Namaste, doston! It’s your favorite Bollywood spy, Khabree Kiran, here to spill the chai on some old but gold Bollywood drama. Ready for some masala? Grab your popcorn 🍿 and let’s dive into the epic 2016 clash between Akshay Kumar and Hrithik Roshan. Yes, I’m talking about the Rustom vs Mohenjo Daro fiasco! 😏
Rustom VS Mohenjo Daro: The Showdown
Picture this: the year is 2016, August 12th to be precise. Independence Day vibes are in the air, and so is the tension at the box office. Our khiladi Akshay Kumar brings out Rustom, a courtroom drama with a patriotic twist, while Hrithik Roshan waltzes in with Mohenjo Daro, a historical epic. One movie soared, the other… well, let’s just say it sank faster than the Titanic. 💥
Box Office Tally: Who Earned What?
Rustom hit a jackpot with ₹14.11 crore on its first day and a whopping ₹50.42 crore over the weekend. On the flip side, Hrithik’s Mohenjo Daro managed ₹8.87 crore on opening day and ₹30.54 crore by the end of the weekend. The audience had spoken, and they were chanting "Akshay, Akshay!" 🤑
Bollywood Bias? Hrithik Thinks So!
So, did Bollywood play favorites? According to bichara Hrithik, the industry was a bit biased. In one of his interviews, he subtly hinted at the lack of support, saying, "It is a good thing. It’s a fraternity. If someone needs support then we must support." Hmm, Hrithik, kya yeh jealousy ki boo hai? 😜
Rustom’s Financial Glory
Rustom wasn’t just a hit; it was a blockbuster. Made on a budget of ₹40-45 crore, it raked in a lifetime collection of ₹127.49 crore. The theatrical rights sold for ₹39 crore in India and ₹17 crore overseas. Satellite rights? Another ₹23 crore. And the music rights? ₹8 crore more! Akshay Kumar was laughing all the way to the bank. 💰
Mohenjo Daro’s Sinking Ship
On the other hand, Ashutosh Gowariker’s Mohenjo Daro had a budget of ₹125 crore but only managed a lifetime collection of ₹58 crore. It did earn about ₹60+ crore from theatrical, satellite, and music rights, but still, it was no match for Akshay’s Rustom. Hrithik, better luck next time! 😅
Kiran’s Gyan: Bollywood Ki Kahani
Bollywood, dosto, is a jungle where only the fittest survive. Sometimes, it’s not just about the script or acting; it’s about the timing, the buzz, and yes, the jhugad within the industry. So, next time you see a box office clash, remember, it’s not just a battle of films; it’s a battle of egos, yaaron! 🤷♀️
Toh, that’s all for today folks! Stay tuned for more Bollywood gossip only with your one and only Khabree Kiran. Aur haan, remember to sprinkle a little sarcasm in your life; it makes everything tastier!
