What kind of an initial do you expect War 2 to take on Thursday, August 14?
– Bumper! The trade is not quite confident about an earth-shattering start to the film but that’s because most of them are unable to understand and assess the magic of the Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR jodi. The thrill of watching them together on screen is something they cannot fathom today but will realise when the film hits the screens.
With YRF’s Saiyaara still running in the cinemas, won’t the same production house’s War 2 eat eat into its collections from 14th August onwards? Couldn’t YRF have postponed the release of War 2?
– What you say is not easy, practically speaking. Yash Raj Films kept a gap of four weeks between the release of the two films, and that must’ve seemed good enough by any stretch of imagination at the time when SAIYAARA had not been released. To change the release plan of WAR 2 now or even one or two weeks earlier would’ve been an almost impossible task.
Why did Dhadak 2 fare so poorly at the box-office?
– DHADAK 2 may have done far better if it had been made as a love story set against the backdrop of a casteist society. But what it turned out to be was a film about casteism set against the backdrop of a love story.
