0

Anurag Kashyap is one of the most interesting directors in Bollywood with several cult films in his filmography. Over the past few years, the maverick director has been seen in several Tamil films as an antagonist such as Imaikka Nodigal, Maharaja, and a brief appearance in Leo.

The Bollywood director in a recent media interaction made some serious comments on the functioning of the Bollywood industry. The director accused the Bollywood heroes of trying to become stars and not better actors. He said that everything in Bollywood is about marketing and nobody wants to become a better actor. The entitlement of these actors has created a tough situation for many to work in the industry.

Shockingly, Anurag Kashyap added that he is “disappointed and disgusted” with his industry and will be shifting his base to southern India to do some stimulating work.

These statements from a director of his caliber have raised serious questions over the functioning of Bollywood which is already facing a creative block. Their heavy reliance on remakes or south directors such as Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Atlee and Murugadoss have raised quite a few questions on the ability of Bollywood to churn out original movies.

Bollywood reacts to Naga Vamsi’s Comments

Bollywood Reacts to Naga Vamsi’s Comments. Producer Naga Vamsi’s satirical remarks against Bollywood seem to have sparked a row of controversy. Recently, Senior Hindi Producer Boney Kapoor and Telugu producer Naga Vamsi took part in a producers’ roundtable by Galatta Plus and discussed Bollywood vs South Films. During the discussion, Naga Vamsi talked about how Hindi cinema has reinvented itself due to the popularity of films made in the South which led to a heated argument between him and Boney. Bollywood Director Sanjay Gupta and the other media handles are now condemning the way Naga Vamsi spoke with Boney Kapoor.

Vamsi interrupted Boney during the roundtable and said, “One thing, sir, you have to accept this. It might sound really harsh. We, South Indians, have changed the way you [Bollywood] look at cinema. Because, you guys [Bollywood], were stuck in making films for Bandra and Juhu. You witnessed a change with Baahubali, RRR, Animal, and Jawan.”

Boney Kapoor disagreed with Vamsi and said, “In this forum, we can’t be talking about every bit of knowledge we know. We need to talk in broader terms. When I say Mughal-E-Azam, Baahubali, and all that, it’s not that I’ve missed out on other films. I know those films. At the tip of my fingers, I can rattle out those names. But, it’s nothing like Telugu cinema has taught Indians. I don’t believe that. It was always there. Even the hero (Allu Arjun) of Pushpa 2 said that he is a big fan of Amitabh Bachchan. He could have said that he was a big fan of NT Rama Rao.”  

As Bollywood reacts to Naga Vamsi’s Comments, the netizens are quoting the video of Naga Vamsi and criticizing him. Even some Telugu movie lovers also agree that Naga Vamsi should not have interrupted when Boney Kapoor was talking. 

Anil Ravipudi’s Marketing Skills Hit the Bullseye

0

When it comes to success rate, Anil Ravipudi ranks quite high amongst his peers in the industry. Despite having a great success rate and blockbusters with big stars, his movies have faced quite some criticism on social media and have even been termed cringe comedies.

But for a majority of the audience as well as industry insiders, Anil Ravipudi is one of the promising directors in Tollywood. He has always managed to attract family audiences to theatres with his promotional strategy and content.

All his films have worked well at the Box office and even F3 which was not a big hit compared to Sarileru Neekevvaru, F2, and Bhagavanth Kesari managed to bring audiences to theatres. Now Sankranthiki Vastunnam will be released alongside Game Changer and Daaku Maharaaj. Both these films are bigger in scale than the Venkatesh-Aishwarya Rajesh and Meenakshi Chaudhary starter.

But Anil Ravipudi with his marketing skills and Bheem’s blockbuster audio has managed to create a much bigger buzz for Sankranthiki Vastunnam than the other two biggies. There are massive expectations on the Venkatesh film and the combination of a family entertainer for Sankranti can surely deliver a blockbuster.


Mohanlal Delivers Mollywood’s Biggest Disaster

0

Mohanlal delivers Mollywood’s biggest disaster. Barroz, the latest Malayalam film is the debut directorial film of the big star Mohanlal. The film was made on a huge budget and was on sets for a very longer time with because of the continuous reshoots. Also it was made with 3D technology. The production team member officially confirmed that the movie budget was around 150 Cr.

But the movie received disastrous numbers at the box office. For the first five days, the film has just collected 14.5 Cr gross worldwide and the closing will be less than 30 Cr Gross, which indicates that the final share will be less than 15 Cr. It means the movie collected just 10% of the budget. The trade is also in shock as Mohanlal delivers Mollywood’s biggest disaster with Barroz.

Even though the film gets some numbers because of non-theatrical and digital, satellite rights, those numbers will not be even the 1/3rd of the budget. So the movie will certainly face the biggest loss in Mollywood’s history.
