Just watched this weekend two movies on TV , on was the much publicized so called super hit movie "BODYGUARD" and today very lowly publicized fine Marathi movie "TARYANCHE BET".
It made me think how are the business economics , box office and all financial things has no real connection with the quality of the movies . It gives a clear picture to the viewers that only highly publicized mega budget movies are the once who just because of high promotional budgets lead the race and win it too. Whereas, low publicized and high on subject story gets critical acclaim and less moolah.
So, not deviating from the subject saw "BODYGUARD " of super builder star (not actor)was such a lousy and boring film. A movie with some very plain tasteless subject and unimaginative turns which fall flat on the face . Just on the basis of Salman , the movie goes on showing his biceps and packs and all. In short , its total waste of your money and time to watch this type of big star boring and meaningless film .
On the other hand the another Marathi film with Sachin Khedekar film "TARYANCHE BET" a low budget film but with a fine storyline and excellent subject goes unnoticed on the box-office. A film based on a small happy family enjoying a rural life and content with it. His son who comes with him to Mumbai for a short trip gets fascinated by 5- star hotel and bets with his father to spend a day in hotel if he tops in his class. This simple but expensive request creates a sort of mental turmoil in the life of the protagonist. A simple film showing loving relationship of father - son and his fight to make his son's dream come true.
Thus this shows how come in Bollywood the star power and promotional strength just creates movies only star-centric and just concerned about the 100 crores bracket and not relating to the script. Whereas we see in the regional films , the major thought is given to the content and not revolve around the star . Due to less financial strength they not be in the league of the 100 cr BoxOffice winners , but definitely high on the content with soul in the name which makes you satisfy to watch a story which entertains and also gives something to takeaway .
There is an exception to "3 IDIOTS"but most of the movies which have reached the 100cr marks are all duds and only driven by the STAR power gimmicks like Singham,Ra-ONE an the list goes on and on.... So, it would better which ever movie just don't go on the face of the star power on the star power , wait and watch rather these people will go on giving us meaningless BO films.
