Ever since I started blogging, I was contemplating this idea to put my list of worst movies ever. This list only includes movies I have seen. My criteria of putting a movie in this category are very simple. I have gauged the hype created and expectations generated by the movie before its release against the final outcome.Do remember that this is my list, I have not referred any public opinion or critics ratings.
Movie: Boom Release Year: 2003 Misdirected by: Kaizad Gustad Shitt Remarks: Undoubtedly, the worst movie I have ever seen. A film having star cast of Amitabh Bachchan, Zeenat Aman (Can you enjoy a old Zeenat Aman doing cabaret ---yieeee), Jackie Shroff (In fact the movie was produced by his wife Ayesha Shroff), Javed Jaffrey, Padma Lakshmi, Madhu Sapre, and yes, The Katrina Kaif (Her debut film though). Can you ignore a movie with such a star power? | |
Movie: RGV Ki Aag Release Year: 2007 Misdirected by: Ram Gopal Verma Shitt Remarks: Do I need to elaborate? I had to fight with my friend to put it in this list, he was of the opinion that this wasn’t a movie at all. | |
Movie: Jaani Dushman – Ek Anokhi Kahani Release Year: 2002 Misdirected by: Rajkumar Kohli Shitt Remarks: Bollywood answer to The Terminator II– The Judgement Day. You have to grind your mind to find out who was not there in the movie, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty, Sunny Deol, Manisha Koirala, the list goes on. Hey Hey ... it also had Sonu Nigam, yes as an actor (sorry i could not find any other word, I have to term him as an actor only). The Kahani of the movie was so Anokha that nobody could understand. | |
Move: Guddu Release Year: 1995 Misdirected by: Prem Lalwani Shitt Remarks: Shahrukh Khan and Manisha Koirala, both at their prime, yes at their prime to pakao the Audience. | |
Movie: Zamana Deewana Release Year: 1995 Misdirected by: Ramesh Shippy Shitt Remarks: Again Shahrukh Khan this time with Raveena Tandon. The movie also had Satrughna Sinha and Jeetendra, the hit pair of Khudgarz. Above all the movie was directed by the legendry Ramesh Shippy. The Zamana didn’t become deewana and Mr. Shippy couldn’t tolerate the shock or perhaps somebody from the poorly frustrated audience must have threatened him, he hasn’t directed any movie after that. | |
Movie: Mela Release Year: 2000 Misdirected by: Dharmesh Darshan Shitt Remarks: The hit director Dharmesh Darshan and Amir Khan’s unique pairing. The perfectionist could have never been so imperfect. Mela mein tumne Audience ke saath Khela Amir, Satyamev Jayate. | |
Movie: Trimurti Release Year: 1995 Misdirected by: Mukul S. Anand Shitt Remarks: Can you imagine, a movie produced by Subhash Ghai, directed by Mukul S. Anand and acted by Shahrukh Khan, Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff, bombed at the box office. There was nothing in the movie that one can remember. Duniya wale very good very good, Ghai sahab ki movie very bad very bad. | |
Movie: Chahat Release Year: 1996 Misdirected by: Mahesh Bhatt Shitt Remarks: The dream pairing of Mahesh Bhatt and Shahrukh Khan was presented to the audience for the first time along with the ever versatile Naseerudding Shah but the final product was a forgettable affair. Iss Chahat se har koi hua ahat. | |
Movie: Duplicate Release Year: 1998 Misdirected by: Mahesh Bhatt Shitt Remarks: Once again Mahesh Bhatt failed to deliver and once again Shahrukh Khan overacted. After the release of the movie both the actor and director would have searched for a duplicate. | |
Movie: Hello Brother Release Year: 1999 Misdirected by: Sohail Khan Shitt Remarks: An all family affair, directed by Sohail Khan and acted by Salman and Arbaz. Salman did everything but acting in the movie. | |

I moderate my comments :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | Movie: Saawariya Release Year: 2007 Misdirected by: Sanjay Leela Bhansali Shitt Remarks: SLB’s movie with Salman Khan, introduction of Ranbir and Sonam Kapoor, and Rani Mukherjee still in her heydays, yet the overconfidence of SLB spoilt everything. SLB hugely underrated the audience. Note: Among those who have read this post, three of them had disagreed with Saawariya featuring in the list. Read the comment section. |
Movie: Tees Maar Khan Release Year: 2010 Misdirected by: Farah Khan Shitt Remarks: I wonder, what Farah Khan was thinking while making this movie, or whether Farah Khan can actually think at all. | |
Movie: Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon Release Year: 2003 Misdirected by: Sooraj Barjatya Shitt Remarks: Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan and Kareena Kapoor, a dream cast, isn’t it? Under the then super hit banner of Rajshree Production. I hate to say, but in this movie Abhishek acted better than Hrithik, now you can understand the quality. | |
