Aamir Khan with NDTv – Revenue sharing business model in movies

I like to share gist and my views on that interview. Before getting into details, let me start with an intro of who the person is. ‘Aamir khan’ name speaks for itself in India.Last few years has been dream run for him with movies like Taare Zameen Par, 3 Idiots.He is  one of the few multi-talented people in movies with mix of intelligence and care for masses.He gave an interview regarding the revenue sharing business model that he generally follows in his movies.He talked about inner details of how movie market works from promotion to profit distribution.For his full interview, click here.

                Personally, I always felt that profit sharing is the best strategy to have in movie business. As I have grown up in India where Movies and cricket are the main sources of entertainment from childhood till now, I have been following both very closely.Setting cricket aside for another day, movies are entertainers as well as business to make profits in no time. So these profits should be reached to all levels of movie industry who kept time and sweat for the movie. In our usual movie world, movie will be sold to distributors before its release. Depending on the stars craze among local people, movie can be sold to huge amounts (can be even Rs. 100 crores). After the release,

Today, thought of blogging after a long time and doing first time in US after completion of masters.Its been 2 long years of struggle and joy in Syracuse making life an exciting roller coaster ride till now. Though ,I completed my masters and started the job hunt long back, getting a job for me in this post recession period has been like finding oasis in a desert .Like in desert, I saw mirages of phone interviews from some companies but no fruitful results yet. For making myself not to get disappointed and get lost in this pathetic situation, I am watching 1 movie each day. In that way, covering some decent Brad Pitt’s movies recently. Now its time to watch a  movie and call it for the day and till next time…goodbye

Birth of Universe

Hello,

Yesterday I saw a program in Discovery named "Birth of Discovery".It is fascinating but confusing as well to know about the universe and how it evolved.It all started with Big Bang explosion and a time line used to show the evolution of planets,stars and other extra terrestrial objects in the universe.After the Big bang,the universe is all about energy.Energy is flowing around like a super heated and frictionless liquid.According to Einstein's famous equation E=mc² ,mass and energy are inter convertible.Amazingly, after thousands of years,energy slowly started to form matter.This matter combined to form basic elements like Hydrogen and Helium.These elements are sources to form vast variety of elements that we see today.The temperatures fallen from billions of degrees into negative degrees and enabling the planets like Earth to have conditions suitable for life.Thus everything in and around of our planet i.e., water,air,you and me are all formed from the energy after Big bang.

It has been a long halt from last time when I blog.Last week,I went for a tour of 5 days of divinity.It is exciting and joyful but then tiring as well.After a 4 days of worship, went to Hyderabad to meet a schoolmate.On that day,I visited the International airport for the first time and it is interesting and wonderful one.When I return to home,I was tired and very sleepy.After having a good sleep ,I was rejuvenated and back to normal again.At night,I met a Syracuse college mate and had a nice chat about shopping.Thus finishing off the day with Kamal movie.

Today is not much of eventful day.It just ended in normal routine way.

6th July 2008 (Magician Vs Spartan in Wimbledon)

It has been much anticipated day with sporting events starting from evening.To start with,it is nice cool sleep which made me to wake up at 9:30a.m.I surfed along with my friend for accommodation in my university in housing site.The search continued for almost 2 hours.All the required information gathered and session suspended for the day.Afternoon started like bore but eventually got excited when my friend called me to play.In evening,I went to his house and had a nice game of cricket.After that ,I rushed to home so that not to miss the most anticipated match between Federer and Nadal in Wimbledon final.This match is very special for both players.For Federer,he will able to cross Bjorn Borg record of 5 straight wimbledon titles and to equal Renshaw's record.For Nadal,he will be the next to Borg who will win French and Wimbledon in the same year.The game started in a big way and had various nail biting moments which made it game of the tournament.However Nadal took hold of the game by taking first two sets by muscling great ground strokes for which even Federer don't have an answer.This is the first time when I saw Federer got angered and made me to realize "Even Federer is a human".After 2 sets,3rd set was interrupted by rain giving everyone a breather in crunch and fabulous encounter between Magician Federer and Spaniard Spartan Nadal.That's how I finished the day and fingers crossed for the much awaited result of final tomorrow.
