A look at this week's hits and misses.
Kapil Sharma is a big hit on the big screen too!
His feature film debut Kis Kisko Pyar Karoon opened with excellent box office collections, and is earning profits from the first weekend itself.
The other releases -- Calendar Girls and Bhaag Johnny -- weren't that lucky.
