In fact, he dies making the audience laugh, and people think the death of the clown is planned, and he will wake up doing his gigs to scare the audience.
Special:
The movie Andaz Apna Apna is one of the best comedy movies you might have watched, and the movie receives great TRP even today when it showed on Television but the response movie got when released was not good at all.
There is no specific reason why the movie failed in the 1990’s, but the fact was people didn’t accept this comedy.
The rumors of making Andaz Apna Apna -2 are making the rounds, but I hope the second part can live up to the expectation and quality of humor 1990’s Andaz Apna Apna has given.
Special:
This great movie suffered failure because it was badly promoted. The lack of promotion and wrong promotion led to the failure of this great movie at the Box Office. Although Ranbir was highly acclaimed for his role in the movie.
Rocket Singh also lacked good music but none the less when the movie premiered at Television, it left the makes surprised and shocked as the movie was a great Hit at Small Screen.
They might have realized the error in their promotion strategies due to which they might have suffered the loss as well.
Special:
Pyar Ka Punchnama was a low budget movie with a new star cast, audiences couldn't find many reasons to go for the movie.
Lack of proper promotion was also the reason, BUT as soon as the movie hit the small screen the response was awesomely amazing. The TRP was way much than expected and the movie took away everyone’s breath.
The youth loved the movie, Movie was declared below average in first 2 weeks, but later from the mouth publicity film got an amazing response in 3rd week and declared as a surprise hit.
Special:
Dark Comedy Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro[/caption]
The movie which still one of the Best Dark comedy movies was a Flop at the box office when released. And the reason was very simple because the team didn't have many funds for promotion and that's reflected in the Box Office charts.

Special:
Pakeezah took 14 years to complete and it is believed that this could be the biggest reason the movie didn't work. The movie was all about Meena Kumari, her innocent face, her charm her awe.
It was like this movie was meant only for her. She performed amazingly but she left the world soon after the movie was released.
The movie was about a courtesan, A Tawaif who dreams of a better life. She falls in love with a stranger during a train journey. All she knows about that stranger is nothing and all that the stranger knows about her is her beautiful feet.
Special:
Remake of the popular Hit Tamil Film Minnale, but North Indians found the movie story very simple and lack of promotion didn't give the movie much wanted exposure.
