There is no other reason for a film's failure other than its content not being good, said Bollywood star <keyword id="6357861" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="ranbir-kapoor" source="Orion">Ranbir Kapoor</keyword> on Wednesday as he opened up about the poor performance of his last release "<keyword id="6503823" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="shamshera" source="Orion">Shamshera</keyword>". <keyword id="53" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="kapoor" source="Orion">Kapoor</keyword> was speaking at the press conference here to promote his latest release "Brahmastra: Part One-Shiva", co-starring his actor-wife Alia Bhatt. Asked whether he feels Hindi movies are being unfairly treated in recent times, Kapoor said, "I will give the example of my own film. I will not talk about other films. Few weeks ago, my film 'Shamshera' was released. I didn't feel any negativity." "The film didn't run at box office, it is probably because the audience didn't like the film. Eventually it is about the content," he added. In recent times, mainstream Hindi movies like Ranveer Singh's "Jayeshbhai Jordaar", Akshay Kumar's "Bachchhan Paandey", "Samrat Prithviraj" and "Raksha Bandhan", along with Aamir Khan-starrer "Laal Singh Chaddha", failed to register big numbers at the box office. Kapoor, known for movies such as "Rockstar", "Barfi!" and "Sanju", said the audiences will only be entertained if they are served good content. "Who doesn't want to go to the movies to experience a different emotion, get moved by characters, be entertained, get a great laugh, cry and feel something? We all want to feel that. If a film doesn't work, there is no other reason. It is because the content is not good," he added. "Brahmastra", directed by his frequent collaborator and close friend <keyword id="66166" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="ayan-mukerji" source="Orion">Ayan Mukerji</keyword>, has been in the making for a long time and faced several delays due to various reasons. Kapoor said no one, including his father, late cinema icon Rishi Kapoor, understood what it takes to make a film like "Brahmastra", which has been mounted on a huge budget and is loaded with visual effects. "It's been so long... No one really understood what it takes to make a film like this because no one has really done this, especially people we know. "The film has been going on for so many years. I remember when my father was alive, I used to lie that I was shooting 'Brahmastra'. I used to hide it and say I'm shooting for some other movie," the 39-year-old actor said. He also credited Mukerji, the director of his two blockbusters "Wake Up Sid" (2008) and "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" (2013), for his growth as an actor. "I have known Ayan since 2008 when he narrated 'Wake Up Sid' to me. I didn't know him before that. He is someone who just came and narrated his entire story. He was sitting on the floor and he was narrating the film for me, saying it would take just 1 hour but it took 5 hours to narrate that film. "I really felt that energy from a young filmmaker and I was like, 'Wow, this guy really has a story to tell.' He is passionate about every word, every character and I could feel that energy. I think art is about energy. You have to feel the energy within other people." Kapoor said he is aware that he will not get another opportunity to do a movie like "Brahmastra" again. "It's not like that after 'Brahmastra', I will do only these kinds of films. I know I won't get an opportunity like this again. I hope going forward I get other opportunities to showcase other different characters that I can portray," he added. "Brahmastra Part One: Shiva , which also features megastar <keyword id="6357912" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="amitabh-bachchan" source="Orion">Amitabh Bachchan</keyword>, Nagarjuna and <keyword id="6370219" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="mouni-roy" source="Orion">Mouni Roy</keyword>, is a joint production of Star Studios, Dharma Productions, Prime Focus and Starlight Pictures.

'Shamshera' didn't work because content was not good: Ranbir Kapoor

This is the view held by five brokerage firms — ICICI Securities/Direct, Motilal Oswal, Prabhudas Lilladher and ShareKhan. They believe that good movies can help them replicate the March success which came with superhits like the controversial Kashmir Files; Rajamouli’s RRR, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s period drama Gangubai Kathiawadi, followed up by KGF 2 in April. “They witnessed a March — which was the best ever in the history, led by superlative performances of movies,” ICICI Direct said in its views on PVR and INOX both. The March footfalls made up for half of the Jan-March quarters footfalls in theaters. But both these companies need more than a good month to turn things around. A strong recovery in footfalls and sales of these listed theatre companies will be driven by ‘strong content slate lines’, as per ICICI Direct. If all goes well, it estimates that both these companies can cross their pre-covid earnings in the current financial year. These companies are in desperate need of a ‘recovery worthy’ movie releases. In spite of a good revenue growth, INOX and PVR both are still in the red — posting losses of ₹239 crore and ₹478 crore in the fourth quarter, respectively. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="The Khan-Karan factor" comment="subhead" text="The Khan-Karan factor">The Khan-Karan factor</cmsannotation> The next phase of turnaround can come from another set of long-delayed and much-hyped movies with A-list stars. All the three Khans have movies planned this year — which had become a rare occurrence even in the years before the pandemic. Aamir Khan has Lal Singh Chaddha, that’s a remake of Tom Hanks’ Forrest Gump. Salman Khan also promises another movie from his formulaic stable — called Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali. The King of Khans — Shah Rukh Khan too is releasing a movie after four years called Pathan. The fact that these Khan movies are ‘much-awaited’ can help drive footfalls. INOX CEO Alok Tandon spoke of an influx of good releases in FY23, in a conversation with Business Insider India. “2022 or financial year 2023 will be one of the best for the Indian film industry… I feel like we have some very, very strong lineup,” Tandon said. He also confirmed that March was their best month yet and the movie business had been operating in limited capacity over the last few years due to Covid-19. Then other bankable stars like Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor too have releases this year — at least one of them is bankrolled by Dharma Productions, lead by Karan Johar. <cmsannotation

superhit</cmsannotation> The many high profile releases must deliver as per expectations with ‘superhits’, for the companies to get back to their pre-Covid financials and footfalls. “Deterioration of content quality might affect footfalls and advertising revenue growth, inability to take adequate price hikes at the right time might affect earnings given rising input cost, and inability to maintain cost savings initiatives likely to impact operating profitability,” a ShareKhan report read. A lot of high profile releases also fell flat in the months ahead of March. There was a big buzz around Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone-starrer 83 — which was based on the 1983 cricket world cup that India won. However, it disappointed movie distributors as it was declared a theatrical flop. Singh’s Jayeshbhai Jordaar too did not live up to its expectations. Kangana Ranaut’s Dhakkad, Akshay Kumar’s Bachchan Pandey, Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam too failed to impress the audiences. Apart from 83, all the other movies were released after India had overcome the third Covid-19 wave. Pushpa and Spider Man in the Hindi belt — both released in December along with 83 — were among the few movies that managed to do well despite Omicron fears.
