2024 was a successful year for Bollywood. We witnessed Stree 2 achieve new milestones in the Hindi belt. Many other biggies like Munjya, Article 370, and Shaitaan also attained box office. But there were also many disappointments that were outright rejected by cine-goers. Scroll below as we revisit the biggest flops of the year.
It was a tough year for Akshay Kumar, who treated fans with as many as 4 feature films, but three of them were flops. The only exception was Stree 2, but he played a cameo role in the horror-comedy. On the other hand, Ajay Devgn also had five big releases, but only one of them was a box office hit.
