Bollywood used to be known for making films longer than three hours, such as the classics Mohabbatein, Lagaan, Swades, Jodha Akbar, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Sangam, and Mughal-E-Azam.
But audiences’ attention spans have shrunk recently, which makes three-hour movies less popular. Additionally, theaters often prioritize shorter films over longer ones, which has an impact on the financial success of the former.
Animal, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s most recent release, bucked this trend. Animal broke the trend of shorter films predominating in the industry by becoming a huge hit despite being an A-rated picture that ran for three hours and twenty-one minutes. The success of Vanga has led to a resurgence of longer Bollywood films.
In the upcoming weeks, Hrithik Roshan’s film Fighter is expected to be released. It is anticipated that the film will run for three hours and ten minutes, according to reports.
Following the commercial success of War and Pathaan, Siddharth Anand directed the highly anticipated film Fighter, which stars Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor among other celebrities. With a runtime longer than three hours, Fighter is scheduled for release on January 25, which is also Republic Day. It is anticipated to be one of the year’s first major releases.
Thus, Sandeep Reddy Vanga starts a trend that Bollywood quickly adopts.
