Renowned Bollywood filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, known for his impeccable track record at the box office, is facing scrutiny regarding the enduring appeal of his films. Despite consistent commercial success, questions arise about whether his works, such as “3 Idiots” and “Sanju,” maintain their once-perceived status as timeless classics.
Box Office Triumphs vs. Cinematic Quality
Hirani boasts a flawless box office record, with every film of his achieving success. However, the correlation between financial success and the enduring quality of a film remains debatable. It prompts a closer look at whether Hirani’s 100 percent hit rate truly reflects the timeless nature of his cinematic creations.
Evolution of Hirani’s Filmmaking Style
Commencing his directorial journey in 2003 with “Munna Bhai MBBS,” Hirani swiftly built a successful franchise with “Lage Raho Munna Bhai” and went on to helm iconic films like “3 Idiots,” “PK,” and “Sanju.” Over the two decades of his career, Hirani has established a distinctive style characterized by humor in emotional situations, life lessons delivered in a unique manner, and mass-appealing jokes reminiscent of shows like Kapil Sharma’s.
The Challenge of Evolving Style
While Hirani’s films have consistently resonated with audiences, critics question the evolution of his filmmaking style. The recurring comedic elements and familiar narrative structures raise concerns about the freshness and longevity of his cinematic contributions.
As Rajkumar Hirani’s latest film, “Dunki,” hits theaters, the critical examination of his cinematic legacy intensifies. While his films undeniably succeed at the box office, the debate lingers on whether they still possess the timeless quality that defines evergreen classics in the world of cinema.
