He's moving away from the historical genre and his next film, Inshallah, is a rom-com. I did read some comments here in which people were saying that historical genre is his USP and people just won't be interested in watching his modern/urban films anymore.

Do you think this is true? Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was a romantic drama which turned out to be a massive success.

PS: I know people are sceptic about Salman-Alia pairing and so am I 🤢 but would you be interested in watching this film if it had Deepika, Anushka etc.?

It's not gonna work imo. Most of his non historical/non period movies like Khamoshi, Black, Saawriya and Guzaarish are flops.

What? Black didn't flop. It was an average grosser and I honestly don't think BO figures should be given that much importance when it comes to a film like Black.

Black was one of the highest Indian grossing films that year.

HDDCS isn't that success as Devdas. It is just cult classic.
