I am going to be an odd one but I loved Asoka. Kareen was a miscast. Shahrukh looked really cute in that film.

The movie didn't even matter...it didn't even open. Disaster from Day 1.

KING khan or not...you just didn't clash with this guy back then.



I love your obsession with Sunny 😆

Did Asoka really clash with Indian? I didn't see this movie until years later.

Actually all the khans failed in period roles
SRK-Asoka
Aamir-Mangal pandey
Salman-veer


The movie that resurrected Aamir Khan's career was also a period movie- Lagaan!

Asoka, IMO, didnt work because I dont think the sets were that great...and the love story kind of overshadowed the narrative of Asoka's transformation.

I loved that movie...don't know why it flopped...2001 was all about k3g,gadar,lagaan and dil chahta hain...that era was a dull era of bw.

Asoka and Indian had clashed in 2002...Sunny Paaji's Indian had the highest opening that year...

What the hell you are comparing Ashoka and bajirao mastani
I haven't seen BM yet but I am more than 100% sure it would be better than Ashoka

It was butchered picturisation of great ashoka
The dialogues were hilarious it referred to this time

And moreover srk acting
Let's admit it he doesn't suit in such roles


Worst film Ashoka after HNY ..

But soundtrack was impressive

Deepika the real reason. Even Tamasha worked because of Deepika. But, once people came to cinema, that movie totally about Ranbir, some Deepika fans felt cheated



But Deepika would have been 15 years old back then..How were they supposed to cast a 15 year old as the female lead? 😲

OT: Because it was a terrible film..It had fabulous songs though..Roshni se, San sanana and raat ka nasha<3

The movie story wise was bad as they had not done justice to Asoka history. Also the acting was subpar and so was the direction.

The only best part of the movie is the soundtrack, amazing songs. My favourite Raat Ka Naasha.

I too feel SRK was a misfit as Asoka back then. Plus the costumes and makeup were kinda hilarious 😆
