Forum PointsDiwali 'dhamaka' BLUE has a running time of just under two hours, 1
hour and 58 minutes to be precise. This was recently disclosed by the
director Anthony D'Souza. If one muses over the reason(s) it is very
simple. The film is a taut thriller that needed to be short in order to
be crisp so that it could provide a full on entertainment,
edge-of-the-seat thrill, without getting into too may complicated
sub-plots, thereby confusing the audience.
CHECK OUT: Akshay back to school for BLUE
Apart from the film being a crisp taut thriller, the short length will
also see the film being screened in far more number of shows as
compared to other films (read, ALL THE BEST...FUN BEGINS and MAIN AURR
MRS KHANNA), which release along with BLUE. This would then mean more
viewing, more moolah, especially in its opening festive week as
multiplexes like PVR (which are also the exhibitors) can go in for a
more a saturated release and hence BLUE can throw up some extremely
huge numbers. Real smart thinking on part of its makers, Shree
Ashtavinayak!
Well, our patrons will now understand why Ashutosh Gowariker's recent
release, WHAT'S YOUR RAASHEE? suffered. The reason is obvious, even
those who liked the well made film, with a totally novel script, lost
their patience as the proceedings dragged on. The director was
forewarned about the excessive length playing spoil sport in its box
office result, but he did not relent and hence the inevitable fate and
loss of revenue, despite a good start at select multiplexes.
