Dhobi Ghat is a dull gentry film for a very select audience which likes to watch festival films. It will have to rely on Aamir Khan’s presence in its cast and the Republic Day holiday on Wednesday to take its collections to a somewhat respectable level, mainly in the big cities only. Recovery of the relatively low cost of the film (considering that it stars Aamir Khan, who has worked for free) does not seem to be a difficult proposition at all since it has taken a fair start in cities because of his name and it should also fetch a fair price for its satellite rights, again thanks to his name.
