Shahid Kapoor tasted his last success with Kabir Singh!
Shahid has always been a brilliant performer, and he has proved his acting chops time and again, with some of his portrayals even turning out to be cult. Sadly, its performance at the box office has not been quite good. For those who don’t know, his last successful film was Kabir Singh, which also marked the Bollywood debut of Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Kabir Singh was a remake of 2017’s Tollywood hit, Arjun Reddy. Released in 2019, Kabir Singh did a rocking business and was a massive hit with a collection of 278.24 crores. However, following a colossal success, Shahid Kapoor faced another downturn as the post-pandemic era proved challenging for him at the box office. After the Sandeep Reddy Vanga directorial, the actor took the route of remake yet again, but this time, he failed miserably.
Jiya’s return after the failure of Jersey and getting so entangled in your words
Shahid Kapoor’s Jersey, released in 2022, was a huge disaster at the Indian box office, and after that debacle, he’s coming straight in 2024 with Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya. Shahid has been good in light-hearted films, and luckily, the audience has started giving mid-range entertainers in Bollywood a chance.
Last year, we saw films like Zara Hatke Zara Bachke and SatyaPrem Ki Katha enjoying commercial success, thus bringing back the charm of Bollywood’s mid-range films. And who knows, after an underwhelming performance by Fighter, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya might surprise us.
As of now, the film is enjoying a decent buzz, with a couple off songs doing well. Even the trailer gave off the feel of a popcorn entertainer. So, it now boils down to the content. Even with justifiable entertainment value, the movie stands a good chance of performing well at the Indian box office.
