Lets wait for a cinema film 😆

It doesn’t bother me that rich people get richer. Fox and maybe even Mahesh bhatt and co are not out of pocket as a result of the number of dislikes on a trailer. But the sheer level of negativity being shown towards supposedly one of India’s top actresses, how do you put a price tag on that?😆

I wrote it few days back, an actor hailed as the numero uno female superstar and then being splashed across that her trailer was being hated doesn't do any good to her image.

Liberal winger wale critics bhi bacha nahi payenge coz the movie is most likely to be shitty. 😆

Yeah, like my dad would make a huge profit if my sister buys clothes from his store.

Aur woh kapde phate niklenge ton my dad wojld be happy thinking he has made his profit.

Yeah but the difference is different people run those organizations. The CEOs and COOs of these respective organizations would have their own goals (and they aren't related like father and sister). They wouldn't sell themselves short only because the customer is another subsidiary of the parent org.

For example, they sold Bang Bang to Netflix, Student of the year 2 to Prime, etc. They sell whoever bids the highest price for their product. So they must have sold it to Hotstar because they gave the best price for this film. And Hotstar bought it because they thought it was worth it.

If Sadak 2 is going to get boycotted or something, it's Hotstar's problem now. Not Fox's. They have already made their money and moved on.

Also, Dil Bechara, which was an awful film got too much appreciation for obvious reasons. And that too was bought by Hotstar from Fox. So at the end of the day there are no winners or losers here. It's just business.

How much additional money it is 50-60 lakh this is chindi for Disney company

So according to some highly intellectuals people with infinite wisdom and inexhaustible reasoning, a multimillion/billion dollars company earning few thousand dollars worth of money in Youtube via ads is beneficial to them than their product being the most disliked video of all time

This would have mattered if the film was releasing in theatres, now it doesn't because they are releasing the film on OTT. So there's absolutely no worry of the trailer of their film being the most disliked of all time on Youtube because it won't affect their theatrical release and neither can it be stopped. If the number of dislikes was their major concern, they would have immediately disabled them rightaway and not keep it on till now.

A business becomes a multi-million dollar business only because they value every single penny coming into the business. A few thousand dollars through ads is as important to them as earning crores from selling say the satellite rights of a film. Why do you think companies like T- Sries/YRF keep on uploading new and reused content every now and the Why were they suddenly releasing deleted songs during the pandemic? Why do Netflix and Amazon Prime despite being huge companies themselves have a dedicated Youtube channel where they curate and create original content with famous people from the Indian web space with proper budgets? ( And ALL of them monetized)

Because every business wants to expand into the digital space since it is as lucrative as the film space. Everyone wants to earn extra revenue, that's how business expansion works, especially with media companies for whom now it's absolutely important to have their presence in film-digital-print. That's why even that extra thousand earned through an ad is a big and important amount to keep their digital wing alive. They need the views for ads. As much as a random tiktoker or youtube would need. Because everybody needs more eyeballs in the webspace be it a pewdipie or a T Series.

Look at the amount of ads that has increased on youtube throughout this lockdown. You now can't even skip the ads and atleast need to sit through two in the begining and one in the middle so it's a hell of a lucrative space for all, esp big businesses to keep their cash flows on. You don't have to be an intellectual with infinite wisdom to understand that views are more important than likes especially in monetized videos like film trailers and songs uploaded by big companies in order to earn more from Youtube. Mere experience in working in that field/ having on ground knowledge will suffice most of the times. 👍🏼

Also Disney being a multi billion company doesn't help them until and unless the cash continue flowing and with Disney just reporting their biggest quarterly loss which financial reports suggest is the worst for Disney in the last 20 years, things don't really look that great for the company esp after their Fox acquisition pre covid. So no money is chindi in a business.
