The Indian film industry has witnessed some of the biggest box office setbacks in recent years, with several high profile projects failing to recover their massive investments.
At the top of the list stands War 2, which reportedly caused a staggering Rs 150 crore loss in theatrical business.
Despite the hype surrounding its star cast and action scale, the film fell short of expectations, setting a new record for the biggest failure in Indian cinema.
Close behind is Kanguva, which ended with a reported Rs 135 crore loss.
Once considered a potential blockbuster, the film could not sustain at the box office, and its record as a major disaster has now been overshadowed by War 2.
Other notable underperformers include Radhe Shyam with a Rs 125 crore loss, followed by Game Changer, which struggled to connect with audiences and incurred around Rs 120 crore in losses.
These staggering figures highlight the risks involved in big budget filmmaking.
Even with star power, scale and promotions, box office unpredictability continues to redefine success and failure in Indian cinema.
