New Trend: Lengthy Durations Ruling The Roost!

Published by

Gone are the days when films adhered to a standard duration of around 2 hours 30 minutes or 2 hours 40 minutes. The emergence of films like “Baby,” which garnered acclaim despite its extended runtime, seems to have paved the way for a series of upcoming releases with lengthier durations.

Several notable films have embraced this trend and are slated for release with durations that surpass the traditional norms:

  1. “King Of Kotha” – 2 hours 56 minutes – August 24th
  2. “Kushi” – 2 hours 45 minutes – Releasing on September 1st
  3. “Jawaan” – 2 hours 50 minutes – Releasing on September 7th
  4. “Salaar” – More than 3 hours – Releasing on September 28th

While these extended runtimes might initially seem like a departure from the norm, they allow filmmakers to delve deeper into their narratives.

The success of these films will undoubtedly serve as a litmus test for this evolving trend. Suppose they resonate with viewers and achieve success at the box office. In that case, it will send a clear message that the audience’s preferences are changing, and they are more than willing to invest their time in narratives that demand a lengthier presentation.
