Blockbusters are decided on the budget of the production and the total gross ( amount got after paying all commissions and taxes) got by Producer. Though there are hits in Tamil- Kannada- Malayalam that gave profits, they cannot be termed blockbusters as the percentage of the profit in ratio to the cost does not qualify for it.
As Bollywood films need a global – pan- Indian audience, no big Star films with exception of Salman Khan was released. The Navratri puja – Diwali is expected to bring back the sparkle to Bollywood.
