Movies which you didn't expect to be a hit, but were a hit or movies which you never expected to flop, but flopped badly.
For me- Dhoom 3, I still wonder how it became a blockbuster.
Gori Tere Pyaar mein- I thought that it would atleast collect 30 crores. But it was a total disaster.

Going by the IF hype,

I never expected Mary Kom to underperform and Holiday to become a success

Holiday yes. Everyone thought it would flop.
Mary Kom, yes to an extent. Everyone thought it would an epic movie but it turned out to be rather an average one.

I know it was hopeless.😆 But still, it had good songs. It didn't even get a decent opening, only 3.25 crore. So people weren't even interested in watching the movie, forget bad WOM.

Actually, the first half was good okay.😆 The shit started when they go to the village. It was just absurd and stupid.
Wasn't EMAET a hit?

Oh yes, I felt bad for Queen too when it opened so low.
Good list.
Ranjhana was bad according to me. But many people liked it over here.
