Ranbir Kapoor Hit and Flop Movies: Career Analysis

Kapoor’s career has experienced several commercial highs and lows. His debut film Saawariya (2007) failed at the box office, but he quickly gained recognition with Bachna Ae Haseeno and his three releases in 2009: Wake Up Sid, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and Rocket Singh.

Between 2010 and 2013, he delivered several successful films, including Raajneeti, Rockstar, Barfi! and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. However, the period from 2015 to 2017 was challenging, with films such as Bombay Velvet, Tamasha and Jagga Jasoos failing to meet commercial expectations.

His career received a major boost with Sanju in 2018, followed by Brahmastra in 2022 and Animal in 2023. While Shamshera underperformed, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar also added another commercially successful release to his filmography.

Overall, Ranbir’s career demonstrates his willingness to experiment with different characters and genres while maintaining his position as a leading Bollywood actor. Hit-or-flop verdicts depend on production budgets, distributor shares and theatrical earnings rather than collections alone.
