Fighter: Hrithik Roshan starrer declared a hit by Bollywood trade; Siddharth Anand says 'Love wins'

After a good performance in the third weekend at the box office, Fighter is slowly inching towards the Rs 350 crores mark. The movie was made on a budget of a little over Rs 250 crores. Fighter was a joint production of Viacom18 Pictures and Marflix. Fighter was expected to be a huge blockbuster at the ticket windows. The teaser and trailer had left quite an impact. However, the box office results did not match the hype. Many people started writing off the film despite it doing good numbers. Siddharth Anand did not hesitate from expressing his disappointment on the fact that people were being harsh towards the life.

WAR 2 that had the combo of Hrithik Roshan and Siddharth Anand made Rs 500 crores plus worldwide, while Bang Bang (2017) was also in the Rs 300 crores plus league. This is one combo that never fails to perform at the box office. Netizens showered love on Siddharth Anand and the whole team of the adrenaline-raising movie.

May be now you can shift your focus on India China conflict as Pakistan is now almost like a cardboard target for India so in cinematic sense not a very strong villain. ?
