Ghoomer vs Other releases
Ghoomer unveils the tale of an ambitious female cricketer, who was on the brink of making her international debut but met with an accident that resulted in the loss of her right hand. This is a nightmare beyond imagination.
Then a failed and frustrated senior cricketer came to her life, this is the climax of this movie, it has a powerful story and direction of veteran filmmaker R Balki.
Gadar 2 and OMG 2 both have audiences, Gadar 2 offers mass entertainment with its action-packed storyline, while OMG 2 presents a sensitive social drama. Ghoomer draws inspiration from the shooting athlete Karoly Takacs, but R Balki opted for a cricket-oriented storyline due to cricket being one of the most loved sports in India.
