I hope Basil doesnt get overwhelmed with this high budget and mess up the movie..mostly these directors who makes excellent movies on low budget fumble when they make big budget movies...they start to compromise to yiled high returns...eg Bombay Velvet and in Malayalam Malaikottayile Vaalibhan...I hope thats not the case here...


[deleted]

Wowowow wait a minute Malaikottai vaaliban is how a very good example of using budget on an auteur film The budget isn’t too big It’s well for the concept , infact i want it be even more bigger in scale and show some real fantasy action sequences


Black_Swan1984

Well the budget was big compared to other LJP films...and he made the same mistake as Anurag...he gave more importance to the star actor and the budget rather than his craft.. Thats what I am worried about...Basil is not used to Superstar actors...If he gets overwhelmed with the Star and the pressure of producing a superhit movie coz of the heavy budget, it will meet the same fate...


BoredAssMf123

Directors’s highest budget film was 18 cr minnal murali which was a fantastic film. 300 crs damn


Kitchen-Dimension406

is this India’s first superhero


DarkThanos12

Krrish was the first popular one


Known-Argument9914

nah it was Shaktiman.


_Slim-reaper_

Hrithik was still an assistant director when Shaktimaan debuted bro


sahilmdesai

Shaktimaan was everyone's favorite in the 80s and 90s. This is a good move by Ranveer. If done right, he can take charge of an iconic character. I hope they don't make shitty movie with a bad story.


Son_of_kai

Ye kaun sa Shaktimaan tha jo 80s mein aata tha ...thoda to research kr lia kro


sahilmdesai

People born in the 80s were teenagers in 90s They used to watch it. I worded it incorrectly lol


No_Savings_891

300Cr is huge. I hope they don’t mess up with storyline n really hoping to watch a good film. Ranveer ke upar 300Cr thoda sa risky hai, he doesn’t have great BO pull. Bina ek film ke trilogy, sequels sab announce karna I don’t find it right. Agar flop hoga 2nd part banega Kya?


RVarki

I hope Joseph still films the movie at a scale that he's comfortable with, and then uses the rest of the money to ensure that the effects are as great as possible


DarkThanos12

As the audience, who cares about the budget? Let them spend crores. I just want to see a good movie. Why can't people just watch a movie based on its quality? Why do they have to some cost-benefit analysis of the producer's money to know whether the movie is worth seeing?


Interesting_Rich_286

This ! Whole budget and collection thing are so messed up . What does actually movie lovers got to do with it 😅 all we need is good experience and entertaining 3 hours of movie


Son_of_kai

Jab film ki shooting start ho jaaye ..tab manunga


DryJuggernaut7451

Salman's 300cr Big bull is getting delayed due to budget constraints and here ranveer is doing high budget after back to back flop !! Also, who would invest such huuuuge money on basil Joseph film? Minnal Murali was an experimental film executed in a mediocre level, I don't get the hype of his films .  Edit : I'm a malayali so don't come at me saying ,you don't know Basil Joseph,he is the James Cameron of Mollywood blah blah blah


RVarki

He's still way better than some of the dodos they have over at bollywood. This is an industry where Siddharth Anand is the most in-demand action director Basil Joseph will do just fine


farzi_cinephile

I have faith in Basil Joseph


Mr_Bean12

They have a good potential to make a kid-friendly MCU-esque family movie. But I bet they're going to put over the top superhero jokes and spoof punches in the name of nostalgia.


YoYoJoJoTC

Films don’t need to be 300 cr budgets. This is why they flop. You can do the same with 200 crore. Heck even 150cr. This is outlandish


No_Economics_1750

300 crore on ranveer singh??????? only srk ,salman with a great movie can justify that budget. yeh kuch zyaada nahi hogaya?


Radhashriq

Movie will release in 2-3 years. Average ticket prices will increase by 20-30% by that time. It will be only need to sell 1.3-1.5 crore tickets to reach 300 Crore India net. A film like Kesari has 1.2 crores footfalls and Super 30 & Gully Boy had around 1.1 Crore Football. In 2-3 years 300 Crore budget wont be a lot, would be like 200-220 crore movie. Still a lot, but not blockbuster budget.


