Lagaan had cricket India's passion but i vaguely remember even it wasnt runaway hit something around average (might be wrong)

Devdas was yes but acc to me it wasnt completely periodic 

I agree with JA but 

Looking at  photos of Ranbir Kapoor in the movie I had thought this movie was going  to be a disaster.  And the trash they say ' niche' audience etc.

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

Nope. The problem is that India doesn't know how to make period movie(for the most part).

When done right; they are masterpieces and do great at BO.

Take Lagaan for example. It smashed each and every BO myth and was a smashing success. Today it is rated as one of the best movies to ever come out of India. It beat other classics for the no.1 spot as the best ever on a poll conducted at the hundred years of Hindi cinema.

Where is piyatrix ?

DAMN, I think even low the budget movies and movies with unknown starts haven't been canceled before this movie? This is so insulting. I wanted the movie to do well :/ 

The biggest hit of Indian Cinema, Mugha-e-azam was a period film. What are people talking about?😆 A well-made film or an average film with truly popular actors will always do well. BV fulfills neither criteria. It is not a well-made film and it does not have popular actors in the league of Khans.

What I don't get is why all the Salman fans are going hyper over BV failing?? Every thread, every topic is being dominated by them.

Any previous fight that I know not off??

Mughal-e-Azam is another example. One of the biggest hits ever and it was a period movie.
