Updated on: 19 May, 2023 01:08 PM IST |Shweta Shah
Salman Khan`s Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan terribly tanked at the box office after collecting only 110 Crores throughout its theatrical run. If you`re thinking this is yet another Bollywood movie to cross the 100-crore mark, what you are missing is Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is one of those Salman Khan movies that must have collected the least of all as compared to his other movies. It not only failed to impress the moviegoers but also the trade experts and movie critics.

Speaking to a leading media portal, Taran said, “When you have films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan with Rs 300+ cr at the domestic box office, and this film falls short by leaps and bounds when it does Rs 100+ crore, that’s a complete downfall.”
He even highlighted the solution for Salman`s back-to-back flops. Taran said it is time the actor works with better directors and producers. He even went ahead to cite examples of how the actor`s one small cameo can make the audience lose their minds.
“Salman should realize his potential. When he drops his scarf in Pathaan, people go bonkers, there are whistles and claps all around, and not just on single screens, it happened in multiplexes too. So, just imagine the star power of this person. I am sure Salman knows that too,” said Adarsh.

Taran also pointed out that Salman can work with the biggest of the filmmakers and producers but the “egos of people are bigger.” He said, “People have elephantine egos, aadmi baad mein aata hai humaare yahan, ego pehle aati hai. (People have big ego).”
He further thinks that it is about time the Dabangg actor needs a `reality check` after delivering back-to-back Bollywood flops.
Taran said, “It’s high time they have a reality check and it’s high time they come out of their ivory towers. After Sultan, and Bajrangi Bhaijaan, you pick up films like Radhe, Race 3, and Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, I mean what? Kya hai ye? (What is this even) Your fans are bound to be dejected.”
