Dhaakad
Because Kangana Ranaut fired her firearms for the first time on screen and the producers engaged action directors from all over the world, Dhaakad was one of the most anticipated movies of 2022. Unfortunately, the film was a complete disaster because of its weak direction and flimsy premise, which led to scathing reviews soon after its release. Razneesh Ghai is the director of the 2022 Hindi-language action movie Dhaakad, which translates to “Formidable”. Kangana Ranaut, Arjun Rampal, Divya Dutta, and Saswata Chatterjee are the film’s stars.
On May 20, 2022, Dhaakad was given a theatrical release. It earned mixed reviews from critics and was a huge box office failure, with the majority of its shows being pulled from theatres just one week after their debut.
Nikamma
Son of Maine Pyar Kiya actress Bhagyashree, Abhimanyu Dassani made his acting debut in the movie. One of the worst-reviewed Bollywood movies of 2022, it failed to make even 2 crores over its whole run.
Samrat Prithviraj
The actor’s first-period drama, in which he played the Hindu warrior king Prithviraj Chauhan, was widely regarded as being miscast and ended up being forgettable entertainment. The historical film’s lackluster action sequences and dull dialogue crushed people’s hearts.
Jahan Chaar Yaar
This play, which was directed by Kamal Pandey, is getting poor reviews from critics and viewers alike. In the movie, four married ladies who feel trapped as stay-at-home moms take a vacation and thoroughly enjoy themselves. Lead actors include Swara Bhaskar, Meher Vij, Shikha Talsania, and Pooja Chopra.
Om-The Battle Within or Heropanti 2.
With 2.6 out of 10 ratings, Tiger’s “Heropanti 2” and Aditya Roy Kapur’s “Om” are rated second on the list of the poorest IMDb ratings for Bollywood movies in 2022. Despite having large budgets, neither of the films was able to draw audiences away from the theatres themselves and toward the ticket booths.
Liger
The Hindi-Telugu bilingual film “Liger” has an IMDb rating of 2.9 out of 10, making it the fourth-worst Bollywood film of 2022. It was one of the TFI’s most anticipated releases of 2022, but it incurred enormous losses and turned out to be a tremendous failure after Acharya. It is supported by Puri Jagannadh’s Puri Connects, the renowned south Indian director, and Karan Johar’s Dharma Entertainment.
Shamshera
Shamshera was supposed to bring the Hindi film industry’s dry run to a close at the box office, but its 100–150 crore theatrical run ended up being a massive letdown. At the Indian box office, it fell short of even the 50 crore threshold.
Raksha Bandhan
The seventh-lowest-rated Bollywood film of the year, Raksha Bandhan, debuted mediocre reviews from critics and a lackluster start at the box office. In terms of box office receipts, it ranks as one of Akshay’s poorest movies of 2022.
Laal Singh Chaddha
Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir Khan’s return to the big screen after a four-year absence, was one of the most eagerly awaited movies of 2022, but it was a financial catastrophe. Due to Aamir and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s (the female lead) prior utterances, there was controversy before the film’s release, and as a result, netizens called for a boycott of LSC. Many think that this may be one of the main causes of the movie’s underwhelming domestic reception, even though it did quite well abroad, becoming the highest-grossing Bollywood film there in 2022.
Radhe Shyam and Bachchan Pandey
The industry was shocked by the failure of the March releases of Biggies Radhe Shyam and Bachchan Paandey, both of which bombed at the box office and failed to attract audiences.
Gehraiyaan
Gehraiyaan, a multi-starrer with a complex love drama, gained notoriety for its peculiar plot, which was based on an adulterous incident. With an IMDb rating of 5.9/10 and ranking as the tenth worst picture on the list, it appears that audiences were unable to relate to the movie.
Tiranga,Code Number
The bouncy Parineeti Chopra movie, Code Name: Tiranga, starring Punjabi actor Hardy Sandhu, failed to shift her image from charming to action star.
This is the end of the list. Despite the fact that these films are among the worst Bollywood films of 2022. We must not neglect to recognize the dedication of the entire cast and crew, including the directors and performers, who make up these films. We did not use our own opinions when compiling this list; instead, we relied on the numerous ratings and reviews provided by the audience.
