Yea that was too obvious and tame. Something with more detail.
I also don’t believe there’s a politician or someone powerful backing Kangana who pressured Ekta. I think this was about Ekta’s ego and saving face specially since when all this began she released a statement saying releasing JHK on 26th was her decision and she was the boss as the producer. She failed but that’s neither here nor there. I think she miscalculated and thought Hrithik would either clash or postpone his own movie. Moving S30 to 12th (Jabariya’s second release date) caught her completely off guard. So the only way she knew how to come off of that looking OK was to make sure JHK would become a hit hence moving Jabariya at the last minute one more time. I also wonder if her going against Hrithik in favor of Kangana is the reason a lot of Bollywood has ignored Jabariya Jodi?
I think it is a mix of pressure not necessarily political (because the co-producer Shailesh R Singh is close to Kangu) coupled with her ego and favc saving. She was at the JHK press con where Kangu had the fight with Justin was she present at any JJ promo event? She seemed more involved with JHK promos than Jabariya promotions. I think Ekta had a lot of faith in JHK and Kangu's bo pull so she put all her eggs in the JHK basket to the extent that she sacrificed Jabariya but that backfired on her badly. Maybe after watching JJ's final cut she was not satisfied so deemed the movie not worthy but after watching JHK she believed the movie was a sure-shot hit so went all out with promotions thinking that she will get a hit. Truly a big miscalculation on Ekta's part.
Kjo, Aloo, Varun usually tweet about all the new trailers none of them tweeted about Jabariya?
