In 2024, never mind the doomsayers proclaiming that Bollywood needs saving - there were some genuinely good movies, such as Kiran Rao's Laapataa Ladies, Amar Kaushik's Stree 2, and Nikhil Nagesh Bhat's Kill. Of course, there were bad ones too, and plenty of propaganda films as well. Then there are those that arrive with sky-high expectations, only to fall flat upon release, leaving audiences disillusioned. Examples? Ali Abbas Zafar's much-hyped two-hero actioner Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Rohit Shetty's discount Avengers cop fest, Singham Again.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Year-Ender 2024: From Amar Kaushik슬롯사이트™s 슬롯사이트˜Stree 2슬롯사이트� to Kiran Rao슬롯사이트™s 슬롯사이트˜Laapataa Ladies슬롯사이트�, 9 Best Bollywood Movies of the Year and Where To Watch Them Online.

In this year-end feature, we highlight 10 of the most disappointing Bollywood films of 2024 - movies that entered with a roar and exited from our attention with a whimper. A couple of them even made good money at the box office, but that doesn't excuse their shoddy content; they simply conned audiences better. I슬롯사이트™ve also tried to avoid outright propaganda films - those are consistently subpar with malicious intentions to create mischief - but I made an exception for a couple here, purely due to the talent involved and the expectations they carried.

1.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Bade Miyan Chote Miyan

A Still From Bade Miyan Chote Miyan

Director: Ali Abbas Zafar

Cast: Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Prithviraj Sukumaran, Sonakshi Sinha, Manushi Chhillar and Alaya F.

The original BMCM, starring Amitabh Bachchan and Govinda, was a hit back in 1998. Circa 2024, the namesake reboot starred Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, with Malayalam star Prithviraj Sukumaran as the antagonist. Despite its star-studded cast, the film turned out to be a generic, uninspired action thriller, with even the lead duo's leaden bromance failing to deliver any sparks.

2.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Bhaiyya Ji

A Still From Bhaiyya Ji

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Apoorva Singh Karki

Cast: Manoj Bajpayee, Zoya Hussain and슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Suvinder Vicky.

With everyone hopping on the action bandwagon, Manoj Bajpayee couldn슬롯사이트™t resist joining the fray for his 100th film, which슬롯 머신 사이트 추천was also a film he슬롯 머신 사이트 추천produced. In this supposed rustic version of John Wick, the revenge saga fails on all counts슬롯사이트”from subpar editing and action choreography to a lacklustre performance by Bajpayee himself.

3.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Ishq Vishk Rebound

A Still From Ishq Vishk Rebound

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Nipun Dharmadhikari

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Rohit Saraf, Pashmina Roshan, Jibraan Khan and Naila Grrewal.

A sequel nobody asked for, Ishq Vishk Rebound borrows a couple of songs from the original Shahid Kapoor starrer and little else. The film replaces the breezy charm of the 2003 classic with unlikeable characters, wooden acting, and a script that mistakes infatuation for lust.

4.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba

A Still From Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba

Director: Jayprad Desai

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Taapsee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, Sunny Kaushal and Jimmy Sheirgill.

Despite its criticism for romanticising toxic relationships, Hasseen Dillruba found a cult following. However, even die-hard fans might struggle to defend its convoluted sequel, which piles on silly twists in the hope of creating intrigue. The only saving grace is Sunny Kaushal's performance as the new antagonist.

5.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천CTRL

A Still From CTRL

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Vikramaditya Motwane

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Ananya Panday and Vihaan Samat.

This inclusion might surprise some, as Vikramaditya Motwane's cyber-thriller has also made its way to a few 슬롯사이트œBest of 2024슬롯사이트� lists in certain portals. While Ananya Panday delivers an impressive lead performance, and Motwane experiments with the screenlife format, the film fails to offer anything groundbreaking and is very forgettable. Compared to better films in this genre, like Mahesh Narayan's CU Soon, CTRL feels predictable and its cautionary message about online addiction overly simplistic.

6.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Do Patti

A Still From Do Patti

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Shashanka Chaturvedi

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Kajol, Kriti Sanon, Shaheer Sheikh and Tanvi Azmi.

2024 was not Kanika Dhillon's year. After the letdown of Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, her thriller Do Patti followed suit. A poorly executed attempt at feminist storytelling, the film underestimated its audience with a predictable plot and heavy-handed messaging. Kriti Sanon's dual performance is its sole redeeming factor.

7.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Singham Again

A Still From Singham Again

Director: Rohit Shetty

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Tiger Shroff, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor and Jackie Shroff.

Rohit Shetty assumes his audience needs every detail spoon-fed, as evidenced by this ensemble cop drama. Just in case we miss the Ramayana parallels, he throws in literal footage of the epic being performed on stage. With half the cast wasted and the rest irritating, this sequel proves that Shetty is running out of ideas to keep his loyal fan base entertained.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Year-Ender 2024: From Rajkummar Rao슬롯사이트™s 슬롯사이트˜Stree 2슬롯사이트� to Kartik Aaryan슬롯사이트™s 슬롯사이트˜Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3슬롯사이트�, 10 Highest-Grossing Bollywood Movies of the Year and Which of Them Are Actual Box Office Hits!

8.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Sabarmati Report

A Still From The Sabarmati Report

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Dheeraj Sarna

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Vikrant Massey, Raashii Khanna and Riddhi Dogra.

An unabashed exercise in whitewashing political history, The Sabarmati Report disgusts with its blatant propaganda. Using talented actors like Vikrant Massey, Raashii Khanna, and Ridhi Dogra for this poorly made narrative is frustrating enough; its clear political agenda using a terrible tragedy makes it even worse.

9.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Sikandar Ka Muqaddar

A Still From Sikandar Ka Muqaddar

Director:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Neeraj Pandey

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Jimmy Shergill, Tamannaah Bhatia, Avinash Tiwary and Divya Dutta.

What happened to Neeraj Pandey? Once celebrated for gems like A Wednesday, Baby and Special 26, Pandey delivered two duds in 2024 - Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha and Sikandar Ka Muqaddar. The latter, a confusing thriller with nonsensical writing, simply couldn't hoodwink the viewer with its convoluted twists.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The tone was also all over the place and so were the performances.

10.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Vanvaas

A Still From Vanvaas

Director: Anil Sharma

Cast: Nana Patekar, Utkarsh Sharma and Simrat Kaur.

After the blockbuster success of Gadar 2, Anil Sharma returns with Vanvaas, a dated emotional drama once again designed to launch his son, Utkarsh Sharma, into stardom. With its overly sentimental tone and lack of modern sensibilities, not even Nana Patekar could salvage this misfire.

11.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Baby John

A Still From Baby John

Director: Kalees

Cast:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Varun Dhawan, Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi, Jackie Shroff and Rajpal Yadav.

The teaser and trailer promised a rare Hindi remake that might surpass the original, Theri. Instead, Baby John makes the average Tamil entertainer look like a masterpiece in comparison. Poor direction and editing derail Varun Dhawan's attempt at redemption, and not even Salman Khan's cameo could save the film.
