Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor’s recently-released film Shamshera failed to impress the audiences and underperformed at the box office. The big-budget film was reportedly made on Rs 150 crore but only managed to collect Rs 36 crore at the theatres. Apart from leaving the Shamshera team disheartened, the debacle also sent shock waves across the Hindi film industry which is already reeling under the impact of back-to-back flop films.
Amid the uncertainty over the box office business of upcoming big-budget movies, actress Kareena Kapoor Khan was asked about Shamshera’s failure. Ranbir’s cousin Bebo, who is currently anticipating the release of her much-awaited film Laal Singh Chaddha, refused to comment on it.
She told India Today, “I am nobody to talk about a particular film because (a) I haven’t seen the film. And (b) I think everybody operates differently. Everybody, kind of, treats and takes their film very differently. Like I said, some people are very attached and some people are not. So, it is a very individualistic kind of thing.”
“Every actor operates and comes from a different area and every director does. To comment on that would be very wrong on my part,” she added.
Meanwhile, talking about Kareena-starrer Laal Singh Chaddha, the Aamir Khan film is currently embroiled in controversy. The hashtag #BoycottLaalSinghChadha has been trending on Twitter for a few days now
Laal Singh Chadda is an official Hindi adaptation of Tom Hanks’ Academy Award-winning film Forrest Gump. It is set to release on August 11, 2022.
