'There is no unity here'
Mumbai: The producer in Sohail Khan laments that top stars of the industry are busy eating into each other's revenue pie as he admits that his much-hyped Diwali release has suffered because of two other movies releasing at the same time.

"No one is united in the industry. Everyone is bothered about their own product. But they fail to understand that by doing so they are causing harm to the industry. Three Diwali releases is a suicidal thing. People are just paying fines for delaying release dates. All the movies have taken a hit due to this. Actors should come forward and take a decision to avoid each other's releases so that every film can do clean uninterrupted business," Sohail says.

He also feels that critics need to review movies on Mondays and not on Fridays as reviews can make or break a film. "I think reviewers should give a clean three-day run to every film and leave it on audiences to choose which one to watch. By writing a film off on a Friday, they indirectly cause a lot of harm to that movie and business definitely gets affected by such scathing reviews. Moreover, not many critics are unbiased today.

Campism in Bollywood is rampant and one critic owing allegiance to a particular star tends to trash the movie of his rival," he ends.

If you didn't make bad films you wouldn't get bad reviews that "break" the film Sohail.

What is with this pity party attitude?

Sohail, if three movies relasing on the same day is suicidal, then why not just move yours to another date? You could've preponed it if you didn't want to delay the movie

EXACTLY my point. He's whining about other releases being on diwaali, then why not shift ur own?
Stop making excuses Sohail. Your promotions sucked and on top of htat, ht emovie was boring. I wont say its a BAD movie, but it certainly wasnt a good movie.
Be man enough to admit it flopped for good reason. All the best managed to do well didnt it?
I mean your lead actress knew this movie wouldnt work for quite a long time, lol.
Kareenas enthusiasm had already warned her fans before hand...thank god the girl knows which movies are good and bad so her reaction kinda tells us where to hope nad where to not.
Even wiht KI her statements like, "go watch my shoes in the movie" gave us an idea of what ot expect 😆

Haven't seen the film, but the promos always looked sort of drab and it never had the kind of buzz that LAK, Kaminey or KI did. So why not just move it to another date. Was there any major release last week?

And I don't know why people complain about critics ganging up on them. They are doing their jobs. Hey Maybe like they did with Blue, Sohail should have invited Taran Adarsh to a "special private screening" where he can watch the film and give it a good review.

^^^
Taran Adarsh gives reviews on how the movie will work at the box office, except 2 or 3 his reviews are rather fine and straight, if u look at his reviews throughly he has given nice reviews to kaminey, LAK and luck and many others, people call him a chamcha of shahrukh khan, but people forget he gave only 2 stars to RNBDJ.
