We often see fans making posts of YT views and record set by Teaser, Songs etc.
We all are guilty of boasting about "so many million views in 1 day" !!
I think when we rejoice in our YT views records, we forget that YT is free whereas watcing movie will cost us money. We watch many free videos but we will probably not pay for even 2 videos, if we have to.
I hope after BBD debacle, we all will stop giving importance to YT views. 70 million Kala Chasma didn't get BBD a decent opening?!!! I agree that movies run on WOM, but opening is indicator of Buzz, YT views and star power. BBD had it all + hit songs with million of views. What happened? Do we give too much importance to social media?
Lets discuss YT views, Buzz, hit songs etc and how much it helps a movie.
PS - This is NOT a BBD bashing post. BBD is a recent example, so using that for reference.
PPS - I am also gulity of boasting YT views of Salman, so do not paste my previous posts😉
