Tailpiece

WE'RE rarely shocked, and bankruptcy sagas are a dime a dozen. But the mammoth financial sinkhole this mega film production house has gotten into, had us gaping. Its owner, a flamboyant director himself, has quietly sought assistance from a friend"a former television honcho turned entrepreneur"who will be bailing him out with a sizeable investment. One flop after another is the reason, especially since the films are known for their designer clothes, foreign locales and supersized candyfloss gloss.

So KJo...shove your kids down our throats even more. Didn't learn anything from Adi's same mistakes with Rani.

But kinda weird -- last year was horrible for Dharma but the year before that was better na? Or have they been struggling for ages and last year just killed everything?

Baahubali made 100 crores know? In 2014, both 2 States and HSKD did well..HTP din flop either..Yeah last year, Brothers and Shandhaar flopped but is that all it takes to go bankrupt? 😆

He was not the producer of Baahubali, just the presenter. He may have got a share from the film's profits, but don't think it was anything sustantial.

Well Shandaar & Brothers were huge flops. If they were already struggling before that then 100+cr losses aren't going to help. There's the bazillion disasters with Bebo before that too. Their last huge hit was YJHD.

why is Shandaar missing from Karan's wiki?

Anyways this blind is definitely about him! 😆 damn I didn't realize in recent times Dharma's doing so bad. No wonder he's always on every TV show to make money.
