This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Happy New Year (sometimes abbreviated as HNY) is a 2014 Indian Hindi-language heist comedy thriller film directed by Farah Khan and produced by Gauri Khan under the banner of Red Chillies Entertainment. The film features an ensemble cast of Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood, Boman Irani, Vivaan Shah and Jackie Shroff. Distributed worldwide by Yash Raj Films, it follows Charlie, a street fighter who assembles a ragtag team of acquaintances and enlists a street urchin and a bar dancer to execute a heist to clear his father's name and avenge his offender, businessman Charan Grover; in the process, the heist, set against the backdrop of the World Dance Championship, where his team goes on to represent India, brings them face to face against a dissident Grover, who owns the defending winners, Team Korea.
Made on a total budget of ₹140 crore (US$22.94 million), the film marked the third collaboration of the lead actor, producer and director; they previously worked on Main Hoon Na (2004) and Om Shanti Om (2007), the latter of which also featured Padukone as the female lead in her debut.
Happy New Year was released on Diwali 2014 in Dubai & India with dubbed versions in Tamil and Telugu, and gained around 4,200 screens in Hindi and 800 screens in Tamil and Telugu, and released on Christmas 2015 in France & United Kingdom with dubbed version in French, English, Hindi and Arabic, that was the biggest film release in India up until then. It received mixed reviews from critics, who appreciated the cast performances, soundtrack, humor, cinematography, production design and visual effects, but criticized the writing, length and pace. It grossed ₹44.97 crore (US$7.37 million) in India on its opening day which was the record for the highest domestic opening for an Indian film at that time and eventually grossing a total of ₹408 crore (US$66.85 million) worldwide. Despite mixed reviews, it became a huge success.
At the 60th Filmfare Awards, Happy New Year received 2 nominations – Best Supporting Actor (Bachchan) and Best Female Playback Singer (Shreya Ghoshal for "Manwa Laage"). The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences features the film's script in their library.
