Paid reviews

I watched the movie yesterday and I think it was as bad a Ra.One or maybe worse. I don't know how can such crap get so many positive reviews. And then I understood that saving money from pre-release movie promotions and then spending it to generate and artificial positive social media response will soon be a new trend. I think they did the same with Bahubali. An imdb rating of 8+ can be generated with 4k votes by spending a little money with dummy users to influence public opinion and rest is fanfare. It's a new way to cheat the audience and a brilliant marketing strategy for an absolute dud.

The trailer was so good. I had high expectations but the movie fell flat. I found it boring baring the 1st part of 2nd half (a few minutes that is)

I like how Shahrukh had to do the double roles for a fictional FAN character in this movie, why can't this big budget movie gets some teenage actor for the character from National School of Drama Academy to be featured in? I mean what's up with the Bollywood always casting big stars and their sons/daughters in their movies?

Hollywood knows how to choose teen actors/actress for their big budget movies if they need that and look now they are all big stars well yes some failed and some are underrated but that's how it works, why can't Bollywood get their asses out of their head and hire some professional acting career seeking people from Acting schools? I know for the fact there are some well known Theater performances every week or month in some states of India just sign them up and casting-call and signup depending if they are good enough for that role. SRK is bigoted, over-rated and over-paid actor. His movies before DAAR was good after that it's all pile of *beep*

Nah! I assume it's a voluntary job done by the hard FAN fans! If you have such a fan base why would you spend money 🤔

Life has to go on Jack. With or without God.

Totally agree !! I mean Ra One was a hit but how .. it was crappy as hell and as for you mentioning Bahubali, I watched it in its 5th week and when people were coming out of the theaters, there was a puzzled look on their face that spelled " what th Hell just happened "
