3 key money lessons investors can learn from the movies which will hit the big screen in 2024
Dunki and Salaar on the big screen, I was scouring the Net to see what was in store for us in this new year. The range is mind boggling. If Hollywood is banking on sequels of Despicable Me 4 (get ready to spend money for your kids as well as the child inside you on some superb merchandise!) and Kung Fu Panda 4 (that Panda is so adorable!), then Bollywood is going to offer you sequels of movies you have loved no matter who was wearing that police officer’s uniform.
You guessed it! We are going to watch the Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn magic onscreen again with Singham Again. Not to be left behind, there are sequels in the Yash Raj Spy Universe titled Tiger VS Pathan. Indian audiences fill theatres to watch men in uniform beat, shoot and kill ‘enemies’ and this year you will see your favourite Hrithik Roshan and the woman who inspires a thousand sighs - Deepika Padukone - wear uniform in Fighter.
Yodha will have Sidharth Malhotra strut his stuff in uniform too. I’m not about to quibble about how every mara-mari film has a formula everyone can see a ile away. Why should I complain about yet another Spiderman universe film that is going to show up on the big screen? I would love to see a spinoff called Madame Webb the day it is released! Plus, Joaquin Phoenix plays his iconic Joker again in ‘Joker: Folie a Deux’.
Because I want you - the smart investor - to understand why Hollywood as well as Bollywood continues to make sequels. The answer is simple: When something works, why not have more of it? The sequels stick to the formula the original film had and tell a new story. Take Planet of the Apes as an example.
