The T shirt wore by Zac Efron has a wrong spelling. It should be BAY not BAE. Some low IQ person designed the shirt. Hope he gets high IQ like me.

The popularity of Priyanka outside India is increasing day by day . She started singing and her singles got a fabulous response outside India . Then she did Quantico in which she is playing the main role . To get work in Hollywood TV Series is not a small thing and now she is doing Baywatch with Dwayne Johnson . She is playing the negative role which means she is not in a supporting role nor in a cameo . It is great to see the journey of Priyanka with Aitraaz, Krrish, Fashion, 7 Khoon Maaf, Kaminey, What’s Your Raashee, Barfi, Agneepath, Mary Kom and Bajirao Mastani . The release date is pretty good and the presence of PC will boost the collections in India . Cheers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hollywood film’s Box Office collection is not Actor dominant if film score good Rotten Tomatoes score & caters some interesting Trailer & promos & so film will open well & then all depends on WOM.
BTW @Indicine Deepika’s XXX also announce their release date.pls write an article on that because XXX is much bigger film than Baywatch.
Only Waiting For XXX3 Return of Dancer cage
Hollywood’s good step for strengthening their business in Indian market
I will watch this film, only for Alexandra daddario, I love her so much.
Have not seen quantico…but priyanka chopra is one my fav. Since fashion…hotness with the talent
looks like dwein johnson n pc cant get enough of each other..
nice brown couple..
I never cared to watch Baywatch TV series, it was too boring for me. I’m surprised that PC signed this movie, as she was doing some good movies in Bollywood lately.
Star cast looks good, Dwayne is one of the biggest names, Alexandra Daddario is beautiful, PC is talented and Zac Efron is.. well Zac Efron.
