Hrithik Roshan discusses box office dynamics
Reflecting on the audience’s love, box office numbers and the dynamics of success and failure in the film industry, Hrithik Roshan recently discussed these aspects in an interview with Pinkvilla.

Sharing a perspective on the relationship between box office success and personal satisfaction, Hrithik gave an example and said that a movie grossing Rs 300 crore wouldn’t fulfil him if his performance wasn’t up to the mark. He asserted that both commercial success and artistic fulfilment are significant with no clear preference between the two.

But my work was appreciated so much that it gave me strength. It validated me. It encouraged me. And especially because it didn’t do well, it says even more. I kind of feel stronger.”
For Hrithik, personal growth takes precedence over box office collections as he values audience appreciation for his craft irrespective of financial outcomes.
While Fighter experienced a slow start on its first Monday, there is anticipation that it might regain momentum over the weekend.
