Q. Every week there are success parties but then why is there always a problem between multiplexes and distributors nearly every week and cinema timings not even listed on Friday in newspapers?

A. Today a success party normally means a film has not done well. The problem with multiplexes are there as week in week out films are doing low occupancies so they want to lower the share for films. N Sharma

Q. Is is true that Mental will release on 22nd November?

A. Its unlikely that it can make it that quickly. January is looking the likeliest date. S Modan

Q. Bombay Talkies has the nearly all the industry in a song will that make a difference to the box office of the film?

A. Its pretty irrelevant as the small niche segment of audience who may care for these type of films know exactly what they are about. If the premium multiplex audience turns up it could do some business otherwise it holds little chance with the majority audience. L Ali

Q. Why has a film like Son Of Sardaar has got three times the rating of Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara on TV despite Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara having more appreciation? A.

A film like Son of Sardaar has a much wider reach so on television which is has a much wider audience than cinema it was always likely to do much better. Also appreciation for films like Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is mainly from people who talk about cinema on internet, social media etc, its not that it has huge appreciation with the paying public outside 5-6 cities.

We have to remember that ABCD got the same opening as Aashiqui 2

AASHIQUI 2 is a big hit! No denying that! every source has confirmed it!

Talaash had a success party didnt it?

Success Party should be celebrated after 2nd weekend, which nowadays is started from 2nd day only, that's why a genuine success also falls in this category like Aashiqui 2.

4 FilmMakers have made 4 short films which only they like to make, It has ignore the very Essence of concept as what they are celebrating. Critics plus limited plex audience will like it for sure, no popular music, no big stars.

nah..it was bebo who went to media and advertised that saif is going to throw a success party for talaash. he is going to tell all how "a married" actresses has delivered a hit.

but guess what...saif later backed out.

i would like to know why?

No. Talaash did have a success party. Aamir also did a press conference on its success. It was all over TV channels. Yet the final verdict for the film from all quarters was that it was a moderate success/semi hit.
