Why not in India?

Why couldn't the movie have been set in India? Why couldn't the hero not have travelled from Kanyakumari to Delhi? Why must it be told from 9/11 perspective? Why not from Bombay shootings or Gujarat? Isn't there enough paranoia in India?

It seems there is a loophole in your mind. He was travelling America after 9/11. Story runs in Fleshback.

The real picture

The cost for MNIK is too high..100 cr for fox. Lets imagine it includes DVD and home video right. Still it need to have around 80 cr from DS ( India and Oversees combined). Seeing oversees market I think it can have 35 cr DS ( remember oversees number are gross and distributors get around 50% of it). So it need to get 45 cr DS ( i.e around 85 cr nett buisness) to recover it costs. For hit buisness all the numbers should be doubled in terms of distributor share. So if total business is of 85 cr, then only it could cover its loses

Movie full of cliches
by mango man on Feb 17, 2010 08:18 AM  | Hide replies

Everytime the hero is in a problem in a foreign land there is an Indian to help him out.

He loses his way in between a road, Indian lady helps him out.
He has to go and live in a motel and voila it is owned by an Indian.
He is standing in a crowd to meet the President and voila there is an Indian student making a documentry with a Camera and a mike..

There is more.
Hero gets on a bus and Indian couple give him food.

Wow such a cliche - ridden original story. It is amazing how mr. grown up director has come up with this brilliant masterful story.

he was also helped by a afrikan lady...and it's an Indian movie, so, what's the harm to show something good about indians?
when ppl show bad things about India and Indians like in Slumdog, you clap it loud, but when, they show something good about India and Indians, its cliche??..Moron!!!
