After ‘Kanguva’s’ Box Office Failure, TFAPA Calls for Ban on First Day First Show Movie Reviews by YouTube Channels in Theatres
TFAPA raises concerns over YouTube reviews post-FDFS, blaming exaggerated public opinions for hurting ‘Kanguva’s’ box office performance.
Amid the mixed reactions to Kanguva, the Tamil Film Active Producers Association (TFAPA) has raised concerns about the impact of YouTube reviews recorded outside theatres, particularly after First Day First Show (FDFS) screenings. TFAPA has argued that these immediate public reviews are affecting box office performance, even though they did not attribute the film’s struggles to its quality. The association accused YouTubers of using exaggerated headlines to grab attention and mislead audiences. Suriya’s Kanguva, which released in theatres on November 14, earned only INR 89 crore globally in its opening week. TFAPA has called for an end to these public reviews to protect the film industry and its commercial interests. ‘Kanguva’ Box Office Verdict – Hit or Flop: Can Suriya’s Big-Budget Movie Recover From Negative Reviews and Tepid Audience Response?
