7 Big Budget Bollywood Movies That Were A Disaster On The Box Office; Number 3 One Ran Out Of Luck
2022 saw many big budget movies that gave audience a high hope but performed miserably at the box office. While some barely collected 4 crores, others failed at storytelling. From Kanganaga Ranauts Dhaakad to Ranbir Kapoors Shamshera, see which which flop Bollywood movies of 2022 made it to the list.
1. Laal Singh ChaddhaAn attempt of remaking the iconic Hollywood classic Forrest Gump, Aamir Khan, and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer Laal Singh Chaddha was a disaster at the box office. While the audience had high expectations from Mr. Perfectionist, it mostly garnered negative reviews. The movie was made with a whopping budget of Rs. 180 crores but it was only able to collect Rs. 50 crores.Not only the audience but even Aamir Khan was left disappointed with the response it received. So much so that the actor decided to take a step back from acting and focus on becoming a producer instead.
2. Samrat PrithvirajWhile this marked Manushi Chillar's debut movie, neither her acting nor the movie could impress the audience. While Akshay Kumar delivered his finest performance, the director Chandrapraksah Dwivedi was highly disappointed with the actor for not giving his hundred percent. Samrat prithviraj was made on a budget of Rs. 175 crores but it only collected Rs. 64 crores
3. ShamsheraA strong star cast of Ranbir Kapoor, Sanjay Dutt, and Vaani Kapoor but the movie still failed to impress people. While the story sounded interesting on paper, the execution created havoc at the box office. Movie critics and Bollywood buffs gave a disastrous movie review for Shamshera. The historic drama was backed by Rs. 183 crores but was able to collect a meager Rs. 65 crores.
4. Jayeshbhai JordaarDespite Ranveer Singh's effortless performance and an impactful storyline, Jayeshbhai Jordaar was only able to collect Rs. 26 crores. Banked by Yash Raj Films, the movie's budget was Rs, 86 crores.
5. Radhe ShyamStarring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde, the romantic drama failed to impress the audience. While Bahubali must have worked like a charm for the actor, Radhe Shyam, on the contrary, did not do well at the box office. It was one of the worst Bollywood movies of 2022. The producers spent around Rs. 350 crores for the South movie but it only collected Rs. 120 crores.
6. DhaakadKangana Ranaut and Arjun Rampal's action-drama was officially the worst-performing movie of 2022. Despite hiring an international team to direct action sequences, Dhaakad was definitely a disaster. After spending around Rs 87 crore, the movie only collected around Rs 3.77 crore. Blame it on the weak storyline of the Boycott Bollywood movement, Dhaakad was one of the most flop movies in Bollywood.
7. Raksha Bandhan2022 didn't look like a good year for Akshay Kumar. After Samrat Prithviraj, this family drama was yet another Bollywood mishap in 2022. Raksha Bandhan's budget was Rs. 70 crores and it was able to collect only 58 crores.
