Priyanka's latest release Gunday is the newest entry on this list.
From winning beauty pageants to becoming one of Bollywood’s top heroines to making an international debut as singer; Priyanka Chopra’s career is filled with incomparable highs.
No wonder the 31-year-old shrugs, “I don’t know what it is not to be famous.”
At the same time, a glaring percentage of her filmography is filled with critically and commercially panned turkeys. And Ali Abbas Zafar’s Gunday co-starring Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor is the latest to join this list.
Dubbed as a 'mess' and 'garbage,' the recently released Yash Raj production may make its money but it’s another disappointment from the actress who hasn’t delivered anything brilliant since Anurag Basu’s Barfi!.
Spoiled for choice, here are some of the WORST movies of her career. Feel free to share your picks on the message board.
.
Plan
Priyanka lends mandatory glamour as a bar dancer intending to marry an underworld chap (Sanjay Dutt) to Hriday Shetty’s Plan.
The film itself is much too illogical to pay attention to her aspirations or the viewer’s intellect and patience.
Kismat
PC goes through the stereotypical routine as Bobby Deol’s love interest and a pop star sporting a hideous wardrobe in Kismat.
Don’t recall any such film? Don’t have to.
Unless you are writing an essay on when a film packed every possible Bollywood cliche in the book.
Asambhav
After directing sleek hits like Tridev, Mohra and Gupt, Rajiv Rai returns to direct the dreadfully bad, Asambhav.
Its foolish storyline; hammy performances and absence of a catchy soundtrack offer PC yet another mega flop of her early career.
Barsaat
Priyanka represents the regressive face of sacrifice in Suneel Darshan’s jarring love triangle completed by a selfish Bobby Deol and doltish Bipasha Basu.
Trust Bollywood to rope in two of its hottest and smartest beauties in one of the dumbest roles of their career.
Chamku
It’s hard to take anything called Chamku seriously. All the more when it’s a film as irking and ineffective as this one.
Barring Dostana, the pairing of Bobby Deol and PC has never worked. Chamku maintains that tradition.
Aap Ki Khatir
Playing as a scene-to-scene rip-off of Hollywood’s The Wedding Date isn’t Aap Ki Khatir’s only crime.
In this culture war of over exuberant Punjus and over the top Gujjus, humour is that thing to pop up even as Priyanka strives to salvage the show without success.
God Tussi Great Ho
Another lame remake that refuses to budge from below ordinary.
For starters, there’s Salman Khan doling out one of the crummiest performances of his career.
There’s also Sohail Khan who’s no good anyway.
Poor Priyanka’s sprinkle of chutzpah is hardly enough to save this dumbed down Bruce Almighty.
Drona
Though Priyanka impresses as the nimble and spirited bodyguard to a haggard Abhishek Bachchan, Drona fails to keep up with her charisma.
Goldie Bahl’s drab fantasy drama lacks the imagination and artistry to work a script that can go beyond the hilarious or the bizarre.
Love Story 2050
It came, it saw, it crumbled.
A romance set in the future, Love Story 2050 is just so inexplicably and outrageously bad from every angle -- scripting, acting, direction, aesthetics, soundtrack down to PC’s flaming red hair and co-star with a Hrithik Roshan look-alike.
Pyaar Impossible
Two many Chopras can spoil the broth.
Priyanka and Uday Chopra team up in the gorgeous meets geek romance. Only the pair’s zero chemistry and Jugal Hansraj’s shabby script make it impossible to show any love for this two-hours long bore.
Zanjeer
While her other Amitabh Bachchan remakes like Agneepath and Don hit box office gold, Zanjeer was a mega embarrassment for all concerned.
Priyanka’s grating delivery as the chatty, chirpy girlfriend was everything but cute.
