Bollywood's biggest flops

Several Bollywood films have suffered massive failures, despite generating huge pre-release hype or setting records in advance booking. Here are some of the biggest flops:

Bombay Velvet

Despite having one of the A-listers from Bollywood like Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Karan Johar, Vicky Kaushal, Raveena Tandon, this crime thriller flopped badly at the box office.

Saawariya

Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor made their acting debut with this musical drama. Despite being directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, this film flopped massively.

Kalank

Another poor box office film is this Karan Johar production with an ensemble star cast, including Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur. However, the songs have garnered good views on YouTube.

Zero

This film's box office failure was a shock for Shah Rukh Khan fans. After this film, the King of Bollywood went on a four-year hiatus, and returned with back-to-back three hits Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki.

Kites

Despite having Mexican actress Bárbara Mori in the lead, this Hrithik Roshan-starrer action drama became a major failure. However, the songs received much love from the netizens and good views on YouTube.

Laal Singh Chaddha

Despite being inspired by Tom Hanks' Oscar-winning film Forrest Gump, this Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan-starrer flopped at the box office. Reports say the narrative was intolerable for the audiences.

Ra.One

Another Shah Rukh Khan film that flopped badly at the box office. Reports say the poor VFX quality was a major turn off for the audience. However, years later, netizens agreed that the film was ahead of its time.
