Director RamGopalVarma in a recent interview stated that there is a big threat for Bollywood movies from Hollywood after the humungous success of some Hollywood films in recent times like ‘The Jungle Book’ , former FF7 and the time has come to wake up. Now that fact is turned out to be true and that affected the director itself!
Hollywood movie ‘The Angry Birds’ collected Rs.2.16 crores on its opening day, while RGV’s much promoted ‘Veerappan’ collected Rs.1.77 crores, despite positive reviews from the critics stating it as RGV’s comeback movie after a long time.
This is like a wake up call for the film industries in India and the underlying threat from Hollywood movies. They need to plan their releases keeping in mind the release dates and businesses of Hollywood movies releasing in India. The growing market for Hollywood in India is definitely an alarm for the present makers in the present trend.
