Monday Mayhem: Over 50% Plunge!

Hello, my Bollywood ke deewano! It’s your BFF and Bollywood ki bholi bhali jasoos, Khabree Kiran, here to spill the chai on the latest happenings in the world of glitz and glam. So, sit tight, grab your popcorn, and let’s dive into the masaledaar world of "Azaad"!

Monday Blues for Azaad! 🎬

Toh bhai, Aaman Devgan and Rasha Thadani ki debut film, "Azaad," has wrapped up its pehla weekend, and oh boy, was it a rollercoaster ride! 🎢 The film, a high-budget historical drama by Abhishek Kapoor, had quite the shaky start. Despite the added tadka of Ajay Devgn’s cameo, it seems like audience ka dil dhadakne ka naam hi nahi le raha.

Day 1 saw a decent kick-off with 1.50 crores. But alas, the Monday scaries hit hard, dragging collections down to a measly 0.65-0.75 crores. Yeh kya ho raha hai, bhai? 🤔 The film is already facing tough takkar from other big releases like "Pushpa 2", "Fateh", and "Emergency". Total collection so far? A not-so-impressive 5.40-5.50 crores.

High Budget, Low Returns 💸

Now, let’s talk paisa. "Azaad" was made with a whopping budget of 80 crores+. Imagine launching two debutants with that kind of paisa! But so far, only 6.5% of the cost has come back to the kitty. At this rate, reaching even 10 crores lifetime seems harder than finding a needle in a haystack. Flop ka tag lagne se bachna mushkil hi nahi, namumkin hai! 😅

Kiran’s Gyan 🤓

Bollywood mein, success ka formula toh kisi ke paas nahi hai. But one thing’s for sure, budget bada ho ya chota, audience ko sirf mazedaar kahani chahiye. Sometimes, it’s not about the stars or the budget, but about the heart of the story. So, dear Bollywood, agle baar, thoda soch samajh kar dekhna!
