After the average performance of the multi-Deol starrer Apne at the box office, producer Rahul Sugandh has done a careful analysis of box office trends and come up with a surefire plan for guaranteed success in his next move: more Deols.

Plot of Box-office performance vs. number of Deols in movie

With the help of economist Stephen Levitt, he analyzed box office results to come up with the accompanying graph, which clearly indicates what is the best strategy for box office bonanza.

Hence, in addition to Dharmendra, Sunny and Bobby, his next movie will also feature Esha and Ahana Deol have already been signed. Addressing concerns that profitability of the movie would be affected by the increased cost of the expanded starcast, Sugandh responded that this actually results in lower costs. “Since Ahana is a newcomer, she does not command a very high price - she is willing to work in return for Planet-M gift coupons. And given the current state of Esha’s career, she is actually paying us for being in this movie.”

There are unconfirmed reports that Guddu Dhanoa has similar ideas for his next movie and is also negotiating with Hema Malini and Abhay Deol, for a record-breaking six-and-a-half Deols. These developments are being closely watched by industry analysts wondering whether this signals the start of a new trend. And by Randhir Kapoor who can blow these kids out of the water with a movie starring 23 Kapoors.
