India’s biggest flop film has a superstar in it, part one was a blockbuster, made for Rs 225 crore, it bombed at box-office, managed to earn just Rs 150 crore
Most of the things in this sequel fell flat, despite great visuals and star power. The film even failed to recover its budget.
Big-budget movies don’t always work at the box workplace, and in contrast, low-budget movies make a splash. The secret to good movies that smash the box workplace are those that have compelling narratives. The same scenario befell in 2024 with a well-budgeted film that the final public rejected as a consequence of the its subpar storyline.
On July 12, Kamal Haasan and S. Shankar’s Indian 2, a follow-as much as Indian (1996), became released in theatres worldwide the arena. The film marked the primary-ever collaboration between director Shankar and musician Anirudh Ravichander. Indian’s sequel has been in production for approximately four to 5 years and has faced kind of a number obstacles earlier than it became sooner or later released in theatres. In an identical way to Kamal Haasan, the film also starred Siddharth, Rakul Preet Singh, Priya Bhavani Shankar, Kalidas Jayaram, Gulshan Grover, and Brahmanandam, among others.
Senapathy (played by Kamal Haasan) goes back to his land to accomplish the task he began, after seeing corruption and con artists reappear the total way through the sequel. In Indian 2, S. Shankar’s vision, which is renowned for its opulence and grandeur, takes on a two-fold vision. Even while the sequel became visually stunning, the film’s large-scale production, intricate settings, and action scenes fall short of creating up for the weak narrative.
For the unversed, the film became produced on a enormous scale. IMDb reports that the production of Kamal Haasan starrer costs Rs 225 crore. Indian 2 failed to make an impact at the box workplace after its liberate. Indian 2 didn’t even make back its expenses at the box workplace. The streaming giant, Netflix paid Rs a hundred and twenty crore for Indian 2, while Kalaignar TV purchased the satellite rights. The film became released on Netflix on August 9, 2024.
Released in 1996, the primary Indian made approximately Rs. Fifty eight crore in India; after accounting for inflation, that quantity would have increased to an astounding Rs. 800 crore now. Unfortunately, Indian 2, a enormous box workplace failure, has managed to destroy this strong history. The fate of the upcoming Indian three, which is scheduled for liberate the next year, is something to be worried about.
