The Overlooked Masterpiece: Javed Akhtar Questions 'Superboys of Malegaon' Box Office Performance

Veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar has reacted with shock at the disappointing box office show of Superboys of Malegaon, terming it the "best Hindi film in the last 15 years." The movie, which received critical acclaim, has failed to draw crowds and has managed only ₹3.25 crore in eight days. Reema Kagti directs the movie, a heartwarming story of friendship and filmmaking. Akhtar's recommendation draws attention to the film's aesthetic value, pitting it against its box office reception. The film will shortly be out on Amazon Prime, where it might gain a wider following.
