The given column graphs compare the percentage of four genres of films released with their respective sales in 1996 and 2000. It is interesting to note that even though more drama than comedy films were released, the sales of comedy films was the maximum in both the given years.
Out of the four genres of films, drama films took the lead as approximately 27% were released in 1996. This was followed by comedy at nearly 20%, fantasy at 11% and romance at 5% being released in that year.
