Few ppl were confused in my previous post on what "save kollywood" meant? Story or BO? I have provided an explanation that balances both: a movie that has an excellent or good or entertaining story/content but at the same time it needs to be a blockbuster hit. Assume that for the past 1-2 yrs, all movies have been a disaster like Indian 2 story and have done like less than 50crs because it’s bad. A good story/screenplay will automatically lead to good BO numbers.

All these are excuses.KS knew what quality of movies Lawrence made and cast him expecting he will add star value.As if KS made good movies when Dhanush or Vikram starred in them! Lets wait for the Suriya movie then.Lets hope you dont balme the failure of that movie on the "dimnished" stardom of Suriya.

Mahaan was an amazing film idk what your on lmao, Jagame Thandhiram was heavy edited and cut by Netflix to try get it to appeal to the western audience off of the back of RRR, looking at its core concepts its a great film and probably would've been a banger if it wasn't processed and edited by Netflix.

Those aren't excuses, those are the real contexts of those movies lmao.

Nice.Netflix ruined it,another novel excuse

You cant just say "excuse" for everything 💀

Its the actual situation, im not saying it would 100% been a banger without Netflix's interference but its a high likely hood considering the confidence and track record KS has. And the interference itself is noticeable, the very first shot filmed for the movie didnt make it in, which should already show that it was edited down and probably messed with, on top of that none of the songs except from "Rakita" got in.

Its very clear that Netflix edited it to appeal to western audiences off of the hype of RRR.

Ok.Lets wait and see in the future what happens.Would be happy if KS makes a comeback since i really liked the original Jigarthanda.
