelming response on a streaming platform despite mixed reviews. He subsequently tried to help cinemas regain their mojo with <em>Bellbottom</em> and <em>Sooryavanshi</em>. </p>.<p>While the spy-thriller failed to find commercial success, the cop drama set the box office on fire. With <em>Atrangi Re</em>, he is to return to the OTT space. The 'Khiladi' plays the role of a magician in the film and his look has already garnered attention. The fact that he paired opposite Sara, who is nearly 30 years younger than him, has piqued the curiosity of fans. It remains to be seen whether the pair looks good on screen.</p>
