20 Films Of 2016 That Did Not Live Upto The Expectations

While some films do well, some do not. This is how it works in Bollywood as it is hard to predict the audience’s taste and film producers and actors have both accepted it that not all of their films will become great hits. However, sometimes a movie looks promising, it has everything needed for it to become a big hit, and the actors, the producers and the directors are confident that the audience will love it. After watching the trailer, even the audience becomes confident that when the film releases, they will love it. However, it turns out that the film is not half as good as the trailer and the film loses its business. These are the kind of disappointments that we will be talking about today.

The two have also established themselves as talented actors. The sets too, were grand, considering that the film was set in Europe and all the trailers that were released made people go gaga with how cute the movie looked. However, no one could have predicted how predictable the story was. In fact, it was not too much of a job to predict the dialogues either. And this lead to the film’s downfall.

2. Roy

Today, the actors are ashamed to even acknowledge that they were a part of this film.

5. Calendar Girls Click to look into! >> Read More...

Since Madhur Bhandarkar had given us ‘ Fashion Click to look into! >> Read More... ’, people expected this one, which was also focused on the lives of models, to be something much more substantial and intriguing.

8. Singh Is Bling Click to look into! >> Read More...

After Singh Is King, this film was expected to be a masterpiece just like the previous one. Akshay Kumar Akshay Kumar was born on 9th September 1967 and hi >> Read More... looked as much a stud as ever, especially with the turban that suits him so well.

When this film released, Kangana Ranaut Kangana Ranaut is known in Bollywood, for her trem >> Read More... had made a reputation of accepting films that had the female lead as one of its substantial characters and a good story.

Their chemistry too seems to be much better in their gym videos together than on screen.

11. Hamari Adhuri Kahani Click to look into! >> Read More...

Everybody loved its music, the title track was played in almost all the television daily soaps, but no one could handle the actual film. It had a wife, whose husband was sexually abusing her, torturing her, but she refused to walk out of the marriage. This was based on the director’s own love story with his second wife, something which happened back in the 60s, so how was the audience expected to accept it today?

12. Hate Story 3

The series is supposed to be a revenge erotica. The film was the third installment and had four lead actors literally dying to show off their newly sculpted bodies. Both the actresses had lost weight, Sharman Joshi Sharman Joshi was born in Mumbai, Maharashtra to a >> Read More... had morphed his body, but the movie was far from being an erotica, as nothing about the film looked realistic or sexy.

The movie was a South Korean remake and expected to affirm that John Abraham Like some of our sexy stars, John Abraham has had >> Read More... is back in form. All it managed to affirm was that John can only flaunt his abs and flex his muscles. Acting never was his forte. A child is made to speak in the same tone throughout the movie, which also adds to the monotony.

16. Tere Bin Laden - Dead Or Alive

The first part of the movie which released in 2010 had done extremely well, because it had a fresh concept and amazing performances.

Tiger Shroff Jai Shroff or popularly known as Tiger Shroff is a >> Read More... is superbly fit, dances like a dream and the stunts he performs are beyond ordinary.

19. Fitoor Click to look into! >> Read More...

The most disappointing aspect of the film is that it is from the director who has given out films like ‘Rock On!!’ and ‘Kai Po Che’. The second most disappointing aspect is that the film is supposed to be based on Great Expectations Click to look into! >> Read More... by Charles Dickens The world-renowned British writer and social criti >> Read More... . Both these things fail to lift a film with frequently over dramatized situations that led to a loss of interest.
