  • The movie, starring Saif Ali Khan and Sonakshi Sinha, was released on Friday.

  • Based in a small town in Uttar Pradesh, Bullett Raja has been described as a festival of guns, grime, and glory and it has just a week to utilise its potential.
  • "The film will go steady just for a week because next Friday R...Rajkumar will release. It looks very impressive and considering the fact that it's a Prabhu Deva film, there is a lot of hope from the film. His record has been very strong so far," said Thadani.
