Blue Movie-Video,Wallpapers,Preview

I am talking about the upcoming movie(not the color) here is little preview of the film -
       A treasure lays buried deep at the bottom of an ocean. There are many people,want to get there by risking life, be it theirs or someone else’s.
      The film is about a lost treasure, which three friends try to find. But in this hunt for the treasure, there’s deceit and betrayal by someone in the group.Akshay Kumar , Sanjay Dutt and Zayed Khan play the roles.
       Lara Dutta is cast opposite of Sanjay Dutt, while Katrina and Sunil Shetty plays important roles
Lara looks very sexy and Katrina is in a different look with lip pierced,the look is aggressive and that of wild girl who loves the risk factor,she look slim too(I like I like).
       ‘Blue’ is touted as Bollywood’s first underwater, action adventure thriller. Directed by Anthony D'Souza

       But I personally thinks the movie will be like 'Into the blue'(Paul Walker,Jessica Alba),Storyline of both films lools similar as the names too..
       Trailer of the movie looks just as Hollywood Movie with great sound by AR Rehman and Resul Pookutty
