Q. Which is the biggest actor director combination in hindi films?
Ans. It is Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya. Hum Aapke Hain Kaun and Maine Pyar Kiya are probably amongst the top ten hits of all time and Hum Saath Saath Hain was also huge. But all these films were some time ago and if Prem Ratan Dhan Payo does not match up then it will mean Aamir Khan and Raj kumar Hirani is the top combination.

Q. Can Mr. X be another Mr. India?
Ans. Mr. India was lopsided in that it did well in the four or five big cities. Mr X will have to do better as it can't really depend on appreciation from the five metros.

Q. Why is that so few Hindi films do well despite despite the craze in the country for them?
Ans. It can be said they were a craze, 20- 30 years back buttoday there are many other forms of entertainment and the bigger problem is most films are niche.There will also be a craze for a Dhoom 3 or Kick but these types are so few and you can't blame the audience for not being crazy about a Baby, Roy, NH 10, Badlapur or Detective Byomkesh Bakshi.

Q. Can Gabbar do lifetime business like Rowdy Rathore or will it have to settle for a Baby type total?
Ans. Lifetime totals are about content which is jnown after release but Rowdy Rathore will difficult to reach even if the content is good, That film had very strong word of mouth and ran for ten weeks in some single screens where even 3 Idiots or PK could not match that in the same theatre. Its hard to see that happening, Baby it have to beat to be a success.
