The trailer of a movie hardly affects the opening of a film at the box office. Even a viral trailer which received millions of likes and views is unable to drag audiences to the multiplex.
However, the trailer of most films gets more likes than dislikes, ie the number of likes is more than those who dislike, but in Mahesh Bhatt's film Sadak 2, the case seems to be the opposite.
When the report was being filed, the trailer of Sadak 2 has been viewed by more than 25 million people. 3 lakh 75 thousand people have liked it, but the number of those who dislike has crossed 70 lakh.
This clearly shows that those who dislike have nothing to do with the film or its content. They have resentment towards the actors associated with the film.
The film is directed by Mahesh Bhatt while Sanjay Dutt, Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Pooja Bhatt are in the lead roles. There is a grudge in the mind of the Bhatt family ever since their name is being associated with SSR death case. Besides, another big reason is nepotism.
After the suicide of Sushant Singh Rajput, people have turned against nepotism in Bollywood. He believes that Sushant also did not flourish completely in Bollywood due to the monopoly of Lobby.
Many members of the Mahesh Bhatt family are in Bollywood and because of this, Viewers are channelizing their anger on the trailer with a dislike button.
However, the dislike of the people will not affect the performance of the film because the film is not releasing in theaters.
The film has been sold with profits to the OTT platform. The film can be seen on Disney Plus Hotstar starting August 28. Yes, this anger of the people will definitely alert other producers and its effect will be seen in the future.
