Director-producer Anil Sharma’s film Vanvaas, which was released in December last year, did not do well at the box office. The film starred his son Utkarsh Sharma alongside Nana Patekar. As the film gears up for its satellite release soon, in an exclusive conversation with Koimoi, he has opened up about why the movie struggled at the box office.
Anil Sharma On Vanvaas Emerging As A Box Office Flop
Anil Sharma recalled how his movie did not get enough screens because of Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 dominating the big screen during the same time. However, he has no regrets since he remembers getting a good response from the people who have already watched the film. He said, “Yes, it is disappointing, but the main issue is that the people have loved the film and they have also cried. It is one of my most precious and beautiful films. Everybody who has seen the movie, loved it but the timing was very wrong. Pushpa 2 was doing wonderfully those days and we didn’t get the screens. But of course, this movie is for satellite and OTT being a family film. Action movies are generally for the theatres.”
Not only this, but Anil Sharma is confident that the central emotion of the film will resonate with the audience and bring them closer to their families. He continued, “Now it’s coming on 8th March at Zee Cinema at 8 pm. I’m expecting every family is going to watch it and will love this movie. It will resonate with their emotions. Log bohot hasenge and bohot royenge. They will also call their parents if they’re living far off from them.”
