Why Avengers infinity war success in India is a lesson to learn for Bollywood?

This Friday when the third part of highly awaited movie Avengers infinity war released, the whole world went gaga over it. We Indians were in awe with all the characters from Marvel Cinematic Universe coming together in a film. The action sequences and plot of the story was well intriguing with one of the best Visual effects we have ever seen in a movie. People all over the world are loving the film and the third part of Avengers franchise is shattering many box-office records.
Last time we saw this kind of havoc in India was one year before when the second part of Bahubali released. Avengers has garnered almost 100 crores in India which is a record for any foreign film in India. The movie based on epic battle to save the world from Thanos released only in around 2000 theatres in India, still managed to score a 90+ weekend. This is a historic performance by any Hollywood film in India.
A Hollywood movie getting an earth-shattering response is a timely wake-up call for Indian Film Industry. We have to match the content with increasing the level of production of our movies otherwise youth will walk away from Indian movies. With easy availability and fast internet, youth is getting more attracted to English driven content which is becoming a trouble for Hindi Film Industry. They are not able to attract the youth now which they used to attract them two decades before.
Bollywood tried its hand in science fiction and advanced Visual effects movie but failed miserably. They tried with RA-One, Robot and Krish franchise but it felt like a baby in front of a man. Movies did well at the box-office but failed to match the expectation of Indian Youth. Bollywood’s visual effects were easily marked and criticized by the youth who has been seen a whole different level in Hollywood films. The south industry has done better than Bollywood in this field by creating Bahubali franchise, I, Magadheera etc.

We are different from Hollywood and we are the biggest movie producing country in the world but we have our liabilities towards the youth. This is the perfect time for Bollywood Production houses to come together and give it a thought. They should understand, what youth expects from them and work accordingly.

Two days of nation love.

15 th  august is a day when patriotism for our country gets it ’s year high TRP. This is the day when all the legendary patriotic songs come to play their role to inspire us, to reignite the spirit of patriotism, to give goosebumps, to bring tears, to give nostalgia from school days of independence day celebration. Oh! I remembered, there are actually only two days in a year when we remember the sacrifices of never dying memory of freedom fighters and martyrs. Rest of the 362 days we spend on cheating, stealing, being bad to others, polluting, being corrupt or littering. We think that two days of so-called nationalism and patriotism is good enough for the country to grow and develop. Standing for the national anthem and saluting it on the republic and the independence day is not good enough to make us a contributor in making our country a better place. What we need is, commitment of the whole year, actually whole life. Everyone don’t need to do charity to become a contribut...

What happened yesterday...

I am writing after few days just because I am confused about the way things are going in my life. I have been thinking about getting a new job because I am not satisfied with the present one. This is going on for over a month and my conscious mind thinks that I deserve a better job. When you see less deserving, less skillful and less qualified person becoming your team leader, it is obvious to get these thoughts. I did journalism with a lot of hopes attached with it, that one day I will do something which I will love and I will also get paid for it but the world seems very cruel when things don’t go your way. I have been active on job portals more than at the current job to find something good. It has hardly been a year and I am having second thoughts on my career. I know that I shouldn’t get this impatient so early in my career but I could feel that I am struggling in finding an appropriate place to show my skills which is a genuine problem of this generation but more than that I ...

Chapter -2, A story of ‘HE’ and ‘SHE’ and how he fell for her.

… he wanted to tell this to the world.  (continued from yesterday’s blog) He wanted to talk to the girl but there was something which was keeping him from approaching the girl. She had become a real and strong crush in very few hours. It was not like that the guy was shy, he had few girls in his main college group with whom he never found it difficult to talk. But with “SHE” something was up. One day he thought, he will just go and talk to the girl casually not making a big deal of it. Next day after class when the professor told the group that the class is going to attend a seminar and this is necessary for everyone to go. “HE” thought his chance has come knocking the door, so he decided to take the awaited conversation to delay one more day. Delhi’s lifeline is metro, millions of people travel in it, so were the class going to.  The night before the seminar a discussion started in the WhatsApp group where and when everyone will meet. “HE” never was an involved member o...
