AB Corp & Viacom18 Motion Pictures' co-production 'Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap', is a film which is made in a controlled budget of approx Rs. 10 crores and has been aggressively marketed and distributed.
The film, being a mass and family entertainer, has hit the right chord. It is reported that 'BHTB' has made a staggering Rs. 13.5 cores via sale of satellite rights pre-release and the popular music by Vishal & Shekhar was brought by T-Series. All other rights and steady performance at the box-office, to begin with, will overall result in good profits for the producers.
'BHTB' started on a gradual note on Friday but being a family movie, audience turn-out jumped significantly on Saturday and Sunday which saw a phenomenal jump, leading to a net weekend collection of an impressive Rs. 7.50 crores approx., say trade sources. Overseas business for 'BHTB' also followed a similar pattern with admissions remaining consistent.
In the recent past, three films by Viacom18 - 'Tanu Weds Manu', 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama' and 'Shaitan' - have all benefitted from steady performance at the box-office with collections building over an extended run at cinemas.
The audience has lapped up 'BTHB' given that Amitabh Bachchan is a legend and an icon of our country like none other. His return to the silver screen in his trademark angry and flamboyant style has driven his fans to a state of hysteria! Amitabh Bachchan is back with a bang with this landmark film in Indian Cinema history and 'Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap' will always be remembered, as the film that gave this new generation a chance to witness Bachchan.
Amitabh Bachchan once again proves that he is the Baap of Bollywood ,fans from all over the country are rushing to theatres to catch Bachchan's most spectacular comeback as the 'Original Action Hero' on the big screen. Bachchan's power packed dialogues and impressive actions sequences were met with 'seetis' and applause from fans.
The film is a perfect family entertainer. Big B is one of the very few actors in Indian Cinema who enjoys such a fan following from audiences of all ages. We hope to see more such Bachchan magic on the big screen in the coming future!
