What is common between the two films which release in a fortnight from now i.e. 8th February? Well, both Superstar and Mithya have Bollywood as the central element with their lead protagonists aspiring to be Bollywood stars.
However, apart from the basic germ of the two films, the entire setup, layout, genre and treatment of the two films is poles apart. While Superstar is a complete 'masala' entertainer, Mithya takes a quirky route and follows an offbeat path. Directed by Rohit 'James' Jugraaj, Superstar has Kunal Khemu as the man aspiring to be a superstar. Enacting the first double role of his career, Kunal is said to be playing the dual roles of an aspiring star and an existing star.
On the other hand Ranvir Shorey is the lead protagonist in Rajat Kapoor directed Mithya who is a poor theater actor but believes himself to possess the talent that could make him a popular Bollywood star. The film traces his journey in a comic fashion as instead of becoming a film star, he gets embroiled in underworld dominated by the likes of Naseeruddin Shah, Vinay Pathak and Saurabh Shukla.
