In spite of a few success stories, will year 2022 go down in history as a bad year for the Hindi film trade?
– Yes, it definitely will go down in history as a terrible year for the Hindi film trade because a lot of big Hindi films had to bite the dust. Of course, dubbed versions of several South and Hollywood films did well this year, besides some Hindi films. But let’s hope that the year-end, at least, is terrific. After all, we have two eagerly awaited films — Hollywood’s AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER and Bollywood’s CIRKUS — hitting the screens in the last month of the year.
When will the trailer of Pathaan be out?
– Only in January 2023. It is heard that Yash Raj Films will first release two songs from PATHAAN this month while the trailer will follow only next month. Since December is the season for weddings and parties, the producer is releasing the songs in the hope that they will gain popularity by being played at weddings and parties.
What did you think of the trailer of Cirkus?
– It promises entertainment to the fullest. It is very colourful and star-studded. And it has a lot of ‘shock’ value. You will understand the ‘shock value’ part of my reply after you watch the trailer.
