Pathaan to Adipurush: 7 Movies Of 2023 That Created A Lot Of Hype But Turned Out To Be Huge Disappointment

The year 2023 was filled with eager anticipation as movie lovers looked forward to a promising lineup of highly anticipated films. However, as the curtains lifted and screens flickered to life, it became clear that not all that glittered was cinematic gold. Here are the most hyped movies of 2023 that, regrettably, failed to live up to the lofty expectations. From big-budget blockbusters to highly anticipated sequels, these productions left audiences yearning for more, ultimately becoming huge disappointments. Join us as we delve into the realm of cinematic letdowns, dissecting what went wrong in these much-anticipated titles.

1. Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani

We were very excited when Karan Johar announced a coming-of-age romantic drama starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. However, whatever makes Karan Johar’s movies special seems to be missing. There were no heart-touching moments, no powerful chemistry between the lead pair, and no timeless, mesmerizing songs. ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’ was a huge disappointment for many who grew up watching his classics like ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai‘ or ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.’ (Also Read: Things That Left Us Disappointed About Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani)

2. Bawaal

When the director of the superhit movie ‘Dangal,’ Nitesh Tiwari, announced his movie ‘Bawaal,’ our expectations were high. Known for his entertaining movies with powerful messages like ‘Chhichhore’ and ‘Dangal,’ Nitesh Tiwari rarely disappoints. Unfortunately, ‘Bawaal’ failed to impress, neither in its plot nor in the performances of Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor.
