A 2010 Box Office Flop That Made a Star and an Auteur Swear Off Working Together Again

Ah, Bollywood! The land where drama never ends, both on-screen and off. Today, we’re diving into the latest buzz around two of Bollywood’s most talked-about stars, Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Grab your popcorn, folks, because the drama is sizzling!

When Family Drama Outshines the Silver Screen 🎬

So, our dear Abhishek and Aishwarya have been in the spotlight again, but not for a blockbuster hit. Nope, this time it’s all about family drama! Recently, there was a lavish family function, and guess what? The Bachchan couple was noticeably absent. Abhishek was seen with his mom Jaya, dad Amitabh, and sister Shweta, but Aishwarya and their daughter Aaradhya were MIA. Suspicious, much? 🤔

Rumors have been flying faster than a Bollywood dance sequence! But hold your horses; Abhishek decided to put an end to the speculation with a diplomatic Instagram post. Because nothing says ‘all is well’ like a carefully curated social media update, right?

The Office Drama: A Tale of Boxes and Bollywood 📦

Speaking of Instagram, Abhishek and Aishwarya’s film ‘Raavan’ had some interesting behind-the-scenes drama. Apparently, the office for this film was so chaotic that even the staplers had a nervous breakdown. They couldn’t get their act together until the film was almost wrapped up. Typical Bollywood, am I right?

The couple has worked together in multiple films, some hits, some… let’s just say they were "learning experiences." Post their ‘Guru’ success, they united for ‘Raavan,’ a film where Abhishek’s character was as lost as the plot. Released in 2010, this film was supposed to be a magnum opus but ended up being a magnum ‘oops-us.’

What a Cast! What a Disaster! 😱

In ‘Raavan,’ Abhishek played a modern-day Robin Hood, but the real hero was the budget – a whopping 55 crores! Yet, it only managed to collect around 50.84 crores. Ouch! The film had star power with Abhishek, Aishwarya, and even Govinda, but it was a train wreck. The music was good, though, so there’s that.

Abhishek and Aishwarya, you two are fabulous, but maybe it’s time to rethink those joint film ventures?

Nisha’s Nutshell 💡

Moral of the Story: In Bollywood, family drama often outshines the silver screen. And remember, a big budget doesn’t always guarantee a big hit. Sometimes, it’s just a big, expensive lesson. 🎥💸
