It is heartbreaking to hear Hrithik Roshan passing on the buck to director Siddharth Anand for the cheesy lines in Fighter.
The dialogues of the film are a crucial point of contention in the film’s mounting boxoffice stress. As the film plummets the blame game has started.

In an interview to Film Companion Hrithik has made a not-so-veiled accusation at the director Sidharth Anand for the cheap desh bhakti dialogues.
Says Hrithik, “Well, I would like to believe that my fans and my audience who come to watch my films are a bit more evolved and they would not need lines like this. So that’s a weight that I bear because as an actor, I don’t cross any lines. At the same time, I admire that Sid is a very headstrong filmmaker. It’s his conviction; sometimes you see somebody that convinced and it kind of breaks your heart to power down and say no. Which I don’t do. But of course, I also bear the weight of that because finally, it’s my face.”
Breaking down the above ‘Swami Hrithikanand’ pronouncement for the common man: he is basically saying he was against mouthing some of the dialogues but went along for director Sid Anand’s sake.
Box Office Collection till now
Fighter has seen a sharp drop in domestic box office numbers – “the dwindling numbers in India are a complete shocker,” per Mr Adarsh. However, the film is doing well abroad; USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand have posted strong weekday figures after an “excellent weekend” of business. “How does one explain this paradox,” Taran Adarsh asked in his post on the numbers.
