Bramastra's verdict of a hit is the biggest scam ever. The budget is 410cr and it was declared a hit on 230cr hindi india net..global WW 430cr..
I feel the timing of the movie was such that it was perceived as a hit coz it came in one of the worst years (2022) and right after the industry hit an all time low with LSC & Raksha Bandhan's collective total even failing to hit 100cr that too on so many public holidays.
Bramastra coming at that time, opening at above 40cr and making a lifetime of 230 was seen as record breaking.
Had this movie come today..when the bar is so high for such movies after a mega successful 2023 with 4 500cr india net movies..you think trade would be that lenient towards this one as it was in Sep'22?
I feel even BOI would have called it an outright flop. It just benefited from releasing at a time there was no 400cr club let alone 500 or 600 in fact a movie crossing even a 100cr was being looked as an achievement back then.
Regardless, that is not how verdicts work and i feel like it has done for many movies, BOI needs to revise its verdict of Bramastra.
Anyone who still thinks the movie deserves a hit verdict..please explain how..coz i don't understand this side of trade one bit..
And sold a new logic that 400 cr is the budget of two films without the 2nd even made. The film did not even reach 230 cr in all fairness. Taran Adarsh said distributors stopped sharing collections with trade analysts coz the producers said so.
