Failure of medium-to-big budget movies like Dulha Mil Gaya, Chance Pe Dance, Rann, Teen Patti and Pyaar Impossible, led to the losses. Bollywood box office earns Rs 200-250 crore a month, according to Hindi movie producers. Siddharth Roy, CEO of UTV Movies, said: “The first three months of 2010 have been bad because the content was not that great. Our Chance Pe Dance did not click either. We feel the cost at which movies are made and acquired at is too high. Also, supply of bankable artists is limited which pushes up the price each bankable actor demands.” Pritish Nandy, promoter of Pritish Nandy Communications, said: “There was not much of good content in the last three months. 3 Idiots, which was released during the latter part of last year, contributed to the box office collections in the first three months of this year, while My Name is Khan some what click eth audiences.”

Moreover, matches are held during prime time 6 to 9 pm or 9 to 12 am. So, a producer has to lose on audience,” Gada added. Pritish Nandy, promoter of Pritish Nandy Communications, said: “There was not much of good content in the last three months. 3 Idiots, which was released during the latter part of last year, contributed to the box office collections in the first three months of this year, while My Name is Khan somewhat clicked with audiences. We have so much loss due to IPL matches because of divisions of the audience.
