What is the average time you would like to spend in a theater for watching a film? We are guessing your patience levels can stand up to 2 hours 30 minutes at the maximum. But what will be the situation if you have to watch a film for a total of 3 hours and 8 minutes? Well, a situation like that is coming soon.
The Bollywood flick Happy New Year runs to the duration of 3 hours and 8 minutes. At times like these where viewers want quickly served movies, what is this marathon duration.

Barring the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone factor, it will be a real challenge for director Farah Khan to prove this duration is justified. Let us see what happens.
