So far, the year 2017 has not been so fortunate for Bollywood as many big time releases were labeled as a huge disappointment while some content-oriented films made it big at the box office. From the looks of it, the audience is going for a better view of cinema and has opted for films that are relevant rather than illogical films with masala numbers just to get the attention. Have a little faith as the year still has its final quarter and some great films on your way to get excited about!
