Siddharth Anand-directed aerial-action thriller film Fighter might have crossed the Rs 200-crore mark in India, grossing more than Rs 300 crore globally. But it seems like the film didn’t click with the larger section of the audience. Having carried a lot of expectations, viewers felt that the film did not live up to the expectations, thus explaining the downward spiral of the film in its third week now. Featuring actors like Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor in the lead roles, Fighter shows them in the role of Indian Air Force officers, drawing inspiration from the true story of historic events that took place in 2019.

Fighter, which stars Deepika Padukone, Hrithik Roshan, and Anil Kapoor, has minted decent numbers at the box-office but the expectations post the historic success of War and Pathaan have not been met and amid this, the director Siddharh Anand has something to say.

While speaking to Galata Plus, he defended the collections by saying that 90% of our country’s population hasn’t flown in planes or been to the airport, so we can’t expect them to know what’s happening in the air.

Days after repetitive comparisons between Fighterand the Hollywood film, director Siddharth Anand recently broke his silence on the same, calling it nothing but “social media chatter” which only gains a lot of negativity.

We need to watch our films with more respect’

This is not the first time that the director, who also has films like War and Pathaan to his credit has spoken about the comparisons with Top Gun films.
