When Anubhav Sinha Made Shocking Comments On Shah Rukh Khan’s Ra.One’s Underperformance: “Industry People Wanted Him To Flop Once”

Shah Rukh Khan is King Khan for a reason. The actor, no matter how many times he fails, never gives up on producing and acting in some fresh stories. His Ra.One was one such unique experiment, which sadly underperformed at the box office. Speaking about the same, director Anubhav Sinha had once made shocking comments.

For the unversed, Ra.One was made at a budget of over 100 crores. It got trolled for its weak screenplay and half-baked plot. However, no matter how much criticism it received, the film did bring revolution to the Indian film industry as far as VFX work is concerned. It raised the standard of technicality. The film got viewers divided into two groups- hardcore haters and hardcore lovers.

Once, while talking on The Slow Interview with Neelesh Mishra, director Anubhav Sinha revealed that during Ra.One there was a wave of negativity in the industry. He said that most of the industry people, even Shah Rukh Khan’s own friends, wanted the star to flop once. Anubhav said that he doesn’t know the reason but the negativity was quite visible.
