Eros International, India’s largest and most controversial film distributor, says that its digital revenues now outstrip conventional theatrical and syndication revenues. Its Eros Now streaming platform claims 18.8 million paying subscribers.
The New York-listed company reported annual results that were distorted by multiple adjustments to presentation. Reported revenues in the year to end of March 2019 edged ahead by 3% to $270 million.
Operating profits were halved at $27.8 million, but adjusted earnings jumped from $83 million to $104 million. And the company took a huge, non-cash, impairment loss of $423 million. The company said that the write-down reflected a reduction in its market capitalization and a valuation of its film rights. But on a conference call following the release of data, chairman Kishore Lulla said that the charge could be reversed if the market capitalization increases again.
Weighing heavily on the stock price – and hence the market capitalization –have been further accusations by short sellers this...

It is a known fact that for Ranveer Singh, there are two women who catch his attention in Bajirao Mastani – Deepika Padukone as Mastani and Priyanka Chopra as Kashibai. While his character Bajirao gets married to both, there is one more woman who vies for his attention.
Well, she is 55 year old veteran actress Tanvi Azmi, who plays Ranveer’s mother in the film.
“Yes, she has a powerful role in the film,” informs our source, “she plays the character of Radhabai, who was instrumental in Bajirao’s growth as a warrior. From a child who was disheartened with his defeats during practice to a mighty powerful warrior who never lost one of his 40 odd battles in the 1700s, Bajirao had a lot to credit his mother for his meteoric rise. This is where Radhabhai played a crucial part.”
No wonder, Sanjay Leela Bhansali needed a powerful actress to enact this part.

A huge deal seems to be cooking up between Shah Rukh Khan and Eros Entertainment. And the deal could sway the way the competition between Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani and Shah Rukh Khan-Rohit Shetty's Dilwale goes this Christmas when the two release simultaneously on December 18. According to a well-placed source in the Us, the meeting took place last month. Says the source. "Kishore Lulla flew down to Los Angeles for the meeting with Shah Rukh Khan to discuss if Eros Entertainment could come on board for Dilwale, produced by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies and Rohit Shetty.

Since Eros is the co-producer of Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani, a collaboration with Shah Rukh over Dilwale could sort out the issue of the simultaneously release date for the two films."

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, a Spanish-set road movie, is the latest example of the Indian film industry's new confidence and success
It took more than 16 tonnes of tomatoes to turn the coming-of-age film, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, into the latest international cinema hit from Bollywood. The feelgood road movie's subsequent huge success, both inside and outside India, is being taken as evidence that the country's cinema is ready for global lift-off.
Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (Won't Get Life Back Again) follows three young friends on a raucous trip through Spain. The film has grossed more than $3.8m internationally, the best figures for an Indian release this year. It has also led the charge in a record-breaking domestic summer at the box-office.
The tomatoes were used by the film's director, Zoya Akhtar, to recreate the chaos of the La Tomatina festival in the small Valencian town of Buñol. Such attention to...

LONDON -- Indian film production and distribution group Eros International posted a 28% rise in net profit to $39 million for fiscal 2008, attributing growth to expansion in domestic Indian boxoffice receipts as well as strong television syndication sales.
Profit growth at Eros, which listed on London's Alternative Investment Market in 2006, came with a 70% increase in group revenue to $113 million for the 12 months to the end of March 2008.
Chairman and CEO Kishore Lulla said Eros' core market remained the Indian subcontinent and the South Indian diaspora overseas and would not follow such ventures as Anil Ambani's Reliance Big Entertainment into investing directly in Hollywood production.
"Our take is somewhat different, that the U.S. market has plateaued. We are sitting on a market that is growing at 22% a year, so our focus is to consolidate the Indian market rather than invest in Hollywood," he said.
Lulla said that emerging markets had proved significant drivers for growth across film and television.
