7 Indian Classics that were almost ruined by bad trailers
Share on FacebookShare on X

Trailers play a crucial role in generating anticipation and excitement for a movie’s release. However, in some cases, they can also have the opposite effect, dampening the enthusiasm for highly anticipated films. Here, we explore 7 Indian classics that were nearly ruined by poorly crafted trailers, leaving fans skeptical about the final product:

A Wednesday [2008]:

The bad trailer for “A Wednesday” (2008) almost marred the film’s prospects by failing to convey its gripping storyline and intense performances. However, the word-of-mouth appreciation for Naseeruddin Shah’s exceptional acting and the film’s thought-provoking narrative ultimately saved it from being overshadowed, propelling it to the status of a cult classic in Indian cinema.

Gangs of Wasseypur [2012]:

The trailer for Anurag Kashyap’s crime saga lacked coherence, leading some to believe it would be a convoluted mess. However, the film’s gritty storytelling and exceptional performances proved the naysayers wrong.

Queen [2014]:

The lackluster trailer for “Queen” (2014) initially failed to capture the film’s empowering journey of self-discovery and Kangana Ranaut’s career-defining performance. However, positive word-of-mouth and critical acclaim propelled it to success, becoming a beloved classic that resonated with audiences and celebrated the spirit of independent women. This was one rare moment when Indian audiences decided to not judge the film by its trailer, and felt proud for the same.

Dum Laga ke Haisha [2015]:

The underwhelming trailer for “Dum Laga Ke Haisha” (2015) initially failed to portray the film’s heartwarming tale of love and self-acceptance. Despite this setback, the endearing storyline and Ayushmann Khurrana-Bhumi Pednekar’s chemistry won audiences’ hearts, transforming it into a beloved classic that celebrates the beauty of unconventional love.

Drishyam [2015]:

Imagine if Lord Vijay Salgaonkar got defeated by a measly trailer. Yes, that’s almost what happened with the Hindi version of “Drishyam”, with almost no buzz in its support. The lackluster trailer for “Drishyam” (2015 Hindi version) initially failed to capture the film’s gripping suspense and powerful performances by Ajay Devgn and Tabu. However, word-of-mouth praise and critical acclaim helped it overcome the trailer’s shortcomings, turning it into a celebrated classic known for its masterful storytelling and memorable characters.

Kaabil [2017]:

The lackluster trailer for “Kaabil” (2017) initially failed to showcase the film’s compelling revenge plot and Hrithik Roshan’s remarkable performance. Despite this setback, positive word-of-mouth and Roshan’s acting prowess turned it into a well-received classic, that almost ruined the career of Shahrukh Khan for the next few years.

Karwaan [2017]:

The lackluster trailer for “Karwaan” (2018) failed to convey the film’s heartwarming road trip adventure and the endearing performances of Irrfan Khan, Dulquer Salmaan, and Mithila Palkar. Nevertheless, the film’s delightful storytelling and touching moments garnered critical acclaim, salvaging it from the initial setback and establishing it as a beloved classic in Indian cinema.

In the world of cinema, first impressions can make or break a film’s prospects. For these Indian classics, bad trailers initially left audiences doubtful about their potential. Fortunately, the movies transcended these initial setbacks, showcasing the power of compelling storytelling, outstanding performances, and timeless narratives to endure and become legendary masterpieces in Indian cinema.
