It's Sad that, if a new benchmark is set by some films, all together MOCKING will start for that just coz those set of films are Loved more as compare to those which Critics or those small no. of ppl only enjoy.

Aamir Khan who started 100 cr club, has 200 cr SOLO Film to his name, couldn't repeat the magic n couldn't touch 100 cr mark with his last release, so it ain't that much easy which ppl make it look like.

And it is not Tukka or Low Quality of films either which certain segment of Bollywood is now trying to project.

Sorry Billa I disagree with you here. I have watched many movies which did not crossed 100 crd i have loved those one more than 100crd. People taste have changed.

I didn't deny audience love for movies not touching 100 cr, It is that when those films are termed as MORE QUALITY FILMS & projected as loved more than 100 cr films, it is hilarious.

Coz if those film are loved more, it should have earned more. How come they earned even HALF or less than those 100 cr films??

He didn't say anything bad. He just said with this "exclusive club" people focus too much on making money, and not on other more important things like content...like they are pressurized to make money and ignore everything else. If you chase content, making memorable films, success will automatically follow. "Chase excellence, success follows"...don't chase success. ...the whole point of 3 Idiots was this only. 😆

Actually this case with every film. We don't know which films gonna be BB, hit or flop. These status might be not matter to us but it does for film industry. Actually it's very strange I was watching this old film might be from 80s. I loved it and I found it innocent story and realistic too but it did not do good. Why? Can anyone give the exact reason why the films dont work. Even if you have a popular actor. Is it story line, direction. No I don't think so anyone can tell that. I believe destiny, time and whatever God wants.

How much success does followed him in his whole career, a Finest actor with good timing in comedy?

Sweet, simple films, even matching those barometer of content he is talking, so how much success does he achieve?

It is now repetitive as people pointing no content in 100 cr films or just hinting as make more content based films.

There can be 100 silly points in those content movies also, difference here is they are still biased projection of quality cinema.

A lot of movies are smaller budgeted and don't get the recognition they deserve because they don't have the same amount of money geared towards promotions or any big celebrities backing it up. So many people just don't hear about smaller movies if huge actors like Salman Khan, SRK, Aamir Khan are not in them. And at the end of the day, star power sells. Tell me if you would have watched Ready if Salman wasn't in it? Or Wanted? Or another huge movie with your favorite big actor?

And so many innovative ideas are completely turned down by "bigger" actors because they fear the idea won't work.

Vicky Donor was something new. Nobody's made a movie on a sperm donor! (At least not that I know of...) And for that reason, when people were approached, they thought the writer was crazy for even considering to make a movie on the issue. But see, movie making at the end of the day should be art and not a business. It's true that if there weren't a business aspect to it, they wouldn't work at all but a fair bit of chance should be given to the so called "Art" movies as well.

I'm not saying that this 100 cr, 200 cr, whatever-crore movies should stop. Of course not! These movies definitely have a huge audience and people do enjoy them but when you make a movie out of the sheer business aspect rather than out of instinct or connecting to actual story, that's just wrong.

See the thing is Billa...you and I measure success differently. You think success is only BO...I think other things also matter :) He's been part of films like Chushme Buddoor, Saath Saath...

What's wrong with making more content based films? It's not like story and quality means it has to be serious or boring...really not sure why some people have this idea.

Tell me, 20 years down the line, is someone going to remember a Ready or an AAA?He's just saying make films people that stand the test of time...don't aim for "time pass" that people won't remember just a few months later.

Nothing wrong in those quality movies with story which acc. to some connect more, here when u point a certain section of films, which also connects in their own way & in large proportion, What else will come reply??

You could say this thing as make more movies which will be remembered for long time even without pointing at 100 cr films?

Does any 100 cr film claimed that they are movies which will be remembered for 100 years? A Masterpiece?? No. so why unnecessary questions around those films?

Even makers of Ghajini or 3 idiots were not having any idea as those films will set new LANDMARKs in bollywood, so how come we pointing fingers at those few selected films who made more success?

Those who wanna make films with quality n good story will always make, irrespective of any 100 cr club or 200 cr club, those who aiming at 100 cr club will do the same, when those 100 cr filmmakers n audience don't mock low earning films, why this much harsh treatment for them alone?

On the contrary, smaller movies with innovative concepts are the ones that are treated harshly by the industry. Not many bigger actors would take up a risky movie. People are doing it much more now and it's good to see that different genres are being accepted too. If Kahaani was made 5-10 years ago, it wouldn't have worked nearly as well as it did.

The point is not to corner any one movie or all the 100 cr. movies. It is to say that one shouldn't chase the 100 cr. dream, rather one should try to be innovative and stay true to the art form - which is to entertain. And if that form of entertainment crosses 100 crores, then that's excellent for the makers!
