Bade Miyan Chote Miyan was made with a huge amount of money but didn't do well with critics or at the box office. It stars Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Manushi Chhillar, Alaya F, Sonakshi Sinha, and Ronit Roy. Alaya F, in a recent interview, mentioned that the movie not doing well didn't bother her because it helped her reach a new audience through the big action-packed entertainer.
Alaya F opens up on BMCM's underwhelming performance
In a chat with News18 Showsha, Alaya F discussed the box office disappointment of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, which fell short of expectations despite its large budget. She expressed, “It didn’t bother me because I feel that I got a lot from the film. I managed to reach a new audience who perhaps didn’t know of me. When you’re making a film of that scale and an action masala one at that, the reviews aren’t going to be all about critical acclaim.”
Alaya said that for a movie like this, the main review will always come from the audience. While it received a mixed reaction from viewers, she believes everyone has their own preferences and she can’t dictate what they should or shouldn’t watch.
Preferring not to dwell on negativity, the 26-year-old says that she's focusing on the positive side of things. She mentions being content that the film gave her visibility. She jokingly says, "Let people send me some hate and get angry. That also works."
Alaya F's work front
In her upcoming project, Alaya F will star alongside Rajkummar Rao in Srikanth. The movie is a biopic based on the life of Srikanth Bolla, an Indian industrialist who overcame visual impairment and founded Bollant Industries. Directed by Tushar Hiranandani, Srikanth is set to hit theaters on May 10th.
