I stand by all I wrote, but I did misread your statement of goal post movers. I went on overdrive because now the public will get a bunch of muddled information, from calling those who do not care for the movie, low IQ people, or saying that those who do not like the film are being intolerant to the mentally ill. ekta has even stated that her motives are to back one art film per year, (as if she does not care that it flops, because she is doing a public service!) Truth is that Balaji MP really needed a hit. At any rate I digress...

A BIG I am sorry, to you,

That's why all the trade analysts have boycotted this movie. Rohit Jaiswal took a direct dig at the fudging of numbers.

Highest paid actress my foot!

Just like Manikarnika budget went from 130 Crs to 80 Crs, even this film went from 45 Crs to 19 Crs 😆

... The producers do sell their product ... some of these movies are a loss for the venues and the distributors, because they do not earn back their investment. In fact they are in a bad place. When an actor starts doing that, venues do not put up their movies and distributors make deals with producers to get the film at a lesser cost. Basically the actor becomes a down market product..... kangana is a loosing enterprise for all that associate with her and her flops do affect the industry.

I have read how distributors suffered heavy losses after Tubelight, though it was close to 100 crores. Fact is, they bid a crazy high amount for the distribution rights, thinking it is Bhai's film. They suffered heavy loss. But producers made high profit as they sold it for a record high price to distributors. (After this episode, distributors stopped bidding crazily for Khan's movies).

I suppose, it was the opposite in Uri. If producers have not distributed themselves, most of the profit would have gone to the distributors, not the producers.

Simbaa and Uri might have made same amount of money. But distributors of Simbaa would have got less profit (and producer Simbaa would have made more profit) than Uri. That is because, distributors would have bid a higher amount to get Simbaa's distribution rights.

Distributors bid shows their trust in that particular star (what is the minimum guarantee they think, this particular star can bring). Uri might be hit. But that does not determine Vicky's value as a star. How much was it sold for distributor (either this film or in future), shows his value. Hence producers pick a person with star value, as they can sell their product high to the distributor.

Currently producers are agreeing to undersell their product (selling at a lower price to distributors than the cost of production), as they have other means of recovering budget (satellite/music rights). I remember, they used it in Kaabil. Movie was a moderate success. But nobody suffered loss. No one gained high either. Even Padmavat was sold at a lesser price to the distributor than the production cost.

In JHK, it does not matter what the production cost is (usually a low budget film recovers that by music/tv rights). What matters is, how much was it sold for distributors. (That indicates the saleability of the star. In other words, how big the star Kangana is).

You are getting the numbers game my friend, and why IT DOES MATTER and how films are not cut and dry in terms of profit. People hear a kangoli say the film cost 19 cr to make and they sold it at 40cr plus and scream hit hit. BUT that is not how it works.

Lol 19 crores budget? 😆 Did Kekta shoot the whole movie by mobile cameras & edited - composited herself using Windows Movie Maker? 😆

I can't even imagine how much will a paltry 19 crore budget will leave for the "production" of a movie after paying the "highest paid actress" her remuneration. Rajkumar wouldn't work for free either, will he? 😆
