Why couldnt Befikre beat Bajirao Mastani? - Page 2

Because Befikre its a bad film...BM was superb..People here loves to hate SLB but he is a superior filmmaker than the likes of Adi Chopra, Karan Johar and many others

A bad movie is a bad movie is a bad movie.

Its quote obvious...Ranveer's own box office pull is of Varun Dhawan's level and BM have box office queen Deepu

He will again score with Padmavati

He's yet to establish a fanbase without Deepika.
Even in this forum, there are only a handful of RS fans and rest are RS-DP shippers.

Varun is a massy star, RK is pretty much a multiplex hero. Only RS could have managed to please both groups but he's lacking something to connect with both the sections IMO.

Because people prefer to see ranveer fully clothed rather than in his padded chaddhi..

Some facts and figures which shows Ranveer's capacity as a hero without Deepika.


Indicine comparison

Sultan 36.5
Dhoni 21.3
FAN 19.2
Housefull3 15.2
Rustom 14.1
ADHM 13.3
Airlift 12.4
Baaghi 11.9
Dishoom 11.1
Befikre 10.4

His film with hit music and Adi Chopra brand opened lesser than Varun's Dishoom, Ranbir's ADHM and Tiger's Baaghi. Not like any of those had extraordinary reviews.


Bollywood Hungama's comparison


Ae Dil Hai Mushkil - Rs. 13.3 crore

2 States - Rs. 12.28 crore

Cocktail - Rs. 11 crore

Tamasha - Rs. 10.87 crore

Dil Dhadakne Do - Rs. 10.5 crore

Befikre - Rs. 10.36 crore

to be fair n honest then befikre did nt work for:

1.the script looks for ultra modern high society ppl.
middle class cnt identify with adi's idea of no strings
attached relationships.however progressive India
might have become we still have our roots that
does nt support sensual pleasure..we believe in love.
nt lust n pleasures.

2.the target audience is the youth only.most elders wnt approve such
a vulgar movie..n nt all youth are ranveer fans.so befikre is
avoidable for them.nt everyone feels the need to like ranveer or find
his fart poop story humorous n cool.so many could want to maintain distance
from such a man after all personal choice is based on individual's
discretion.
