2016 as a Box office year could really end up being one of the least successful years if its 100 crore grossers are counted. The year that has been single handedly led by Akshay Kumar’s three 100 crore grossers and a Salman Khan blockbuster, is going nowhere when compared to some of the previous years.
While 2016 is in its final quarter now, the chances of it suffering a humiliation are very high, here’s why-
In the last five year excluding 2016, last year was the worst since it could only deliver seven 100 crore grossers. As it turns, we only have four so far and chances of going past 2015’s figure look very dim.
There may be a number of reasons as to why the count of 100 crore grossers has fallen in the last two years.
While cinematic sensibilities occur to be the subjective findings around the data, the gloomy stardom of a lot of stars is also a major finding.
Let’s see the count that 2016 is at right now: (Last 5 years Data)
2012
Number of 100 crore grossers: 9
2013
Number of 100 crore grossers: 8
2014
Number of 100 crore grossers: 9
2015
Number of 100 crore grossers: 7
2016
Number of 100 crore grossers: 4 (so far)
The trends clearly indicate that the last couple of years especially 2016 has been a rather rough one for box office.
While some biggies were left to left to suffer at the ticket counters without enough content, surprise hits too remained under a limit and couldn’t make big.
