There are two kinds of success, one where a genuinely good film is a success, and that makes everyone associated with the movie a hot property. Like Harish Shankar was, post-Gabbar Singh.

Then there is another kind of success where, the timing of the release and hero’s pull, take the movie to a higher level than it actually should.
With the success of the second kind, despite the happy faces the team puts for outer world internally everyone knows the close escape the film in question just had. It means the eagerness of a top hero to work is less.
Now, DJ is a success. There is no doubt about that. The director slams critics and points at the collection and states it is creating Non-Baahubali records, but unfortunately, he can’t say with confidence if the movie will be a Non-Baahubali record. If DJ is that good why should it stop at 4, 5, or 6th position? Why not go all the way and be a Non-Baahubali record grosser? And once again, who’s going to be that top star that would be willing to give him dates immediately?
