We're all about celebrating the best in Bollywood. But the best is so overrated. We really don't pay enough attention to what didn't work, what failed, flopped and the worst of the year. This year, we want to take a few minutes to give thanks to the people who helped us realize the best from the worst. Thank you for taking the effort to create....disaster!
Worst Hair: What the otherwise pretty Tanushree Dutta was thinking when she chopped her long tresses for this rather obscure cut, is beyond anyone. Her reasons are personal and spiritual but for an actress who is known for being quite fashionable, this was one big major fashion faux pas on her part. Here's hoping she goes back to a more stylish one that isn't so weird.
Worst Comeback: Sorry Karisma Kapoor, but your straight face and non-expressive acting really didn't cut in your comeback film Dangerous Ishkq. There was nothing dangerous about the film except the wretchedly boring story and your impact-less acting. For a powerhouse actress who in the past has jutted out some of the most fiery and top notch performances in the industry, what a letdown.
Worst Film: Shirish Kunder found himself in quite a tight spot with Joker. For starters, he believed he had a hit on his hands and thus, went on to make fun of Ra.One only to get slapped by SRK. Then Akshay Kumar decided to stay away from the sci-fi flick and when it hit cinemas, the only people who saw the film were most likely aliens who sat in their invisible form. Joker wins top prize at this 'Award Function'.
Worst Actress: Dear Farah Khan, you are not an actress. Shirin Farad Ki Toh Nikhal Padi is enough evidence.
Worst Actor: For an actor who can really wow you with his performances, Son of Sardaar wasn't Ajay Devgn's best performance. Definitely a performance he'd like to forget.
Worst Sequel: The deal with sequels is simple: don't make them. While her television serials may go on for years, Ekta Kapoor needs to understand that films are a totally different ball game. When Kya Super Kool Hai Hum released, we knew it was going to be a total leave-your-brains-at-home film. But what we didn't realize was the extent of nonsense that was going to be thrown our way. A sequel which makes the original look bad; that is Kya Super Kool Hai Hum.
Worst Onscreen Kiss: Why Katrina Kaif needed to kiss Shah Rukh Khan so many damn times in Jab Tak Hai Jaan, no one knows. But at least make the kiss somewhat believable! SRK has proven that he may be able to romance any actress onscreen, but the man cannot kiss. Let's leave the smooching to Emraan Hashmi, please.
Dumbest Controversy of 2012: Aside from all the Shah Rukh Khan hoopla that occurred this year, it was the Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's post pregnancy weight gain drama that somehow caught the eye of the paparazzi only to be blown extremely out of proportion. They speculated, mocked, poked fun and called her all sorts of names. Clearly, the media had nothing else of importance to discuss.
Worst Item Number: Congratulations Kareena Kapoor! You win the award for the worst item number this year vis-Ã -vis 'Dil Mera Muft' from Agent Vinod. So here's the deal. She's hot and a fabulous actress but Bebo is hardly the best dancer in the industry. And then you put her in a mujra number? It spells disaster from the get-go. In an attempt to appear 'different', Bebo comes out looking rather silly and totally ruins the mujhra mood.
