Bruce Lee has seen an alarming drop on second day indicating that it will go down as one of the biggest failures in recent times.
Below par collections on second day added to the worries of third parties and exhibitors that have invested a lot in this film with the recent boom in Tollywood’s market.
Once again it is Ram Charan’s choice of script is to be blamed for this failure. It is Megastar Chiranjeevi who approves the scripts for Ram Charan films before the young hero gives a nod.
Although Chiranjeevi has great judgment over commercially viable scripts Charan cannot continue to play it safe in these days where the film lovers are looking for variety.
Racha, Nayak and Yevadu were commercially successful but they have branded Ram Charan as a hero who doesn’t offer any novelty.
Govindudu Andarivadele was different from his previous films but that had a stale script. Now Bruce Lee is another outdated script that has age old brother, sister sentiment as the main theme.
Scenes like hero waiting outside someone’s house for hours to get the attention seem absolutely ridiculous and dated to this generation’s audience. Movie lovers are ready to watch films like Rudrama Devi irrespective of the public talk just because of variety.
Mahesh Babu and Allu Arjun don’t involve their fathers in selecting scripts. For example Aravind didn’t like the idea of Allu Arjun doing a character like Arya. But Bunny believed in Sukumar’s script that has earned him identity.
He took risks of doing movies like Arya 2 and Vedam that elevated him as an actor. Charan should stop running after safe bet subjects and take some risks as soon as possible.
It is better to try some variety and fail rather doing a dated movie and fail, right?
