5 Reasons Why The First Half Of 2018 Would Be Fresh In Our Memories For A Long Time

It is almost hard to believe that we are already in the second half of 2018. Looking back at the last 6 months, it has truly been a crazy time for every Bollywood fan out there. From much-awaited movies like Padmavaat to Race 3 or Sanju to a staggering number of celebrity weddings, there has been just so many moments in the first half of 2018 that has been absolutely remarkable.

Here are 5 things that happened in the first half of 2018 that will remember for a very long time.

Sridevi’s Demise

One of the most unfortunate and devastating things that happened in 2018 was the sudden and completely unexpected demise of superstar Sridevi. Not only it created a massive media storm but it made the entire country weep with Kapoor family and especially daughter Jahnvi who was just months away from her Bollywood debut.

High Profile Link-Ups

This year has also had some major, major high profile link ups. While Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt admitting to their relationship did not stop grabbing headlines, Priyanka Chopra also joined the bandwagon by taking her relationship with Hollywood star Nick Jonas to the public and even getting Nick to India to meet her family and friends.

Sonam Kapoor’s Wedding

Not that we have not seen big, fat Bollywood weddings, but Sonam Kapoor’s wedding changed the meaning of lavish and extravagant forever. No one in their living memory can remember a wedding that literally brought the entire Bollywood together. From giving us style goals to live to epic moments like Shah Rukh, Salman, Ranveer and Anil Kapoor dancing together, Sonam Kapoor’s wedding was one thing we would remember the first half of 2018 for!

An Unprecedented Number Of Weddings

To be honest, not just Sonam Kapoor, this year has seen an unprecedented number of celebrity wedding in the first half of the year. From TV celebs like Gautam Rode, Deepika Kakkar or Gaurav to Neha Dhupia, Shweta Tripathi and of course Sonam Kapoor in Bollywood, celebrity weddings are another thing that we will remember 2018 for.

A Superhit Every Month

In the last couple of years, there has hardly been a more profitable first half than 2018 in Bollywood. So far the year has had at least one superhit every month and sometimes even more than one every month and we cannot think of another year in which two massively profitable films like Race 3 and Sanju released in the same thing. From Padmaavat to Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety to Raid and Veere Di Wedding, 2018’s first half has been remarkably profitable for Bollywood.
