'Terrible Films Sometimes Make A Lot Of Money' Hansal Mehta Says Movies Shouldn't Be Judged By Box Office Numbers

So, I just read this article that talks about how terrible films sometimes make a lot of money. My first thought was, “yeah, tell that to all the talented struggling filmmakers out there”. But after reading it, I have to say that I agree with Hansal Mehta. Movies shouldn’t be judged solely by box office numbers.

Mehta is an Indian director who has made some critically acclaimed films, but they haven’t always been successful at the box office. He argues that movies are not just a product to be sold, they are a form of art. And like any form of art, they should be judged on their artistic merit, not just their commercial success.

This is important because it means that filmmakers can take risks and make movies that are truly unique and thought-provoking, without worrying about whether or not it will make money. And as moviegoers, it’s important to support these types of films, even if they don’t become blockbusters.

Personally, I remember watching a movie with my friends that we all thought was terrible, but it ended up making hundreds of millions of dollars. We were all so confused and couldn’t figure out how such a bad movie could make so much money. But after reading this article, it makes more sense. Sometimes, people just want to escape and watch something mindless, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But we shouldn’t let the box office numbers dictate what we consider good or bad.

In conclusion, while it may be frustrating to see awful movies make a ton of money, it’s important to remember that there’s more to a movie than its financial success. By supporting unique and thought-provoking films, we can help promote creativity in the industry and encourage filmmakers to take risks.
