<span class=normal> Real life issues? Lets not make a headline<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>This is where the success of A Wednesday can well be considered as a case study because despite a deep rooted meaning to it, it never called itself as a film that highlighted the plight of a common man who is impacted the most due to constant fear of terror attacks. It was made as a thriller, pitched as a thriller and as a result, its box office outcome too was nothing less than a thriller. On a different theme, Anurag Basu too smartly pitched Life In A Metro as a musical dramatic tale rather than announcing that Through this film I wish to talk about the issues that middle class couples face in metropolitan India. Similar was the case with Karan Johar who could have got made headlines with Wake Up Sid by stating it as a film that explores the issue of what goes into the mind of modern day youth. However, he kept it fun and simple, something that worked with the audience. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>What didnt work earlier was Rann which despite its right intentions failed to fetch audience. In fact if there is one Ram Gopal Varma film in recent times that deserved to be a huge success then it was Rann. What was considered as a definite ace angle - i.e. a film that highlights the issue of media - turned against the film as it didnt seem enticing enough to audience. Now that was really a shame because at the core of it, the media angle was just peripheral and at best a marketing tool rather than the fact that Rann was basically a human drama. The same sentiment would apply for Madhur Bhandarkar too who seems to have taken a temporary break at the least from making issue based films after Jail.</span>
