The Films Whose Reviews Made Me God, Made No Money ' Hrithik R

100 Crores in their kitty and Bang Bang is soaring high. Hrithik Roshan has been going through an emotional and physical slump all through last year. With his ailments and fall-out with his wife after 17 years of relationship, Bang Bang is a streak of hope, life and more for him.

In an interview to Koimoi, Hrithik told us how happy the numbers have made him. He said, "I am very happy with box office numbers. This is only way to judge the success of film in its entirety. The numbers speaking helps. You can be surrounded by 10,000 people around you who are praising you to the skies but turns out that they are the only 10,000 people who have watched the film. I have done films which have been from the sad space, they were spiritual films, there are people who have praised me to bits. But it was true that they were only people who watched the film. Others skipped it. It is only through numbers that you can correctly gauge how much a film has succeeded. Numbers give you perspective in the entirety of the film. How much your film is loved in India and abroad is something that is reflected through the numbers alone."

But the reviews have been mixed. Hrithik agrees and though not everyone has liked his films, he is happy to have complied with the wishes of his fans who wanted to see him dance and do Dhoom 2 action all over again. He said, "Everyone's opinions matters to me because you never know which line of whose can become the accelerating point of growth in your life. I have done films in which the reviews have made me out to be some God but those films have made no money. You have to do all kinds of films. Some make some happy, others make others happy. And a bunch that will make everyone happy. Sid's vision is a lot like my father. If I tell my father to make a small film with a message, which make people think about life and adds to spiritual growth, he will say No need to make such a film. He wants to make films with Sunshine, dance, drama and entertainment. Bang Bang is one step ahead of my last film. We have crossed 100 crores in 5 days. That's become a big feat!"

Bang Bang that released on 2nd October will soon become one of the top grossers at the box office in 2014. The film is a hit with the fans of both Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif and for Fox Star Studios, it is a memorable victory to have churned out a film spread on this canvas and of this scale.

Bang Bang is massive for the stunts in the film which were nothing short of brilliant. Obviously it was during one of those fateful stunts that Hrithik Roshan suffered his brain injury. But that did not deter the actor from losing his zesty self and enthusiasm.

Speaking to Koimoi, post the release of Bang Bang, Hrithik explained that the post-accident stunts weren't easy at all. He narrates, "Shooting in Shimla in cold was very tough. The water stunt was difficult for sure but the rooftop scenes were equally draining. Most of the stunts in Shimla were shot right after my surgery, when I had just come back and has just become okay. I could not take loud sounds. I had shoot the whole film with earplugs. Even in songs, I could not bear loud music. In songs, it is generally preferred that to get the tempo right and the feel right, the music is kept loud. It gives you a better feel. I did not have that luxury. I had to dance to muffled sounds and hardly heard the pump of the music. I think I have still managed decently."

It is more often than not, easier to give up when life is low. Didn't Hrithik feel the push of the same? Hrithik says no. He wants to be the brave soldier who will march against all odds that life will throw his way. He continues with, "Everyone is going to face the lows in life. If you haven't got it yet, you'll soon face it. When you are faced with impossibilities in life, when life ceases to make sense both mentally and emotionally, it is very easy to give up then. Most actors who have gone through slumps emotionally and physically have preferred to take a long sabbatical before resuming work. I always believe life is made up of time. And I don't want to give up on time."

Coming from that dull phase, certainly Bang Bang's success must be very reassuring. The film went through a series of delays; there were talks of it being shelved. But Hrithik and Sidharth Anand remained determined. Roshan tells us, "I had promised Sid that whenever I get okay, I will make Bang Bang the best film it could possibly be. We have achieved it and numbers speak of it."

Bang Bang that released on 2nd October has cashed in well over the weekend and is earning in higher ranges consistently. With the film's sequel in order as well, Bang Bang might soon be turned into a series, suggests multiple sources.

Sid's vision is a lot like my father

Because you ghost-directed Bang Bang.

and thats the sad fact not just for hrithik but all big star

So after BB you converted from god to aam admi?? Ak's jhaadu is waiting for you

All the best Hrithik <3

Every single actor does this 😆 When your film is critically acclaimed but flops, they say acting is a passion, creative satisfaction matters to them, number games don matter etc. etc..If the film does well at the BO but is trashed by the critics, they end up saying that its the collections that matter at the end of the day 😆 If the film is both critically & commercially trashed, they disown it like Ajay & Saif 😆 Nothing against HR here cos many actors do this 😆
