Opinion: Why have films for children stop making?

It would not be wrong to call cinema the biggest medium of entertainment. Along with entertainment, it also gives us a chance to learn a lot. Some good messages are hidden in films, which inspire us and some to do good. Many such films are also made, which give us enthusiasm. For years, Bollywood has been making love stories, action, horror, suspense, biopic as well as children based, but for the last 7 years, films have been stopped for children. Why did this happen? Let’s try to understand this.

The last film based on children ‘Hichki’ was released in theaters in the year 2018 i.e. Kovid’s epidemic. The film proved to be successful at the box office. Made in 20 crores, this film had earned a total of 215 crores worldwide at the box office, that is, it was 10 times more profit than its budget. Rani Mukherjee was seen playing the lead role in the film.

By the way, ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ released in 2003, ‘Taare Zameen Par’ released in 2007, ‘Bhootnath’ released in 2008, ‘I am Kalam’ released in 2010, ‘Stanley Ka Dabba’ released in 2011, released in 2011, ‘Chiller Party’ released in 2011, ‘Hawa Hawaii’ released in 2014, ‘Nil Bate Sannata’ and ‘Dhanak’ released in 2015, sometimes for the producers There was no loss. The magic of all these children based on children was also seen at the box office. So when such films were earning profits, why did films stop making for children? The answer is ‘trend’. I think the film world is now running according to the trend, but where does this trend come from?

This trend is made from the most successful films at the box office or by the discussion of social media. As I told you that the last film made on children was released in the year 2018. Then in 2019, after the Kovid epidemic stopped, films stopped making, all theaters were locked. Then from 2021-22, when the situation gradually started becoming normal, the makers started making films again, but after Kovid, South’s films were covered at the box office, that is, Bollywood films stopped in front of Pan India films, For example, RRR, KGF 2, Pushpa 2. These South films full of action were covered at the Indian box office, inspired by this, such films also started making in Bollywood, Like- Pathan, young, animal…

Now the impact of Bollywood films is again visible at the box office. After cruel action films, the trend of horror-comedy and comedy films began, which was successful at the box office, such as Munjya, Stree. Emerged as Due to lack of censorship, the directors and makers openly started making web series and films for OTT. Now among all these things, films made for children were lost somewhere. For the last 7 years, no such film has been released in theaters, which are based on children.

Every Bollywood director and maker needs to note that so far many such films have been made based on children, which are liked by children as well as parents and if we look at the box office figures, then the makers from it There is no harm, but only benefited. Therefore, makers should keep making films for children.
