What eventually counts is whether your film was successful at the box-office or not, or more so if the film has made its money, and 'Race 3' did that.

Daisy Shah

There's only one barometer for the commercial success of a film and that's the box office. The obsession with box office doesn't annoy me. It's the main part of the business, if you get irritated with the main part then you're in trouble.

Akshaye Khanna

If the film succeeds at the box office it is a commercial film. Otherwise it isn't.

Thiagarajan Kumararaja

I am a commercial artist because I paint to earn a living. We who earn money from what we produce are all commercial artists.

Jack White

Box office success has never meant anything. I couldn't get a film made if I paid for it myself. So I'm not 'box office' and never have been, and that's never entered into my kind of mind set.

Jessica Lange

Everyone thinks that Fight Club is a very important and successful film, but it was a massive box-office failure. Massive. It was a big flop by any commercial-release standard. And it's been a huge hit on DVD. Everything that movie has become has been on DVD. So you can't stake your sense of creative success on this whole box-office-performance matrix, because if you do, you're going to be disappointed most of the time.

Edward Norton

What is a commercial film? I think every film is commercial, as every film makes money.

Ayushmann Khurrana

The effort always remains that my new film outdoes my last in terms of performance and gets better box office success. Box office is the sole reason why I do films.

Emraan Hashmi

To me, the box-office is basically the cost of film. If your film costs so much and your box-office is so much and a bit more, you are okay.

Sunny Deol

I gladly, I voluntarily gave up the kind of commercial film career I had going as soon as I had enough money to finance my own films. I didn't make that money necessarily from the film business, but I eventually made a lot of money and that's what I do. Of course, I consider myself unbelievably fortunate, and I'm pretty content with my life.

Francis Ford Coppola

'Election' made zero money at the box office, but it started my career.

Chris Klein

Election' made zero money at the box office, but it started my career.

Chris Klein

The film is not a success until it makes money. It's only good when there's a dollar figure attached to the box office.

John Cusack

My first film was a super-hit. It made the producer earn a lot of money and gave me a lot of fame. The funny part is that I acted in Tum Bin' as a project for which I was paid a stipend and not the money that comes to the star of a very popular film.

Priyanshu Chatterjee

I directed 'Death in the Gunj' which released in 2017. It got very good reviews and a few awards but did not do well at the box-office. But I'm not bothered. I made the film that I wanted to make. It was not a film for everyone.
