A
box office analysis of A.R.Rahman’s
movies |
|
There
are no second thoughts when
it comes to Rahman’s talent
and his endowment to the world
of Indian cinema with his music.
He definitely made every Indian
proud by hailing from down south
and going all the way to Hollywood.
Indian musical talent was never
a matter of so much debate before
Rahman’s existence. But
the box office success of his
movies has hit an alarming decline.
There was a time when movies
with his music were assured
of a good run even before the
movie was released. That situation
has changed. Here is an investigative
report on the reasons. |