Movie: Whats your Rashee? Release Year: 2009 Misdirected by: Ashutosh Gowarikar Shitt Remarks: A movie under such a brilliant director, acted by Priyanka Chopra and the script inspired by hit TV series Mr. Yogi. Believe me, whatever I remember about the serial, it was far better in quality and humour. The serial was directed by Ketan Mehta. | |
Movie: Drona Release Year: 2009 Misdirected by: Goldie Behl Shitt Remarks: A super hero film and you need to be a super human to watch this. Abhishek Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra would have certainly erased this movie from their own movie list. | |
Movie: Yuvvraj Release Year: 2008 Misdirected by: Subhash Ghai Shitt Remarks: A film with a big star cast of Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor and Katrina Kaif. The movie was directed by the showman of Hindi Cinema, but the shows in the theatre didn’t attract any man. Ghai Saab added an extra V to add luck and victory but the audience read the two Vs as W and said WTF. | |
Movie: Mumbai Xpress Release Year: 2005 Misdirected by: Singeetham Sreenivasa Rao Shitt Remarks: The brilliance of Singeetham Sreenivasa Rao and Kamal Haasan, yet the movie was simply pathetic. It was promoted as a comedy and after watching the movie you will laugh at yourself. | |
Movie: Abhay (Aalavandhan in Tamil)Release Year: 2001 Misdirected by: Suresh Krishna Shitt Remarks: For a great admirer of the great Kamal Haasan, this was a bouncer that hit hard on the head. I could neither understand the movie nor the acting of Kamal Haasan. | |
Movie: Ek Aur Ek Gyarah Release Year: 2003 Misdirected by: David Dhawan Shitt Remarks: A movie produced by Subhash Ghai, Directed by David Dhawan and acted by earlier hit pair Govinda and Sanjay Dutt. This movie simply unwatchable. The movie doomed again because the director underrated the audience. | |
Movie: Agent Vinod Release Year: 2012 Misdirected by: Sriram Raghvan Shitt Remarks: How could a director who made movie like Ek Hasina Thi and Johnny Gaddaar, made a movie like this. Hot pairing of Saif and Kareena and Saif being producer of the movie, they simply cheated the few audience that watched the movie. | |
Movie: Raavan Release Year: 2010 Misdirected by: Mani Ratnam Shitt Remarks: Govinda jumping trees and rhyming, and projected as Hanuman, do I need to say more? | |
Movie: Kites Release Year: 2010 Misdirected by: Anurag Basu Shitt Remarks: Hrithik Roshan under his father banner was perhaps too involved with Barbara Mori that he couldn’t realise when the string of his kite was cut-loose. | |
Movie: Yaadein Release Year: 2001 Misdirected by: Subhash Ghai Shitt Remarks: Hrithik and Kareena was paired for the first time under the direction of the showman himself. This was the beginning the fall of Subhash Ghai. Many would argue that the signs of the fall was already seen during Taal, but Taal was at least a hit. | |
Movie: Players Release Year: 2012 Misdirected by: Abbas Mastan Shitt Remarks: One of the most anticipated movie of 2012. If you want to learn how to spoil a good script, please watch this movie. This movie was inspired by The Italian Job. Magic and Illusion in a heist movie to Indianise the script, whatta shitt... | |
Movie: Tashan Release Year: 2008 Misdirected by: Vijay Krishna Acharya Shitt Remarks: The movie was of Yash Raj Banner, had actors like Anil Kapoor, Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor. The number zero was quite popularised with this movie, Kareena had size zero, the acting of all the actors specially Anil Kapoor can be rated as zero and the net effect, the number of audience in the theater were zero. |
Those were my pick of 25 films. But, a cake isn't complete without its icing, so allow me to decorate my list with the 26th movie.
Movie: RA.ONE
Release Year: 2011
Misdirected by: Anubhav Sinha
Shitt Remarks: Shahrukh had claimed before the release of the movie that it has more special effects than ‘Avataar’. Now that was a big statement. When I saw the movie and saw Shahrukh’s avatar, I had to agree with his statement, even James Cameron had failed to make a dinosaur look like a human. None of the movies in the history of Indian Cinema had created such a hype, but miserably failed to live up to that expectation.
Though I had not considered public opinion for this post, I have realised that you cannot ignore them either. So after a few responses, I have decided that I will put a remark in the post itself.
