News India Live, Digital Desk: Bollywood is often called the world of hopes and dreams, but it is also a place where every Friday someone’s luck is made and someone else’s is broken. Exactly 23 years ago, on November 5, 2002, a similar film was released, whose fate was so bad that today no one even wants to remember it. The hero of the film had a superhit name like ‘Mohabbatein’, and there was also a face in the film which every child recognizes today, but for some other reason.
Could you recognize this actor seen in the picture? Let us tell. This is none other than Sharad Sankla, who plays the character of ‘Abdul’ in ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’. Yes, Abdul, one of the most favorite characters of TV today, had once tried his luck on the big screen as well.
What was that ‘MahaDisaster’ movie?
the name of the movie was “We fell in love with you”As romantic as the name was, its performance at the box office was equally terrible. The hero of the film was Jugal Hansraj, who had become a well-known face with films like ‘Papa Kehte Hain’ and ‘Mohabbatein’. His heroine was Tina Rana, whose debut film this was.
Why was the film such a big flop?
After the success of ‘Mohabbatein’, it was expected that Jugal Hansraj’s career would reach great heights, but it could not happen. “Hum Pyar Tumhiin Se Kar Baithe” was a very ordinary and clichéd love story, which was completely rejected by the audience. There was neither any strength in the story nor any magic in the acting in the film.
The result was that despite big names, the film flopped badly at the box office. According to reports, leave aside the entire cost of the film, the total only 13 lakh rupees It was able to earn only Rs. 100,000, which was a major disaster even at that time.
‘Abdul’s struggle and today’s success
Sharad Sankla i.e. our beloved Abdul also had a small role in this film. This film was lost in the darkness of oblivion, but Sharad Sankla continued his struggle. Years later, when he got the role of Abdul in ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’, his luck shone such that today he has become a part of every household.
This story tells us that no one’s career in Bollywood is decided by just one hit or flop. A stardom hero like Jugal Hansraj is almost missing from the industry today, and a small-time actor from the same flop film, Sharad Sankla, is today a big name in the world of television.
