Bollywood’s A-certificate films rake in moolah

“Delhi Belly” has shocked quite a few with its toilet and sex scenes and generous use of expletives, but the A-certified film got a bumper response. With “Haunted” and “Murder 2″ also raking in the moolah, these movies have shown how to make money despite having a restricted audience.
“The reason we are seeing A-movies becoming hits is because people are experimenting a lot with the subject. Gone are the days of happy family with Ram Rajya-type subjects. Just to get out of the family drama zone, Bollywood is experimenting with subjects, language and characters,” director Rahul Dholakia told IANS.
“Delhi Belly”, an adult comedy produced by Aamir Khan, has broken the dry spell at the box office by earning Rs.15.65 crore on its first two days and Mohit Suri’s crime thriller “Murder 2″ earned Rs.34.9 crore net in the first week.
“Full credit should be given to two people for this change in Bollywood – one is Sharmila Tagore and the second is Vinayak Azad. They are the ones who made a revolutionary change in cinema in the last five years. I love the way Bollywood movies are made nowadays,” he said.
