MUMBAI - Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor, who is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film "Mubarakan," says that because of box office figures, a film’s value gets diminished.

2017 hasn’t so far been much successful for Bollywood in terms of box office collections barring films like "Badrinath Ki Dulhania" and "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion". Arjun was asked about the reason for the slump at the song launch of "Mubarakan" on Friday, and he responded saying: “I feel that because of box office figures, a film’s value gets diminished. There are various films that have done well, like 'Hindi Medium.' So I hope at the end of this year, we will have more number of good films which will do good business”.

“We shouldn’t compare films with last year’s box office results. We should look at good things that are happening. 'Kaabil', 'Raees' and 'Half Girlfriend' also did good business and I feel hits and flops are part and parcel (of showbiz). The year still has six months left, so hopefully at the end of the year, we will have more successful films,” Arjun added.

"Mubarakan" is directed by Anees Bazmee, and is due to release on July 28.
