Why did Street Dancer 3D not open at Rs. 12 to 14 crore? It was the general impression in the trade that the film would net around Rs. 14 crore on the first day.
– Had it been titled ABCD – ANY BODY CAN DANCE 3, it would’ve opened at Rs. 14 crore. The trade estimated this figure under the assumption that the public would throng the cinemas as if it were ABCD 3. But the fact is, the public did not consider it as a film of the popular ABCD franchise. Hence the loyal fan base of ABCD did not rush to the cinemas to watch it on the first day.
Which is the costliest film being made in Bollywood?
–Perhaps, BRAHMASTRA, being produced by Karan Johar and directed by Ayan Mukerji. Ronnie Screwvala and Aditya Dhar have also announced ASHWATHAMA THE IMMORTAL with Vicky Kaushal in the lead role. That is touted to be one of the costliest films being made in Bollywood.
First, Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior, then Bhuj: The Pride Of India and followed by Maidaan. Is Ajay Devgan concentrating on real stories only?
– Yes, while TANHAJI: THE UNSUNG WARRIOR is a historical, BHUJ: THE PRIDE OF INDIA and MAIDAAN are based on stories of two real people.
