New Delhi. Ajay Devgan’s film Maidaan was released on April 10 this year. The audience had a lot of expectations about this film, although it flopped at the box office. Critics and audiences praised the film. But the film could not achieve any success at the box office. Now, about a month after the release of the film, the producer of the film Boney Kapoor talked about its failure. He has put the blame for the film’s flop on the audience. In his recent interview, he sarcastically said that today’s audience only wants to watch films like ‘Jawaan’ and RRR.
While talking to PTI, Boney claimed that he had thought of bringing a very good film story on screen. He said- The subject we chose was amazing, and our actor (Ajay Devgan) was also excellent, but somehow we could not understand the demand of the audience. Today’s audience wants to watch action films like RRR, ‘Jawaan’ and ‘Pathan’.
films flopped continuously
Let us tell you, after the huge success of Shahrukh Khan’s Pathan, Jawan and Animal last year, Bollywood films continuously proved to be flops in terms of success at the box office. There was hope of recovery from this recession with two big films in the month of April – ‘Maidan’ and ‘Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan’. But both the films released on Eid failed at the box office. On the other hand, two Malayalam films released on Eid, ‘Aavesham’ and ‘Varshangalakku Shesham’ performed brilliantly.
total collection of maidan movie
Now if we talk about the earnings of the film Maidan, it has collected only Rs 67 crores at the box office worldwide, while it has collected Rs 48.54 crores in India. According to trade website Sacnilk, the film has been able to make only Rs 51 crore in 32 days. In such a situation, looking at the film’s earnings, this film became a flop film of 2024.
