Chapter 25: Breaking Through Barriers
After the news of Suraj's contribution to Major Rathore's family spread, the tide began to turn. Bloody Commando wasn't just gaining attention—it was becoming a symbol of respect and solidarity. Suraj's selfless gesture resonated deeply with people, igniting a surge of support he hadn't anticipated. It wasn't long before media outlets took note, hailing Suraj as a filmmaker with heart and conviction, someone who was willing to honor Bharat's heroes with more than just words.
A few days later, Suraj sat in his office, scrolling through the growing number of messages and comments flooding the Mythic Productions StarGram account. Some of the comments made him pause:
"@DeshBhakt92: Finally, a filmmaker who actually cares! Respect to you, Suraj. You just gained a fan for life."
"@ProudBharati: Giving back to the army is a huge gesture. More power to Mythic Productions!"
"@CinemaLover2024: Can't wait to see Bloody Commando! Watching it this weekend with my family in honor of Major Rathore."
"@RealSoldier65: As a retired army officer, this means more than you can imagine. Thank you, Suraj, for standing by us."
The positive responses energized Suraj, but he knew that for Bloody Commando to succeed at the level he envisioned, it needed a broader reach. Although 20 crore in six days was promising, it was clear that the film could do much better with wider distribution. But securing more theaters in the highly competitive market remained a challenge. Even though Veer Yodha had underperformed, its promotional juggernaut and Rajesh Mehta's influence were still monopolizing screens in key locations.
Determined not to let this opportunity slip by, Suraj decided it was time to reach out to the distributors and theater owners personally. One contact in particular came to mind: a seasoned theater chain owner named Ramesh Tiwari. Ramesh was known for his fair-minded approach and his support of promising films, even if they were from less established filmmakers. Suraj had met him once at an industry gathering, and though they weren't close, Ramesh had spoken warmly about his admiration for the production industry.
Suraj decided to take a chance and reached out.

The next morning, Suraj met with Ramesh at his office in one of Bharat's oldest cinema halls, a place full of history and character. Ramesh, a graying man with a kind but shrewd expression, listened intently as Suraj explained his vision for Bloody Commando, the story behind it, and the meaning it now held for people across Bharat.
"You've done something commendable, Suraj," Ramesh said thoughtfully, leaning back in his chair. "The people are responding because they see the honesty in your intentions. But there's a lot of pressure from the Veer Yodha camp. They've locked in most of my premium screens for weeks."
Suraj took a deep breath, knowing he had to be bold. "Ramesh-ji, I'm not asking for a favor. I'm asking for a partnership. Bloody Commando has proven that it can touch people's hearts. We've seen the response, and I believe it can go even further. If you can help us secure even a few more screens, I'm confident the film will not only perform well but will make both of us proud."
Ramesh rubbed his chin, his expression softening as he considered the idea. "You know, I've watched this industry long enough to tell when something has genuine potential. All right, Suraj. I'll make a call to the central distributor and see if we can negotiate a few extra screens for you. But I can't guarantee a massive expansion right away."
Suraj felt a surge of hope. "Thank you, Ramesh-ji. Even a handful of new theaters would make a difference. I promise, Bloody Commando won't let you down."

True to his word, Ramesh worked his connections, and within two days, he managed to secure an additional 150 screens for Bloody Commando, especially in smaller towns and regions where Veer Yodha was losing its pull. But the breakthrough didn't end there. The buzz around Suraj's commitment to Bharat's armed forces continued to build, leading a few more independent theater owners to approach him directly. By the end of the week, Bloody Commando was showing in over 700 theaters nationwide.
As the film reached more audiences, the StarGram page for Mythic Productions exploded with messages of encouragement and pride:
"@ProudArmyMom: Suraj, my son serves in the Azad Hind Force. Thank you for honoring our brave soldiers. We watched Bloody Commando yesterday, and it was amazing!"
"@BharatUnited: This is the type of cinema we need! No more fluff—real stories that make us proud. Way to go, Suraj!"
"@MovieBuff: Just saw Bloody Commando! The theater was packed, and people were cheering. The post-climax scene was pure chills. Can't wait for the sequel!"
"@HeroKamalFan: Kamal Singh's cameo was everything! But Suraj's gesture for Major Rathore's family has my respect. Everyone should go watch this film!"

Suraj was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of positive feedback. It felt surreal, as though everything he had dreamed of was slowly coming true. His office buzzed with energy as more people reached out with proposals, partnerships, and requests for interviews. Media channels wanted to cover not just the film but also the unique story behind it and Suraj's decision to donate to the fallen soldier's family.
Sitting at his desk, Suraj took a moment to reflect on the journey so far. Just weeks ago, he had been struggling to keep Mythic Productions afloat. Now, he was at the center of a film that was touching hearts across Bharat. But it was Aryan's words that echoed most deeply in his mind—words that had ignited his determination to make a difference.
He looked out the window, smiling as he thought of Aryan. This wasn't just about him anymore. It was about fulfilling a responsibility, honoring a family legacy, and creating something that mattered to people. And if Bloody Commando continued on this path, it would become much more than a hit movie. It would become a symbol of resilience and unity, a testament to Bharat's strength and compassion.
Suraj picked up his phone and opened the StarGram app, posting a heartfelt message to everyone who had supported the film:
"Thank you, Bharat. Your love and support for Bloody Commando and for our soldiers is what drives us forward. We are honored to be a part of this journey with you. Let's continue celebrating the bravery and sacrifices of our heroes together. Jai Hind."
In no time, the post received thousands of likes and comments from supporters across the nation. It wasn't just the numbers or the business that mattered to Suraj—it was the people, the connection, and the responsibility he felt to keep making stories that honored the nation he had come to cherish as his own.
