Ya and that too at the age when most ppl retire. Clearing a debt of over a 100 crore when you are in 60's is not a joke.
Shut the...Bbuddah will rock the BO

you got that right Tejas...WAS pro AB...
As for this article... keeps on harping about how ab should have done
this and that like it knows whats best for Bachchan. Unlike Rajnikant,
AB had a huge debt to pay and i will say this a countless time... I
admire the AB who did all the crap to pay of his debt than be a coward
and declare bankruptcy! Yeah it hit him hard in terms of his image and
box office standing... but atleast AB can look at himself in the mirror
and say "I did the right thing"!!!!
Whatever will happen to BHTB..... lets just enjoy the ride...good or
bad!

I thought IBOS was pro AB. Then why so many negative comments on the
box office fate of BHTB.

ok, sure there is some merit to this but I mostly disagree. If the
movie is good, it will do well.
why does he come back to Mumbai?
how does he solve whatever he is up to?
how do the other characters fare?
above all, is Bachchan kickass through out? no loose ends.
just like AB is gathering input from us on the marketing etc, it would
have been even better had he shown some of us the preview or shared the
content/story etc.

Q: So what will be the box office fate of Amitabh's Buddah Hoga Tera
Baap?
A: After news of recent Rajnikanth successes down south, this type of
film had/has great potential for Bachchan. Had this movie released 10
years ago after original KBC instead of a movie like Mohabbatein, it
would have taken probably a toplevel opening (ie in today's parlance a
Rs. 90-100 crore week). Because it harkens to an era when Amitabh
actually used to be a legitimate #1 crowd pulling superstar at the box
office on a regular basis. Today there are more questions. Over the last
decade, Amitabh, unlike Rajnikanth, accepted just about anything with
movies like K3G, KANK not to mention countless special appearance and
character roles which went against continuity of his 'Vijay' era
symbolism, which was the basis for his stardom. Now they're going back
to it, but an entire generation has been skipped who simply isn't aware
of Bachchan's peak days (barring a whiff in Bunty/Babli briefly in
2005). Most of the ticket buying audience (18-35) crowd never ever even
saw Agneepath or the Hum queues in theaters let alone Deewar or
Natwarlal, which is what you want if you want a hit film out of this. In
terms of prerelease content for this film, after the original promo of
BHTB which was well received, the new song promos with Raveena Tandon as
well as 'beep' promos are once again spiraling the film down and coming
across as awkwardly forced and haphazardly put together, more like the
late 90s flop Bachchan films instead. Section of public which may have
been intrigued initially doesn't know what they're going to get here,
Nishabd or Bunty&Babli, Lal Badshah or Aakhree Raasta . That said, at
10 crores the budget is miniscule and it will take a bigger opening than
Amitabh Bachchan's last few films in India.
