<span class=normal>2003<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>This was the time period when Abhishek Bachchan was struggling hard. Really hard. He was in need of a hit, something that was eluding him for long. A rustic attempt like Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost promised something exciting for Abhishek but that didnt turn out to be the case as the film failed at the box office. There were just no takers for this film despite Lara Dutta adding on to the glamour quotient. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Meanwhile for Amitabh Bachchan, there were two releases this year which were embarrassing to say the least. Boom was an epic vulgar disaster that happens only once in a decade and it was totally out of question for Amitabh Bachchans fans to give it a nod of approval after they saw it. To begin with, they gave the film a rousing reception, courtesy some striking visuals and three striking babes. However, the word of mouth was out and out negative on the first day itself, something that pushed the film out of business before first week came to a close. Fact One: Katrina Kaif made her debut with this film. Fact Two: This is one of the only 2-3 flops that she has given in her career so far. </span>
