2017

Girl: Lets go to watch Tumhari Sulu first day first show. Vidya Balan movies are awesome always.

Boy: Not that interested. Will wait for Amazon prime.Or may watch after reviews or after few days after prices come down. We boys prefer action movies

Girl: No problem, your wish your taste. I will go first day first show.


2018

Boy: Lets go to watch Baaghi. Action is fabulous, Tiger shroff is awesome.
Girl: Waise i dont like this maar dhaar, fights, action too much.

Boy: arrey what is kept on those boring films you go to watch first day first show like Tumhari sulu, pari, hichki. Asli marrd waaale movies dekho. Kya fight hain,,uff kya body hai, amazing item number. Heroine bhi masst hai.

Girl: I agree, u love those genre. Its fine everyone has own choices. But i dont like. I never propel you to accompany me when i go to women centric movies.

Boy: You should go, Its complete entertaintment . I assure, Lets book tickets.

Girl: OK


such conversations are not hypothetical but are for real.


Inference: the boy was adamant not to watch the tumari sulu kind of movie as it was not his taste but he will compel the girl to accompany him to watch an action movie hero oriented movie.

There are many girls who dont like this action genre but will still go and contribute in the revenue of such films. Have to watch it, Because ladke ne kahaa hai, because Tv main bahut charcha hai, because high budget movie hai, because hero shirtless hai kuch scenes main. blah blah blah...

Its the man who tag the ladies along with them to watch their action movies and the girls shamelessly go also but when it comes to watch a heroine centric movie, its not their choice..
That is why heroine centric movies dont have good opening compared to hero oriented movies. The men in large numbers dont watch them.
But women are always ready to accompany their friends, brother, Lover, Husband, Colleague etc etc for a Hero Centric movie in large numbers because its touted as a big thing to arrive in cinemas.

But its the exactly opposite even a much publicized heroine oriented movie is made.
Even succesful publiicized films like Queen, Mary kom didnt open to 25 crores.
Its only few sensible men and women who support female centric movies.
Its the women who are equally contributing to the first weekend of the hero oriented films.
But we dont find men in large numbers for a women centric movie to give a 25 cr opening. WHY? Because ladko waali film nahi hai.

It's true that many movies which get a lot of hype are male oriented and those with female leads don't get that much hype . But I don't think girls get compelled and boys don't. Not every action movie has takers..look at a gentleman or force 2. They didn't open to 25 crores either. In fact very very few movies open to such huge numbers and it has a lot of other factors . It's not fair to make such a blatant simplification and that too gender-based .

While I agree with the concept of men having a higher purchasing power which leads to more collection for movies which cater to their taste. But I don't agree that women oriented movie don't get the numbers irrespective of the content. If the content is good number will follow, ex kahani, queen, Gal gadots wonder woman. But tumhari sullu was a bad product which came out when the environment overall wasnt anyway good. So although it was recognized, it is not a good movie. It tries too hard to preach and while VB is amazing, she was the only thing good.

Why is it so hard to admit that its Tiger's starpower that brought people into the theaters instead of making so many conspiracy theories? 😕

Even action movies of many 'so called superstars' dint opened to such numbers! So its an invalid argument that every action movies will score big.

As numerous action movies by bigger stars are constantly flopping off-late.

Ish mai women empowerment kaha se aaya?

aur waise bhi single screen(majority of audience who watch this genre) ke nallay ghanta ladki ke saath jayengay. Ladki milti hi nahi😆, ishi liye toh Disha, Shraddha aur Jackie ko dekh ke khush hote hai😆.

Aur agar gf huyi bhi they will rush even faster for Sullus. I mean khali, andhera thearter, sath main gf😆


The types of guys you are talking, amazon prime walley, generally will watch pirated online download of Baaghi 2 and than write in twitter "how it sucked and compared with FnF it is shite".

Because sequels have been selling like hotcakes recently! There also hasn't been a properly hyped product since Padmavaat before this! Upar se Tiger and Disha are popular! There's no need to write psychological profiles on women for this simple thing! 😆

@topic
It does not make much difference , theatre going girl audience in general is very less in India , and most of them are watching casual entertainer than in tumhari sullu
