FAN is getting unnecessary hate here because srk stars in it .
talaash was neither critically acclaimed (only kareena's performance was praised) nor a BO success .

I stand by what I said. I personally enjoyed Fan more than Talaash but I don't think Fan can be called a 'thriller' tbh. Nor was Talaash a good thriller IMO cause even its ending was kinda lame. But I guess you can say that general audience appreciated Talaash more or it could be a case of Aamir's goodwill from 3 Idiots having a flow-on affect on the box office collection of Talaash. SRK right now does not bear any goodwill and it's understandable why. 😆

Plus I think it's pretty silly to blame an entire genre for a flopping film. 😕 In my view every single genre can work depending on how neat the screenplay is.

For once i am not bothered about BO for this film but yes the amount of hate without watching it definitely bothers me.
I am so happy that shahrukh rose about BO numbers to do this one , besides his top class acting the advanced technological work done in this ( VFX, Prosthetics ) is commendable and i am hopeful that for once he can make a biggest movie which he always dreamed of .

Talaash was a great movie. Loved it. Had a pretty good soundtrack too, Jee Le Zara is still a fav.

The right statement should be a thriller doesnt make as much money as a masala entertainer...
Its very difficult to make a proper thriller..most of them loose plot somewhere in between..not every filmmaker can play with a dark subject...Sujoy has that element in him..RGV once had

Taalash was a brilliant film till the supernatural twist came..what a shame
But aamir was soo good in it !!!awesome
I'm yet to watch fan..so dont know how good it is or bad
But i'm so glad SRK is experimenting..but a films business depends on how well the film is made not on the performances alone
A fan type of movie is bound to do less business than Dilwale type anyday
Bitter truth

kareena and nawazdin were better than amir in talaash. BUT, claps to amir, once again letting others walk away with accolades in his movie.
gotta say I respect this guy for this.

Far be it from me to defend SRK . But Talaash never faced the scrutiny that Jai Ho or Fan faced for underperforming. Why is that ???? Talaash failed to cross 100 crore (maybe even 90 ) 😆 . That was a time when more films were doing 100 crore .

Talaash should have done better than it did but maybe the ending was a kinda turnoff overall a great film loved it!! It had soulful songs and also A list heroines obviously it helps a bit but Fan cant be be blamed for it genre should have atleast done 125cr
