The hypocrisy of ppl who trash commercial and art films..One side says it is boring and trash and no one cares for them and other side says only unintelligent folks watch masala films..Yet they dont realize how they are doing exactly what they accuse the other side of..Judging their taste and not letting ppl be..More than art films and commercial films, its just good cinema and bad cinema at the end of the day..Stop being judgmental just because you dont like something..

Today its not much different, a Badlapur, Haider or NH 10 can survive because the main talents are hardly being paid or taking huge cuts in the remuneration. Then on top its said these films are appreciated but how can these films be appreciated if hardly anybody has seen them. None crossed 50 lakh footfalls in theatres and less said about television results the better. You can only have appreciation if you have an audience. The longevity in the golden era was measured through repeat runs and today that has been replaced by television.

when you know footfall pattern has changed over time, then for what f*** sake you take footfalls and multiply by average ticket price to arrive at collections for movies like HAHK and other blockbusters in 90s?

That is adjusted inflation figures, that doesn't mean actual collection. It is done by all box office websites, boxofficemojo also does that in same way. Gone with the wind is biggest film when you see inflation figures.

Current domestic record holder star wars isn't in top 10, you can see their calculation also based on this concept.

i m not very sure but based on my memory, i beg to differ... when i checked last in a post from lakhan quoting BOI data it was footfalls multiplied by avg ticket price currently... avg ticket price currently will take care of inflation but then the business has changed to the extent that footfall needs to be revised downwards..

Buddy Footfalls of FILM remains as it is, footfalls which BOI is talking is about current films. You can't ask them to multiply footfalls of current films with Ticket price. Adjusted inflation comes when u multiply that particular film's Footfalls to ATP.

ATP - It is taken today's price

Film - footfalls - When it is released, it is FIXED.

ATP changes every year, so does inflation change.

Agreed on atp but footfall has changed over time with tv playing movies within 1-2 months, piracy making movie available on the day of release or even before, internet making pirated copies spread worldwide in seconds... My point is, if a movie that can be as successful as hahk is released today, it will have way less footfalls den what it did originally... That's precisely what boi is referring to as well...

For me, using atp and multiplying by atp is utter nonsense...
