Was YJHD a Blockbuster only because of Ranbir ? - Page 2

Decent romcom + good looking pair with decent/ good chemistry + good ensemble cast + brilliant music + great production values + aggressive promotions = sure-shot blockbuster 😆

P.S. The film was not extraordinary but i don fault Ranbir for doing it cos you cant expect him do a Barfi or Rockstar every single time..I'd rather see him play Bunny now than 10 years later when he looks a lil too old to play a quintessential Bollywood hero..And i could still see Ayaan's touch in a few scenes..The second half was haphazard & disappointing mainly because it was coming after Wake Up Sid yet i'l maintain Ayaan is a brilliant writer..He din bother much cos he really wanted BO success this time 😆

I agree with what you have written except that did it really have aggresive promotions ? I thought it was averagely promoted.

Na Ranbir & DP went berserk promoting the film..It was one of the best promoted films..Most Dharma films are promoted well actually 😆

nahh, i have watched that movie... It's not RK's best, have to admit... Deepika has overshadowed him nicely in the movie... i don't even know why YJHD became such a big hit...i think it clicked because of several factors including exes coming together after such a public breakup so ppl were curious, music was good..and probably teenagers could relate to its romance...deepika ranbir acting in promotions like they are getting back etc😆..it was entertaining enough..but it is still a mystery why it was a big hit...but then in a country where kick, ETT can become blockbusters, any movie can😆.
it didn't impress me in any way..except badtameez dil song.

More than the actors or chemistry, the pillars of the movie were its story and the music. I remember being disappointed when I first watched it but now it always brings a smile on my face. IMO this was the best rom-com after JWM.

Yes it was. I went for him and not the pairing. Though i have to say it's only because of deepika I could sit through the whole movie. She was awesome!❤️
