Judge yourself - business of subject oriented films

They work with passion and planning. Even though they are not offered lavish funds for films but their dedication to face challenges make them a fighter. To share their vision all they need - a trust within their self to give a best possible creative work . They are the new age film makers.

As I have discussed earlier too, Films with subject & treatment (no big stars) are doing great . A few recent films can be mentioned in this regard - 'AAMIR', 'WEDNESDAY', 'ROCK ON', 'JAANE TU..." etc. to name a few.

Publicity and promotions make a difference to reach out to the public but a film can not sail through on that only. Good films always find it's way to the hearts of people. A point to be noticed is that- new age film makers are giving more hits ( business wise ) than big shot. Why so?

Today's audience is mature enough to welcome different new subjects apart from those age old ones. They wish to see new aspect of film making, new visions. But all good things does not appear on it own. They expect encouragements but are we really thinking in that line?

Go...gather & join hands with these new age people.....you will feel the part of revolution.

Bollywood's trend but foresight.......??

Glamour is integral to film world and mostly people are prone to conceive their thoughts referring to glossy magazines and articles.Some crash land here while chasing their dreams and some stands tall or survive to sudden jolts. It's a rough terrain and survival demands - patience, endurance, humanity, opportunities, luck & lot more.
It's also a smart example for co-ordination theory of commerce where finance merges with creative intellect to market a business on large scale. And it's really having huge potential for it's expansion in the near future.

Changing Indian film trend is encouraging lot more new pool of talents to tap the potential and it seems going great. Nowadays a lot more films are welcomed because of their subject and treatment and they are doing great business. So called small films ( Budgeting 2-3 crore approx.) are doing better business against their investment while the big budgeted films are more prone to losses ( keep aside a few exceptions). but still there is a rush for star system style of making which have been followed always.
Corporate houses jumping into this market with their full strength is an indication that there is lot to happen in this changing scenario of film market where multiplexes and digitization of theaters could lead us towards a new beginning, where film with fresh ideas and beautiful treatment would be breeze amid a mad rush.
Hope we shall see a lot more new ideas shaping up in films rather than those age old mad rush
A few questions:
  • Film world is an industry now and it works well (business wise) in a planned way, then why people hesitate to plunge into it to tap it's potential when it's in a phase of transition?
  • Don't they have a fore-sight or rather they only go for 'follow the leader' type of vision?
