I loved Mohenjodaro, I appreciated the PH/director's effort to recreate Indus Valley civilization and dont care if it didnt fall in accurate category according to some experts. Which BW historical really is that accurate?

I love all these Flop movies for the great acting, direction, storyliine and I dont care how much they made at BO because personally I love watching them repeatedly on TV/ DVR

Swades
Jagga Jasoos
Fan
Patiala House
Guzaarish
Do Dooni Chaar
Lootera
Dor
Luck By Chance
Phir Bhi Dil hai Hindustani (way ahead of its times in dissing sensationalism in TV news)
Jolly LLB 1
Stanley Ka Dabba (adorable film)
Well Done Abba
Drishyam
Rocket Singh
Page 3


Will add more names later when I remember them

Ittefaq, Aiyaary - I think they suffered mainly because of how unpopular Sid is.
Bhavesh Joshi - It is definitely one of the better movies I watched this year.
Pari - It wasn't bad actually. Some scares and the storyline was intriguing for me, especially because it was related to Djinns.
Ek Main aur Ek Tu - It was a very fresh perspective on friendship, no wonder it flopped. I liked it.
Shandaar - Everybody hates it. I am the only person who loved everything in it.

Shahid's movie chupke chupke or something where kareena was mute. Weird i know but i loved the chemistry of pair the heera pheeri actor and the actor who played VDs friends in judwaa2. And i like the comedy scenes in that movie. And feel of the movie was good

i think guzaarish was criticized a lot when it was released because of the sensitive subject
everyone i know hated it but i loved it😆 haven't watched patiala house rest i agree.
jagga jasoos could've been an amazing chilldren movie franchise wish it was not musical + they should've focused on one story plot

Swades - Shocked to see the movie flopped after being well written, acted and directed
Guzaarish - Could have been atleast average
Dhrishyam - I loved this movie although it was a remake
Bombay Velvet - Although it was boring, it was much better than Khan movies and I loved the songs. The songs too are not famous at all.
Phobia - Good story and well acted
Ghanchakkar - Although it was all over the place, I loved watching Emraan and Vidya. Quite many comic scenes too.
Lamhe - The movie was actually nice but it flopped.
Lakshya - Another movie of Hrithik which was actually good but did not do well at BO.
