A look at the year's biggest disasters.
The year 2014 was marked by more cinematic setbacks than filmi folks or fans would have liked.
While big budget projects lucked out, small films with really respectable names associated with them struggled to make money.
A look at some of the biggest flops of the year:
Super Nani (Rs 2.5 crore)
The Rekha starrer was delayed by many months and turned out to be a damp squib upon release.
The film was a critical and commercial disaster.

Kaanchi (Rs 4 crore)
Kaanchi was a labour of love and starred rank newcomer Mishti.
Whether it was the poor script, the howlarious direction or awful acting, Kaanchi got it wrong on all counts.
Easily, one of Subhash Ghai's worst ever.

O Teri (Rs 4 crore)
The film was devoid of a plot, and suffered due to a jerky narrative and unintentional humour.
Revolver Rani (Rs 11 crore)
Until Revolver Rani came out.
The mafia action thriller did have its moments, but an uneven narrative spoiled the show.
The film sank without a trace.

Gulaab Gang (Rs 15 crore)
This Anubhav Sinha production wasn't bad per se, but the audience was not particularly enthused to witness the (much hyped) face-off between the former reigning stars.
A poor climax didn't help its cause either.

Happy Ending (Rs 22 crore)
The film boasted of the romantic comedy flavour that we associate with Saif Ali Khan's previous successes, but audiences didn't give it a chance.
Despite praise for Govinda's turn and decent music, the film had a poor opening, couldn’t sustain itself, and was plain ignored.

Ungli (Rs 23 crore)
Even a star cast with the likes of Sanjay Dutt, Emraan Hashmi, Kangna Ranaut and Randeep Hooda didn’t help.
Shraddha Kapoor's dance number was added at the last moment. Audiences, though, chose to give it a pass.

Raja Natwarlal (Rs 29 crore)
They were reasonably confident about the film, which was designed as a smart thriller with many twists and turns.
The culprit was the characterisation of Kay Kay Menon, which many couldn't stomach, even though he acted well.
The songs didn't work at all, and that added to the film's woes.

Action Jackson (Rs 59 crore)
Despite the poor reviews, the film scored reasonably well in the single screens.
Multiplex audiences didn't fancy the Ajay Devgn starrer and the film soon disappeared.

Humshakals (Rs 65 crore)
The Sajid Khan film had a good opening; in fact one of the better ones this year.
But there was so much of a backlash against the Saif Ali Khan-Riteish Deshmukh-Ram Kapoor film that it just couldn't survive.
If not for the trolling on social media and other forums, it could have earned a few more crores, which would have landed it in the safe zone.
