Dumb and DUPER[ Go to Replies ] [ Go Back to Box Office Forum ] Posted by ahbolly on September 15, 2004 at 15:13:00: Expectations always take Boxoffice by surprise! But lets look back at the "dumb" movies getting all attention and making their way to stupendous 'super-duper' successes... 1. Sahib Biwi aur Ghulam, will top whole of the list with almost 0 expectations from audience as Guru dutt was in debts and named a 'jinx' at BO. Even now it is termed as classic -> Thanks to MEENA KUMARI 2. Nagina, the dumbest start at BO... went on to become biggest blockbuster and made Sridevi No.1 instantly -> Thanks to SRIDEVI 3. Jhankaar Beats, definitely a low-maintained publicity...but becoz of its "strong" content...is a surprise at BO -> Thanks to JUHI 4. Murder -> may be sex...but how many movies which have 'sex' as topic succeed lately? This is amazingly outstanding in that sector -> made crores in return and is just next to MHN this year -> Thanks to MALLIKA 5. Hum Tum -> Never even expected it to be average runner. Director has a bad history (MUJHSE DOSTI KAROGE), Hero doesnt have any solo hits, and only saviour thought to be Heroine...but it did do wonders at BO! -> Thanks to RANI Do you guys have any "dumb" movies which turned out to be blockbusters just becoz of an item or a person?