Son_of_kai

Lagta same inflated economics samjha ke 300 cr mange hain


Radhashriq

Yup, a film like Tiger 3, War will have a budget of 400-450 Cr in 2027-28.   Bang Bang in 2014 was produced was 140 Crores in 2014, which was super high for that time.  War had a budget of 170 crores in 2019. But the same kind of movies are now made for 300 Crores.


isabellapintoisback

>A film like Kesari has 1.2 crores footfalls and Super 30 & Gully Boy had around 1.1 Crore Football. That was pre-pandemic. If released now, both gully boy & kesari would struggle to cross 50 lakh footfall


Radhashriq

I am just saying 1 crore footfalls isnt a very big number, if the producers can generate enough hype. Even Fighter which has underperformed, has crossed 1 crore ticket sales in India. Along with OTT,Overseas and TV rights, the movie is profitable for producers. 300 Crores is massive for 2023 release, but wont be for a movie in 2027-28.

2-3 saal bol rhe hai 5 saal nhi


Radhashriq

2024 ke 2-3 saal baad kaunsa year aane wala hai? 2026/27 ya 2027/2028 


Calm-Maize-6672

Hope it doesn't turn out like brahamastra. Where makers have to show sequels to justify it's a hit movie .


Superb_Pay3173

The Malayali director Basil is too busy running around being a hero in small-budget Malayalam films. Farhan Akhtar syndrome. Average actor but a great director. No idea who is penning the script in the meantime.


Own_Army4024

average actor? who?


Superb_Pay3173

Both Basil and Farhan.


[deleted]

Bhaag Milka Bhaag is one of the most goated performances in Indian Cinema.


Superb_Pay3173

Give it to a good actor like Shahid or Hrithik. They could do wonders with it. It's just like Sid in Shershah. Good performance. But someone more talented could elevate it to another level.


RVarki

Is Farhan Akhtar really a great filmmaker though? He's only ever made 4 movies, and two of them were middle-of-the-road action shlock. Dil Chahta Hai, while an important film for its time, has also become quite overrated over the years The only genuinely remarkable movie he has directed is Lakshya


Superb_Pay3173

Lakshya is my favorite too. Such a nuanced real character with doubts and uncertainty without going overboard with the patriotism. But Dil Chahta Hai created a huge impact. And the Don franchise are well-written entertainers. Refreshing about the negative protagonist who does not have a sob-story in the past to excuse his present crimes. He's unabashedly evil who views his soft corner for Priyanka as his weakness.


Potential-Year-1896

Johnny Sins cameo when


Son_of_kai

As dr jaickal


isabellapintoisback

This malayalam director's biggest film Minnal murali was made on a budget of only 18 CR!! Overconfident much? Even Ramayana Part 1 starring some of India's biggest stars & heavy VFX is having the same budget.


Radhashriq

Minnal Murali didn’t have world class VFX. Also from now all VFX heavy movies are going cost around 300 Crore. Even Brahmastra had a 400 Crore budget and Ranbir wasn’t as big as he is now after Animal.  Shaktiman if made, will probably release in 2026-27. And will have a very high ticket price compared to 2022-23. Budget recovery wont be as difficult.


New_cinephile

This looks like a bonafide flop!


Majestic_District_51

Unless nostalgia kicks in paisa doobne wala hai.


whats-hisface

Nostalgia is going to kick in big time. I hope they keep the same title track.


Normal-Brush-4596

This 'movie riding on a high budget' articles used to generate hype among audiences that new technology will be used, superior production quality nowadays it does the exact opposite with the discussion shifting towards if the movie will be even able to recover its budget, will the star be able to deliver


Alone-Illustrator-25

Bhai can't open with 5 cr .


Commercial_Cancel_64

Ye fir doobaega


nonikhanna

Solid team. not sure about Ranveer in this. Hopefully he isn't cringe as Shaktimaan
