No matter how famous a movie star is, if the reviews are bad, the movie can still fail. Also, having a famous star doesn't always guarantee that a movie will attract huge openings.
Kangana Ranaut's recent movie "Tejas" serves as an example.
Despite her popularity, the film didn't attract many people to the theaters because of negative reviews. Within a week, it experienced a further decline in box office performance.
After a significant drop in viewership on the first Monday, the action film only made Rs 35 lakh on the fifth day, bringing its total collection to Rs 4.50 crore.
Kangana Ranaut, the award-winning actress, faced disappointment with two recent movie releases - "Chandramuhi-2" in down South and "Tejas" in Bollywood.
Even her earlier films Dhaakad, Thalaivii and Panga were box office failures. The last film which she has bagged national recognition was only the 2019 release "Manikarnika".
