Last week was a disastrous one for Bollywood. Both the big releases, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Maidaan had a terrible run at the box office and the audience rejected them straightaway. Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff starter Bade Miyan Chote Miyan was in particular a massive letdown for the entire team.
The film is a heavy-budget action thriller which is made on a massive budget of Rs 350 Cr. Despite the large-scale promotions, the film failed to create any buzz and opened with disastrous numbers. In its 1st weekend, it opened with 39 Cr nett in India and 3 Million in overseas. The film crashed totally on Monday with just Rs 2 crore nett collection.
Going by the current trend, it looks extremely difficult for the film to collect 100 Cr gross worldwide in its lifetime. The terrible performance of the film has led to losses of more than 200 Cr on this film.
Due to the crash of non-theatrical market, the producers are now in difficult situations. The big stars are offered massive remunerations with the hope of getting record OTT offers. With big OTT deals drying up, all the burden has now fallen on the film’s theatrical run. And as we have seen in the case of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, no amount of star power and big budget film can save the film is the word of mouth is bad.
