Mumbai:
Veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai pointed out that the massive box‑office successes of “Jawan” and the newcomer‑led hit “Saiyaara” are clear evidence of how quickly India’s movie‑theatre network is expanding.
He noted that the two films have crossed impressive milestones of Rs 800 crore and Rs 400 crore, showing that audiences are more eager than ever to fill cinema halls. These results, according to Ghai, give a big confidence boost to actors, directors, and producers across Bollywood.
On his Instagram account, Ghai posted a photo of a cinema auditorium and added the caption: “If a commercial film like Jawan cud do box office for 800 cr n SAIYARA for 400 cr with new comers in India- confirms that’s our housefull capacity in indian theatres if we are doing a business of any film with 100 cr means equal of 25 % of Saiyara N 12% of jawanWAKE UP SID Actors directors writers investors today Bless u.”
