One new Hindi movie opens in Chicago area theaters on August 21, 2015. Sadly, it isn’t Manjhi: The Mountain Man but All Is Well, a comedy whose trailer promises lots of yelling and pee jokes. The only reasons for optimism are that it’s directed by Umesh Shukla of OMG fame and stars Abhishek Bachchan, who’s good in comedies.
All Is Well opens Friday at MovieMax Cinemas in Niles, AMC South Barrington 30 in South Barrington, and Regal Cantera Stadium 17 in Warrenville. It has a listed runtime of 2 hrs. 7 min.
Brothers carries over for a second week at all three of the above theaters, plus the AMC River East 21 in Chicago, Regal Gardens Stadium 1-6 in Skokie, and Marcus Addison Cinema in Addison.
The South Barrington 30 and Cantera 17 carry over both Drishyam and Bajrangi Bhaijaan, which also sticks around at MovieMax.
The Pakistani film Bin Roye gets another week at the South Barrington 30.
Other Indian films playing in the Chicago area this weekend:
- Kick 2 (Telugu) at MovieMax and Muvico Rosemont 18 in Rosemont
- Srimanthudu (Telugu) at MovieMax, Rosemont 18, Century Stratford Square in Bloomingdale, and Cinemark at Seven Bridges in Woodridge
- Baahubali at MovieMax (Telugu and Tamil) and South Barrington 30 (Hindi)

Congrats to the producers of All is Well for releasing the year’s Worst trailer…
Ha! Well said, Mike.
