These days the best way to get instant attention for your film is to mix it up in some controversy and generate free mileage. Sometimes, that mileage results in collections at the box office. However, there are also films which get the reverse result.
The latest Bollywood release Raabta featuring Sushant Singh Rajput and the leggy lass Kriti Sanon was grabbing attention for its controversy. It was touted as a freemake of the Telugu blockbuster Magadheera. Though it got the legal clearance, the controversy didn’t help.
The film is being ripped apart by the film critics and normally these critics opinions are given a lot of weight in the north. Barring the onscreen chemistry between the lead pair, the film has been squashed to pulp by the audience as well. This certainly is the recipe for a disaster.
