In 2009, the company released Blue, Run Bhola Run and Mr. Fraud. It has already released Luck with a negative result as it earned even less than Kidnap.
Blue was Shree Ashtavinayak's biggest project till date with its budget set to INR 100 crores. It was an action film shot in the Bahamas and starring Sanjay Dutt, Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta and Zayed Khan. However, the film performed poorly at the box office, and got predominantly negative reviews.
