Conclusion

Hit or flop, Bollywood is always there. So far, countless films have been made in Bollywood, which have earned quite a lot at the box office. Similarly, many films have not seen success despite good storylines. But do you know that 3 films have been made in Bollywood which had the same name, and all three flopped at the box office. This strange coincidence happened in the case of three films named ‘Karz’.

In 1980, director Subhash Ghai made a film named ‘Karz’. Rishi Kapoor, Simi Garewal, and Tina Munim played the lead roles. Although the songs of the film were very popular, the film did not do business at the box office at all. After that, in 2002, Sunny Deol’s ‘Karz: The Burden of Truth’ was released. It was an action thriller. Suniel Shetty and Shilpa Shetty were also seen in this film. But despite having multiple stars, the film was able to earn only Rs 15.57 crores.

The third film was made in 2008. Himesh Reshammiya made a remake of ‘Karz’. The remake was also named ‘Karz,’ as usual. However, an extra ‘Z’ was added to the English spelling. But the extra letter did not change the fate. The film was a super flop. After this film, actress Urmila Matondkar‘s career almost ended.
