I would like to know from you all, since its a movie where the producer has invested more than 100 crores in a female lead movie.

If it works and scores big, will it be a game changer in terms of producers and big studios willing to put in more money or the same amount of money they invest in male stars and their movies.

I really wish it happens and this change comes in.

Lets have a healthy discussion please

I know some will come up and say that the budget was not supposed to be so much, it got out of hand etc etc . Yes I am aware . I am just going by numbers here not how it got there...

Since many are making this post about for and against Kangna, let me bring another perspective to stir it up

Replace Deepika with Ranveer in SIMMBA while retaining everything else in the movie, only the actor with a female. The script is the same, the screenplay is the same

Will the producer invest the same amount as they did with Ranveer as the lead?

Will the movie become the same blockbuster as it did now with Ranveer.

if the script is the Hero and the screenplay is important , why should the gender of the lead matter? and why producers have the hesitation to invest the same amount of money irrespective of any gender?.

Nowadays the audience is changing too, many movies with female leads have made big business. Even then, why are big studios hesitating to put in the same money as they do with male stars lead movies?.

Don't we have "Ghanta" emoticon.

Anyways, i dont think it will be game changer..Small Budget investment can a possible, but not bug investments.

BTW, IS Kangana one of the producers?

Manikarnika will work. It's a patriotic film at the end of the day so it won't be a flop but it won't be a game changer as well because the success will be attributed more to the genre and nationalistic feel than the actors, just like Uri. I highly doubt whether Vicky's horror film will open to big numbers. WOM yes, but high opening numbers- doubtful. Even Uri opened on a disappointing note.

Don't think there is a "ghanta" emotion, have been searching for it too, wish we had it

No , she is not one of the producers

if big studios can put in money for male stars and their movies, whats stopping them to do the same for female stars?

If the movie relies on a good script and story telling then irrespective of the stars, the movie should do well, isn't it?

Also why there's no hesitation in shedding huge amounts for male stars and their movies but the same isn't for star actresses??

if this movie works (which I know it will) I cant imagine the horror that Kangna will become... from normal monster to giant monster...

people are forgetting or having short memory
even for patriotic movies to work..they have to be well made..check raazi..check URI

badly made patriotic movies..phir bi dil hai hindustani check..go to the gutter like the rest

so for manikarnika to work..it also has to be WELL MADE apart from just being PATRIOTIC

why is every discussion fuelled by like or dislike for an actor or actress
The question I asked was will producers invest the same amount of money with a female lead as they do with male lead , from that POV, If Manikarnika becomes a success , will it be a game changer from the money investing POV
