Will Akshay Kumar’s Gabbar Is Back prove to be a saviour? [Abhinav – Nagpur]
How big the success that Gabbar Is Back would be is something that the content would decide. However, the film has taken the biggest opening of the year so far, at over 13 crore. The only Bollywood film to have crossed the 10 crore opening day mark this year has been Ranbir Kapoor and Arjun Rampal’s Roy, and that too fizzled out after a couple of days. Before that, Baby had taken a decent opening and then enjoyed the best word of mouth of the year, hence coming almost close to the 100 crore mark.
Needless to say, even as Bollywood enters its fifth month, it is going to be Akshay Kumar that would act as a saviour. The buzz around Gabbar Is Back is good and the film was hyped up well too, ever since the first set of motion posters were launched. While the opening has been secured, it will be interesting to see how the film plays out from here on.
In a year that has been badly suffering with a spate of flops week after week, Akshay Kumar should finally throw in some respite and save the industry from sinking further. 40 years ago, when Sholay was being made, who would have thought that it would be the name of Bollywood’s most iconic villain who would step in and bring Bollywood out of the doldrums that it is in?
Just drop in your query (along with the city you belong) and one interesting question would be picked every day to build connect between you and fascinating world of Bollywood. #QOTD <Question> @tutejajoginder @missmalini
