Today its content-driven movies which are doing well. The audience wants something new. So, we see films like Batla House opening well and inching towards 100 crore. Article 15 becomes a hit. So what do you people think? Is content trumping star power in Bollywood? Or are the two going hand-in-hand?

Khan and Akki movies no matter how bland are opening big.

So content and starpower are going hand in hand.

Kalank despite being trolled all over, opened at 20 crores, while Gully opened at 19 crores plus, despite being a relatively unique movie because it has the biggest 2010 debutant actors, aka Ranveer and Aloo.
