The day was 28th April 2017 when S. S. Rajamouli's magnum opus Baahubali 2, a Telugu film dubbed in Hindi changed everything for Indian cinema.

The fundamental problem that Bollywood is facing post Baahubali 2 release, is that its films are struggling at box office barring a couple of movie exceptions, the period from May to August has been highly disappointing. Not a single big budget, big buzz and big star movie has managed to impress the audience and performed well.The big films Tubelight,JJ,JHMS faced outright rejection.Sarkar3,MeriPyaari Bindu,Behen Hogi Teri,Raabta,Half Girlfriend,Munna Michael,Indu Sarkar and Mubarakan flopped at the box office.It's a massive concern.The trend is hurting the reputation of Bollywood.

Why do you think the films are flopping?Has the audience interest in bollywood films waned?Baahubali2 has spoiled them?


Do you think this dismal performance of bollywood films at the box office will effect star kids in the future or young actors?Will producers think twice before investing in them?

The guy in your picture did Dhoom 3 which had some unbelievable things.If people can make craps like that hits then you can excuse them for a much better product like Baahubal2.

in Hollywood majority of movies are like that where they use their imagination and creativity to create a good fantasy movies. The biggest hit on tv, game of thrones is unrealistic too, so?? Entertainment can be in any form, not just realistic movies and besides bw kaunsi realistic movies bana raha hai?? Crap like jhms is realistic? 😕

Bollywood films are flopping due to many factors.. firstly, it's the lack of good script.. there are no budget constraints...also, the remuneration of the stars are too high which they don't deserve at all..
IMO putting the blame on baahubali2 is not right.. bb2 worked despite it's huge budget only because the audience connected with the storyline and the characters.. dangal too worked due to the same reasons..

The films released just after Bahubali 2, definitely in those cases Bahubali 2 has some contribution for being the film flops.. But their also were not that good. if it was audience would definitely gave a try to those. in other side bahubali connected with audience amazingly, it was and still it's a craze among audiences. people watched it again and again. yeah when they have already watched it and they have free time in the weekend they could watch other films why only bahubali? this question comes to your mind, right? well when u have Biriyani and Khichdi both in ur menu and u can eat multiple times, why u will eat khichdi?? ha khichdi is also fav of many. but that many is less in numbers comparatively with Biriyani lovers..

but after 100days of BB 2 release one definitely can't blame BB 2 for being flop of other films. if they could entertain, if they had good plots, if the presentation were good then they would work at box office.. yeah some films were there which are new in contents, they got critical acclaims. new hai toh audience appreciation bhi ek time pe mil jaiga.

one more thing is responsible for their being flops is bad mouthing. bohat se log khud film dekhne se pehle hi bol diya yeh toh bekar hai coj they have heard from someone else.

ab roj roj Biriyani khane k baad ek time aata hai jab khichdi khani parti hai daily. wohi haal hai ab BW fans ki

More than Baahubali it's the online streaming websites like Netflix, Amazon which has effected the box office collections of movies. When people have easy access to better entertainment options, then they are not going to pay to watch crappy movies... that too when the ticket prices are so high these days.

Shitty movies will fail from now on, no matter what the genre or starcast is. But even the movies with good content will not perform as per their true potential. Crossing 300 crores will be difficult even for Khans from now on.

Only movies made on a large scale and having good content which is worth watching on a big screen will do extraordinary business.
