¡®Judwaa 2¡¯ Has Become 2017¡¯s Highest Grosser After ¡®Baahubali 2¡¯ & Cinema Just Died A Slow Death
Just wanted to spend time with your girlfriend so you watched Judwaa 2? Or didn't have any plans for the weekend so thought let's relive the Salman Khan starrer? Or for any given reason you watched the movie -- take a bow! You deserve it along with slow claps, because it is because of you that the movie has become the second highest grosser of the year after the magnum opus Baahubali 2. Yes, that has happened, and you can take a moment to gulp down that fact.
Yes, Judwaa 2 has crossed the lifetime collection of films such as Raees and Toilet Ek Prem Katha.
#Judwaa2 is now the SECOND HIGHEST GROSSER of 2017 *so far*, after #Baahubali2... Crosses lifetime biz of #Raees and #ToiletEkPremKatha...

The fact that films like Newton and Lipstick Under My Burkha didn't perform as big as Judwaa 2 makes us wonder what's wrong with our choices. These films won accolades across the globe. In fact, Newton became India's official entry for the Oscars. It's disappointing to see that these films didn't earn well in their home countries.
And then we talk about how Bollywood is melodramatic and prefers the vanilla style of Hollywood films.
