Flops - that weren’t meant to be (2006)
10
January
Well, continuing the tradition of 2005, this year too some of the big movies were not expected to hit the ground so hard, but unfortunately met the ill fate. As usual, producers and distributors were the people whose ships sank. For directors and actors it was just one another glass on rocks. Some of these movies listed, though might prestigious awards in days to come, but in the box office it failed miserably due to many reasons - script, star cast, competition and even Mumbai rain.
So without further ado, let’s unravel the worst top ten of this year.






Well by now, everyone knows the fate of the movie. But still I would stick with my first impression of the movie, when I watched neraly a month ago.
After such a powerful social drama like Baghban, Baabul is major let down. Apart from few intresting scenes the movie lacks strong and gripping narative. Inorder to have strong impact about any social issue, you need to present that issue with much sensitivity and sensibility. But sorry to say, Ravi Chopra sir has faltered this time by focusing more on stars than making effective characters out of those stars.
Last year, Sangeeth Sivan (director) said Kya Kool Hain Hum and earned more money than ace filmmakers under Ekta Kapoor’s production. This time Sivan is saying ‘Apna Sapana Money Money’ hoping to earn much more under Mr. Subash Ghai’s production. As the title itself suggests, ASMM is zero logic - David Dhawan style comedy, not made for serious movie critics. If you want to enjoy this movie then leave your thinking caps at home.
