It's really sad how movies these days have become all about item songs, horrible stories, and making the 100+ crore club.
I haven't seen Dabangg 2 yet, so its unfair for me to make a statement on it.
However, this whole 100 crore club is utter nonsense. A film does well for many reasons:
1) Yes, star power.
2) Good script.
3) Horrible script, but star power.
4) Item numbers
5) Other songs
6) Director/Producer
Jab Tak Hai Jaan was a hit, in my opinon, because of:
1) Yash Chopra ji
2) Shahrukh Khan
3) Different story line from the movies today.
4) Anushka
5) Katrina/Shahrukh's jodi (bitter, but true fact).
6) Other reasons
Jab Tak Hai Jaan didn't appeal to some because of:
1) Shahrukh romancing girls no where close to his age.
2) Katrina Kaif (no offense meant to fans)
3) Stupid story line (difference of opinions)
4) Other reasons
Similarly Dabangg 2 is doing well because of about the same reasons mentioned above.
But this whole 100 crore club is nonsense.
Shahrukh has just as much star power as Salman and I know most will disagree on that statement.
If Shahrukh chooses bad roles, then Salman is equally guilty of the same.
