Top 5 Disastrous Movies That Deserve Your Attention
1. 83
Based on India's 1983 World Cup win, 83 was released on December 24, 2021. Directed by Kabir Khan, the film starred Ranveer Singh as legendary cricketer, former captain of India's national cricket team, Kapil Dev. The biographical sports drama featured Deepika Padukone as his on-screen wife, Romi Bhatia. Actors like Tahir Raj Bhasin, Jiiva, Saqib Saleem, and Jatin Sharma played crucial roles. Ranveer truly aced the character of Kapil Dev and the film aptly represented the World Cup victory.
2. KHEL KHEL MEIN
Helmed by Mudassar Aziz, Khel Khel Mein hit the screens on August 15, 2024. Headlined by Akshay Kumar, the comedy drama also featured Fardeen Khan, Vaani Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu, Ammy Virk, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal. It locked horns with Stree 2 and Vedaa at the box office. Khel Khel Mein had an interesting storyline featuring their mobile phones that opened the secrets of their respective lives.
3. JIGRA
Starring Alia Bhatt, Jigra was released on October 11, 2024. Helmed by Vasan Bala, the action thriller featured Alia as Satya who gets on a mission to rescue her younger brother, Ankur Anand (played by Vedang Raina) from a foreign prison.

After the delay in its release, Maidaan finally hit the screens on April 11, 2024, coinciding with Eid.
