Fashion and Dostana and Strike in TV Industry

Nov 18, 2008

It seems strike in TV industry is boosting up trade collections at box office. It might be blessing in disguise for film industry.

Though, according to trade analysts and media critics, Fashion and Dostana are good films otherwise also, enabling them to have a good run at the box-office anyway, but the strike in the Television industry has helped them to get better results than what was expected from them by these analysts. Alongside, films released earlier like Golmaal Returns have also been benefited by the strike.

The biggest gainer among all is Dostana, as it has recorded a 80-90% collection in first 3 days of its release. The Cinema owners across India especially the owners of multiplexes in big Metropolitan like Mumbai and Delhi are very happy with their business is booming as a result of this strike.

Well, if the strike continues, other big films like Yuvraj, Rab Ne Banna Di Jodi and Ghajni are going be hugely benefited as more people bored of watching the repeat telecast of the same programs on Television are expected to be drawn towards the theaters. The producers of these big budgeted movies may even consider of releasing their movies before the scheduled date if they find that the strike of television producers is helping them too.

But as someone’s loss is other person’s gain, the gain of film producers and multiplex and other cinema hall owners is someone’s loss also. And unfortunately, that someone in this case is you and me, the middle class household people, who are not regular cinema goers or feel that shelling out a sum of two hundred twice or thrice a week just to watch a movie is nothing but waste of money.
