After Baahubali, Bollywood is desperate for hits, says trade analyst Taran Adarsh
Baahubali: The Conclusion’s income is the ideal case of delineating box office record. It hit the cinema halls on April 28 and made its way to rake in around Rs. 1500 crores in just a few days and the numbers are still going on day by day.
The flick’s Hindi edition got distributed by ace personality of Bollywood Karan Johar and turned out to be the first ever Hindi movie to hit the Rs. 500 crore income mark – in doing so, the stunning success has lifted up the bar at the ticket booth really high.
Whilst only overtly determined film producers would anticipate competing with this magnum opus Baahubali 2’s BO numbers, flicks rolled out after the big budget movie, have hardly managed to show some pace at the ticket booths.
As per trade forecaster Taran Adarsh, who assesses box office facts strictly, stated currently is a time when “the Hindi film biz is worried for hits.”
Flicks that could have experienced a huge run at BO because of its star cast, also gathered unanticipated outcomes.
Bollywood has Big B’s Sarkar 3, Sallu Bhai’s Tubelight, Junior Kapoor’s Jagga Jasoos and King Khan’s Jab Harry Met Sejal that hit theaters since April onwards however none of the flick could make the grade.
“Mere star power isn’t enough,” wrote Mr. Taran.
In the meantime, Baahubali 2’s proof has only been excelled by Aamir Khan’s big hit Dangal that was rolled out during December 2016 and been making good prodit in Chinese movie halls in recent times.
Jab Harry Met Sejal has already been in theatres since last Friday and raked in Rs. 52.90 crores whilst Salman Khan’s Eid offering hit the Rs. 100 crore mark.
“Tubelight, Jagga Jasoos, Munna Michael, Jab Harry Met Sejal… Bollywood is going through the worst phase… desperate for hits… what’s shocking, the biggies aren’t fetching the desired start at the BO… Let’s NOT blame the audience… The problem lies within… The biggest of stars need a solid story and captivating screenplay to stand on feet, to sprint, to win… Mere star power isn’t enough,” Taran wrote in his post.
At the moment, Bollywood has no option but to hopes from Akshay Kumar’s Toilet Ek Prem Katha, stated.
He said: “Post Baahubali 2, the biz has hit rock bottom… Will Toilet Ek Prem Katha prove a saviour? Let’s hope it bails out the industry.”
