Have you ever thought that almost every big film in India (India) Friday (Friday film release) Why is it released? Is this just the beginning of the weekend, or is there any other deep reason behind it? Many people on social media associate it with Islamic connection because Friday is a special day for Muslims. But the reality is that it is deeply related to Hinduism and Indian astrology.
Friday’s importance in Hinduism
Friday is named after the planet ‘Venus’, which is a symbol of humility, art, beauty and opulence in Hinduism. These are the qualities that are also associated with films, art, beauty, entertainment and emotional engagement.
According to the Puranas, Shukracharya, the guru of the demons, are considered to be the suzerain of the planet Venus. Friday is also considered to be the day of Lakshmi Mata. Lakshmi Devi is the goddess of wealth, opulence and splendor. The film industry is an area where wealth, beauty, popularity and art are harmonized, that is, the full influence of Venus.
Friday is auspicious, success is found in works!
According to astrology, by doing any auspicious work on Friday, there is more chances of success in it. In the Navagrahas, Venus is considered to be the planet of art and film world. The work that starts on Friday is fruitful and successful for a long time, which is why manufacturers choose this day for release.
What does box office data say?
More than 80 percent of hit films were released on Friday itself. Not many examples of this have been seen, such as:
- Dilwale dulhania le jayenge, release date: 20 October 1995 (Friday)
- 3 idiots, 25 December 2009 (Friday)
- Pathaan, RRR, Gadar 2, all superhit films were released on Friday.
Marketing and theaters strategy
Weekend starts from Friday. Cinema owners get 3 days time to see the trend of moving the film. Word-of-mouth propaganda is also strengthened on Monday.
Truth of Muslim engagement
Even though Friday is a day of Namaz-e-Juma for the Muslim community, it is wrong to add the film release. Films in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Gulf countries are often released on Thursday or Saturday as well. It can be said that the selection of Friday in India is a commercial, astrological and cultural decision.
The release of films on Friday is not just a marketing strategy, but a mixed result of Hinduism, Indian astrology and cultural beliefs. Films released on Friday come with humility, art, and splendor, which is why this day is considered the most auspicious for cinema. That is, this decision is not a religious but a coincidence of culture-astrology and market is a coincidence.
