After the release of “Great Grand Masti”, you already have the reviews which gave you hundred reasons not to head to the movie theaters. But here is one another reason for “Great Grand Masti” becomes a total failure at the box office.
Although, three weeks back, Great Grand Masti seemed like a successful film with catchy songs and promos. But, two weeks before it’s grand release, like ‘Udta Punjab’, this film too, leaked online and the piracy murdered the film totally.
Urvashi Rautela, the leading actress of the film broke down in tears before the media saying,
“am a 22 year old young girl who’s trying to find a footing in the industry. When Udta Punjab was leaked online, I felt bad for the team. But never did I think that the same will happen to my film as well. There were people messaging me on social media saying they liked my performance because they had watched the film already before it could release in theatres. I didn’t know whether I should have smiled or cried.”
She also explained further,
“We made a film and it was completely murdered by the piracy. I hope something like this doesn’t happen to anyone else anymore. I hope people who have done this to our film get proper punishment.”
The second edition, “Grand Masti” of its genre, is the only film which had entered the Rs. 100 crore club. They expected the same with the third edition as well. But, due the untimely leak of the film online, this adult comedy has only gathered Rs. 2-3 crore on its opening day.
