A movie for the ‘mass audience’

BOLLYWOOD actor John Abraham, who is playing a triple role for the first time in his career in Satyameva Jayate 2, says the film has been specifically made for the mass audience who go to the theatres and enjoy the “out-andout commercial film”.

The film is a sequel and the first instalment was released in 2018.

According to the actor, the second part was made purely after receiving approval from the audience that translated at the box office.

“Satyameva Jayate 2 is made for the mass audience and not for a niche one. People who buy tickets to go to the theatres, especially the audience of single-screen theatres in a small town, are not bothered about the reviews and critical explanation. They want entertainment.

“For us actors and producers that is the most important factor. We made this film clearly for the mass audience who came to watch Satyameva Jayate.”

Abraham added: “Before the release, therefore, we as makers of the film are more concerned about the number of screens, first-day collections and everything to do with the business of the film.

“Post-pandemic, theatrical release and bringing people back to the theatres is very important to boost the business.” |
