Hello, friends!
About a couple of years ago,
everyone was talking about this topic.
Is Bollywood coming to an end?
Are we nearing the
end of Bollywood?
But then came the year 2023.
Shahrukh Khan released 3 films.
Jawan, Pathan, and Dunki.
And these brought a
tsunami at the box office.
They broke many
box office records.
With these, a new life was
breathed into Bollywood.
After these, came Tiger 3,
Rocky Rani Ki Prem Kahani,
Oh My God 2, Dream
Girl 2, Sam Bahadur,
these films raked
in a lot of money.
If we talk about films in
other Indian languages,
in 2021, the share
of Hindi films,
that is Bollywood's share
in overall Indian box office
was only 19%.
But in 2023, it
increased to 44%.
From Gadar 2 to Stree 2,
Bollywood kept breaking
new records one after the other.
That's why the discussion of
Bollywood's end is almost over.
Very few people are now doubting
the survival of the Bollywood industry.
But today, in this video,
I would like to raise
this question again.
Because behind all
these box office records,
there lies a bitter truth.
A truth which makes me say that
Bollywood has lost its soul.
And is slowly killing itself.
The reason isn't
what you might think.
But you will start seeing
the consequences soon.
In this video, let's understand
the story of Bollywood's downfall.
The first reason is obvious.
The shock to
Bollywood during Covid.
"A total lockdown
to protect you."
