'War 2' Box-Office: Hrithik Roshan-Junior NTR's film crashes on Monday by 75%, multiplexes cancel shows
The reported budget of the film is Rs 450 crore and the lifetime collections will be far lesser than part one of the franchise The reason why War stood out was because, unlike a lot of other vanity vehicles that reek of hollowness and are content with their pretentious set pieces, this one didn't forget to grab the vulnerable edges of their superhuman creatures. Hrithik Roshan and Tiger's Shroff's chemistry is for the ages. The sequel failed to live up to the hype, with Junior NTR taking charge. War 2 collected only approx Rs 8 crore on Monday and the collections have crashed by 75%, with multiplexes cancelling a few shows due to no audience. The reported budget of the film is Rs 450 crore and the lifetime collections will be far lesser than part one of the franchise. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The problem is the uneven pacing. The problem is the expectation set by part one. The problem is to take giant leaps and still be at the same place where you were. The problem is how somebody keeps the world at your feet and you're still not entirely and effortlessly swayed. The problem is you want things to happen but nothing moves. The problem is how your movie moves from one stunning locale to another so rapidly that none register. The problem is a flashback so random that belongs to an entirely different film. Also, this is the third time, after Agneepath and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, that a wrong actor has been cast to play the younger version of Hrithik Roshan. Are we supposed to believe and buy into the fact that this man, who lets his smouldering aura do the talkin,g belonged to the streets? War 2 showed promise, not as a coherent story, but at least dumbed-down, cheerful fun when it began. But just like Tiger 3, it began to take itself way too seriously when all it needed to do was guffaw at its silliness. Some endless conversations and combats barely serve any purpose. The sheer disappointment of the enterprise fails its two competent leading men, that have shone in masala stories before.

This film outperformed Maine Pyar Kiya and Ram Lakhan in 1989, earning its lead the Best Actor award over Rishi Kapoor
The year 1989 remains one of the most exciting in Bollywood's history. Big stars lit up the box office, and films crossed unexpected milestones. Salman Khan exploded onto the big screen with Maine Pyar Kiya, winning hearts across India. Rishi Kapoor's Chandni created waves with its music and romance. Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff also enjoyed a strong year with their multi-hero films. Yet, amidst these big names, one actor walked away with the ultimate glory. Which films dominated the Box Office? From love stories to masala entertainers, 1989 offered everything. Maine Pyar Kiya became the highest-grossing film of the year, cementing Salman's entry into superstardom. Ram Lakhan, Tridev, Chalbaaz, Ghar Ka Chirag, Elaan-E-Jung, Mahadev, Prem Pratigya and Daata kept the cash registers ringing. Yash Chopra's Chandni, with Rishi Kapoor and Sridevi, added classic romance to the mix. But awards are not always about collections. They are about performances that leave a mark. Best actor nominees At the 1990 Filmfare Awards, only four actors from 1989's slate made it to the Best Actor category: Jackie Shroff (Parinda) Anil Kapoor (Eeshwar) Salman Khan (Maine Pyar Kiya) Rishi Kapoor (Chandni) With such heavyweights in the race, the result was anyone's guess. How did Jackie Shroff seal his place? Against all odds, it was Jackie Shroff who won the Best Actor award for Parinda. The performance struck a chord with critics and audiences alike. What made the moment unforgettable was his arrival on stage with his infant son Tiger Shroff in his arms. Born in 1990, Tiger unknowingly shared his father's biggest career high. Veteran actress Rekha presented Jackie with the award, sealing a golden moment in Filmfare history. Why was Parinda so special? Released on 3 November 1989, Parinda, directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, stood out for its gritty storytelling. Alongside Jackie, the film starred Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, and Madhuri Dixit. Known for its intense performances and realistic portrayal of Mumbai's underworld, the film was hailed as a cult classic. Nana Patekar, in particular, was lauded for his chilling role, while Jackie's layered performance made the film timeless. Box Office vs Awards While Salman Khan's Maine Pyar Kiya ruled the box office and Rishi Kapoor's Chandni remained a cultural gem, Jackie Shroff's Parinda earned him the respect of the industry. His 1990 Filmfare Best Actor win remains one of Bollywood's most memorable surprises, a reminder that sometimes, performances outshine stardom.
