For the past few decades, we have been watching films that have two heroes or two noted actors in key roles. These types of films have been receiving good responses from the audience also.
Celebrated Bollywood Analyst cum Business Transformation Expert Hirav Shah says, “Multi-starrer movies have always been a delight to the audience right from the beginning of the cinemas till date. Blockbuster hits like Sholay, Chupke Chupke and Amar Akbar Anthony, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Raajneeti, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, and Dil Dhadakne Do are the results of the successful execution of multi-starrer Bollywood movies work at the Box Office.”
Shah adds, “Making a double hero film is quite tricky as the script should not only be captivating but should also have all the actors in the movie have an equal amount of screen time. While not each star could have punchlines, the maker can put in efforts to make each of his characters count and significant in the film.”
Now, we bring you the list of upcoming big-budget movies that have double heroes.
