Okay thanks a ton. 

I am sorta worried that it may not be possible. I wonder why the opening is stated to be this low. I mean, I thought there was positive buzz for the film after the second trailer but it doesn't add up, given how Ranbir is actually pretty popular. Anyway, probably it will pick up during the weekend. Piku is hardly a competition, different genres. 

The biggest problem is the budget.

You cant have such a fickle story with such a humongous budget. It is bound to fail. Not limited to only BW, it happens in HW as well. Jupiter Ascending is a recent example.

The only fault of Ranbir's in this is that the movie hasn't opened well. That was dependent on his star power not on the content. Sure the promos may not have been up to the mark but this opening is a disaster.

If the story is as bad as they are making it out to be; even the Khan wouldn't have save it. A budget of 110 cores needs over 200 to be a solid hit.

Is period movies a curse in India has any movie succedded 

what astar power 🤣 but dont worry RK now will comfirmed that he will marry katrina and everything will be ok till DP save him with tamasha

The problem is Ranbir did a Roy before BV , and that disappointed many

BV's min competition will be from Mad Max which has received the best reviews and audience feedback for an English movie. 

 I watched Fury Road last night and have booked my tickets for a 2nd viewing on Sunday. Watching Fury road was like being in a state of High/adrenaline rush for 2 hrs. It is bloody brilliant.

Fury Road is bound to be bloody brilliant. That much was evident from the trailers. I am seeing it today.

And i wont be surprised if it beats BV figures over the coming days. The reviews have been amazing and the action genre is what the whole of Asia seems to be in love with.

Kashyap isn't bad as he is being made out to be. On the contrary he is one of the best. 

If in doubt watch his 3 masterpieces- Gulal (His best ever), Black Friday & Ugly.

he isn't just cut-out for commercial fares. Or perhaps the law of averages caught up with him. Thats all.

As expected going the Saawariya way...down down down

Damn looking at BV reviews feel DBB got better than this and atleast managed BelowAverage , This is getting negative reviews even on twitter

I think for most of the period movies, story gets lost in set, location, grandeour, costume etc
But when well made those becomes epic like JA, Laagan
Though not a forum's choice, Ramleela, Devdas too did very good business in period set up
DBB was not true to Byomkesh Story, Dibakar made it very complicated. Had he been sticked to original story, it could have done decent business.

DBB was his interpretition but was tad slow and Raamleela wasnt period it was current dayy only :p

so the article about the star asking for his 20 crores was right, ranbir knew this would be a disaster therefore take your money before the eggs hatch.
