The Biggest Flops of 2008
The year has not been too kind for the Hindi film industry, and there have been many duds at the box office. As the year comes to an end, we asked trade analyst Vinod Mirani to tell us what worked and what didn't. He makes a list, we try to explain why.
Kidnap
A lot of expected out of Kidnap. It was directed by Sanjay Gadhvi, who made the blockbuster Dhoom series.
It starred Imran Khan, the latest star on the block, fresh from his debut hit film Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na. The other star was Sanjay Dutt, with a fan base already in place.
But the film simply could not take advantage for all that what was going for it. Imran didn't play kidnapper properly, Minisha Lamba looked ridiculous as the fashionable victim, her mother Vidya Malvade looked even more ridiculous with her spilling-over cleavage, and Dutt looked just plain bored.
