Jawan was produced by Red Chillies which is owned by SRK. The whole 60 percent profit plus 100 crore fee is just him reinvesting the money back into his production company. And given that Atlee is the director while SRK being the lead, it was guarantied that this film will make massive bank. SRK is actually a very smart guy; he knows the economics of the industry in-and-out and know which projects to place bets on. Also, a big chunk of his money actually goes into VFX division of Red Chillies which India's top VFX STUDIO.

One solution to this problem could be to make movies with new actors who are formally trained in acting, such as FTII graduates. This way, a lot of new fresh talent would get an opportunity to get introduced and the producers can spend more money on hiring experienced directors and behind the scene artists as well as visual and other special effects.

A slight correction: L' accoudour the french movie was the inspiration for Andhadun, you can't say it's a remake. the french film is a short film which is 13 mins long while the Andhadhun movie is 2 hours+, the concept is the same but the story expands and adds so much more. i wouldn't call it a remake.

Also, the another reason is lack of movies, adapted from Indian literature. If you look in Hollywood, you will find many movies which were adapted from literature. Forrest Gump was also an adaptation from a novel of the same name. I have read some of the stories of writers like Bhagwati Charan Verma, Munshi Premchanda, Mridula Garga and Vijay Tendulkar. And I will tell you most of the Indian writers of 20th century were very much ahead of their time and you will also enjoy their stories. Most of these writers had come to the film industry but they ended up being disappointed with the system. But some writers like Vijay Tendulkar had written screenplays of some of finest films like Manthan, Ardhasatya, Nishant. I also recommend you to read his plays. If you don't have time to read the indian literature, atleast hear the radio play adaptations of them, produced by Aakashvani.

[@abritanath]

I don't think it can be a big reason. Our bengali film industry, which we call as Tollywood, is currently at the worst phase that we don't even know what films have released in last 5 years. But what we've seen, atleast >50% of our films are direct adaptations, with genres ranging from romance, horror, detective, social setup/periodic. What I believe, why Bollywood is failing (even our industry) and the Southern industries are thriving, us because they have larger level of conviction and think out of the box. You can have millions of stories written for you, but if you lack the ability to setup it in large frame in grandeur, it's waste of money.

[@geisha-12]

But that is the case with Bollywood, they can do grandeur and large scale easily. But they need to appreciate story and writers. Good writer - director is the foundation of a film, not an A list actor.

[@codeserra]

wrt to writers, Korean industry seem to be doing something right. They give due credit to the writers, many dramas would have hype around who the writer is compared to actors. Since Kdrama caters to an international audience rather than relying on star power, many times writers will also be part of casting. You can also see interviews where writers like kim yun sook would share why they took a particular actor for their story.

Let's also talk about Kantara's prequel, Chapter One. from 16 cr of Kantara to 125 cr of Kantara chapter one. The thing was that the actor was not a star before so he was no one but now he is at least for that movie, so fees up. Same is the case with KGF.

Take out the lists of the top 200 films made in India, most of them are in Hindi or Bengali language, this sudden negative campaign against Bollywood is only running down South. Not a fan of SRK but the man showed how at 58 he is far better than most of the Southern superstars being hero-worshipped amongst their audience, two films already crossed the 1000cr + marks one more biggie left.

One more issue that I feel is really important is Many movies releases EVERY Friday and the trend will or somewhat have been established with OTT's also for Sunday. Do not pressure artists for such a useless norm of every friday release is a must. Unnecessary time limitations will not give better art so just forget about Masterpieces. There is absolutely never-ending material already present in the world of Cinema that is sufficient for any individual for a lifetime, so it is my sincere request to all the movie studios, filmmakers that take your time and give it to the writers to create something meaningful, put your money in surveys and do the needful accordingly. We have such an audience right now that is mature enough to understand complex stories.

[@theFedUpGuy]

Main problem with Bollywood is: Bollywood movies are mostly low in IQ and actors stardom centric rather than content centric (Irrespective of few directors) If they continue to do so then we will witness the fall of Bollywood Sometimes I just think what the hell they are doing... The reach that Bollywood has in India also around the world if they had focused more on content than actors stardom also inefficient star kids by bringing/exploring new faces around India Today instead of struggling, Bollywood could compete Hollywood Indian Film Makers should set standard, evolve and make movies like Marvel Studios, John Wick, Avatar, Jurassic Park, Matrix, Terminator etc. instead of Bheekh manga, Gharelu Bibaad, Emotional Fool movies, Illogical Love stories etc.

I don't think lack of material is an issue. even producers will easily find these literature pieces and plays etc. but they will never adapt it due to lack of majority interest or risk of losing money after paying the actors in crores. it may sound bad but the primary source of money is common people and common people in india are not mature enough or simply not interested in seeing those movies. Also in the west they have relatively homogenized language and culture(except the immigrants but even they adapt) so you can easily adapt because lot of people are interested already. I feel even if tomorrow someone makes a great adaptation with big stars it will fail cuz common people don't want to waste their hard earned money to see no action no item song , no hot scenes. atleast thats how i feel.

[@prabhatsourya3883]

I want to add about the studio era. Being a person from Andhra Pradesh, I can say this: Some of the Epic classics, which are even widely acclaimed to this day were made during the studio era. Films like Mayabazaar (1957) and Pathala Bhairavi (1951) were epic fantasy movies, which were made by the Vijaya Vauhini studio, are still considered classic movies even to this day, with their beautiful dialogues, set pieces, and story+screenplay combinations.

@@PantheraGoat you have to be bold enough to ask for more as well. Unless you ask, male producer will not pay you more than what you think you are worth.

One correction (in 19:34), Andhadhun wasn't a remake remake of L'accordeur, just that it had taken an inspiration from it, big difference as many and most original movies take inspiration from some movies or others. L'accordeur was a 14 minute short film, while Andhadhun was a 2+ hr long movie, with personal dynamics, twists and interests driving the movie.

[@shivamchakraborty9573]

@@DeeprajChauhan-oh8vvnot defending anyone or anything, but andhadhun was genuinely not a remake in the genral sense, remakes have almost the entire plot same as the original, run time not very different, many scenes are remade but in different context, but this movie (as per the admission of the creators) had taken inspiration from that short film, as in the part where a fake blind pianist witnessed a murder, but it wasn’t shot-for-shot remake, instead they expanded on the story with character motivations, greed, lust and dynamics, and finally a open eding, something the 14 minute short film lacked. Look mate I believe bollywood needs ti learn from different industries (also the its old self) but this was one of those movies that was innovative and different from other bollywood movies, and you will find many ‘acclaimed movies’ that are infact inspired by other movies but take a very different turn from the original movie and only have a fraction of it similar.
