While box office numbers for the Akshay Kumar starer “Skyforce” are of controversy, similar is the criticism around reviews. Corporate booking, or buying blocks of tickets for a movie by companies estimating the occupancy to the theater, becomes a charge at par with complaints from obscure viewers who overrate the movie. Footage showing an empty theater with high numbers of bookings were also doing rounds on the net. Critics and the audience point out that the week screenplay, no effort from Akshay Kumar’s perspective, and a possible marketing manipulation. This strategy, if it is really to hide the flaws in the film, raises questions regarding the authenticity of the box office success statistics and the changing contours of Bollywood.
