However, the original movie was a HIT at the box office. So yeah, there's that.

but they still casted her😆 the films content matters more. if it is good...I dont see why it wont do well. at the end of the day, she needs to continue to work to garner and achieve banakability so I am not sure why actors are targeted for their pull esp if they are talented.

Its time to support good actors and not have the same actors in all the films imo

Actualy I thought Pari is good casting. The Indie regulars would've brought a been there done that feel - Radhika Apte, Sanya Malhotra, Taapsee.

Pari's career is really getting a second lease of life, looks like Kesari has worked for her. Hope she doesn't mess up this time.

as far as i know, BO pull doesnt really matters for someone like parineeti who isnt as big actor. It only matters whenever a big actor's movie tanks so badly that you have to bring up the BO pull and the numbers to defend it.
