Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom Collection: Why is the film that defeated Salar, Donkey and Animal worldwide in terms of earnings being considered a failure?


This Christmas only Not only big films like Shah Rukh Khan’s Dinky and Prabhas’ Salaar were released. Another big film was released with them which has earned more than these two worldwide.

However, despite such excellent earnings, the film is being considered unsuccessful. We are talking about the Hollywood film ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’. 

This film was made with a budget equal to the total earnings of Salaar, Donkey and Animal
The total budget of this film was as much as what Donkey, Animal and Salaar together have earned worldwide. The total budget of the film was around Rs 200 million i.e. around Rs 1700 crore. At the same time, according to Sacknilk, Dunky has earned more than Rs 444 crore worldwide. Animal has touched around 900 crores and Salar has touched around 600 crores.

Now if we talk about Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, then according to Box Office Mojo, this film has earned Rs 334 million worldwide. That is, if we convert it into rupees then this earning reaches above Rs 2700 crores. If we add the total income of the three films Donkey, Animal and Salaar, then it is around Rs 1900 crore. Meaning, the total earnings of all three is equal to the budget of the second part of Aquaman.

Why is a business worth more than 2700 crores still being considered a failure?
Despite doing such a good business, it is being considered a failure. There are many reasons for this.

  • The first reason is that this is a film of DC’s extended universe DCEU. The same DCEU which DC had created in competition with its competitor Marvel’s Extended Universe MCU.
  • Where MCU projects like Avengers, Iron Man, and films like Spiderman, Antman had created a stir worldwide and It proved to be very beneficial for Marvel. Whereas most of the DCEU films like Batman vs Superman, Justice League and The Flash did not get the same love from the audience. In such a situation, there were many expectations from this film.
  • The first part of this film had earned 1 billion dollars worldwide. Therefore, it was expected from this film that the sinking DC Universe would get support from this film, but this hope is not visible from its earning of 334 million dollars.
  • Admittedly, the film did not exceed its budget. A lot of money has been taken out, but if the budget of such a superhero film is around 200 million, then it can be considered a hit only if it has earned 500-600 million dollars, but it has been a long time since the film was released. Therefore, now the film is doubtful even reaching that figure.
  • According to Forbes, this film has beaten recent releases DC films Blue Beetle, The Flash and Shazam The Fury of God in terms of initial earnings. Has performed worse than.
