- Soon after cinemas reopened post the lockdown, box-office collections became a hot topic in the industry.
- But the actor likes to stay detached from the number game.
Tabu is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films, alongside Telugu and Tamil language films.
As soon as the theatres reopened after the lockdown, box-office numbers became a big deal in the business world. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, which stars Tabu, is still one of the highest-grossing movies of 2022. This is true even though many big-budget movies have had trouble making money. But the actor doesn’t want to be involved in the number game.
She says, “I don’t really think about it. I think actors have the luxury to not stress about it, because humara paisa nahin laga hota hai film mein. Bas humara kaam achha hona chahiye and the film should be good. It’s the producers who are more worried about box-office numbers. But, it definitely feels nice when your film does well.”
“When a film is successful, everybody benefits from it in some way or another. But if it doesn’t do well, I am not sure how much damage it does to you,” she explains, “You don’t see it (the impact a project’s success or failure has) immediately; It’s over a period of time. Mujhe nahin lagta ki ek film flop hote hi actor ka sab khatam ho jaata hai. People don’t stop getting work just because one film didn’t do well.”
