Anil Kapoor Reacts To Boycott Trends & Bollywood Films Facing Continuous Box Office Flops: “Yeh Silsila Toh Kaafi Saalo Se Chal Raha Hai”

What:  Bollywood has been facing turmoil at the box office. Biggies like Salman Khan’s Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Akshay Kumar’s Selfiee, and Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha also failed to impress the audience at the theatres. Since Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan, fans have been waiting for another Hindi film to come up with a blockbuster. Anil Kapoor however says it’s nothing unusual.

Furthermore: Talking about the current scenario, Anil Kapoor told Indian Express, “I have been working for so many years; my father (Surinder Kapoor) was also in this industry, so we’ve been here for around 60 years. Actors, directors, producers talking about films working and not working… yeh silsila toh kaafi saalo se chal raha hai (Such things keep happening). There are phases… for example, for two years a particular type of films don’t work and people say industry bandh ho rahi hai (the industry is closing down).”

We say: Hmm… what Anil Kapoor says, does make a lot of sense. Actually if we look at the bigger picture, Bollywood is not going anywhere. Like our screen Lakhan says, “It’s just a phase.”
