On Thursday morning, Big B recalled the time when a film's success was measured in weeks it lasted in cinema halls. He posted a picture of himself that appears to be from the Seventies and wrote: "The 1970's .. And the years when films did 50 weeks and 100 weeks ... And 6-7 of them being released in the same year and all doing more than 50 weeks ...Now OTT millions make success graphs."
