Bollywood stars are humans too! They make mistakes and not all films they sign are the path-breaking, career-changing ones. Every celeb has at least one film that they regret doing or even more. Here's looking at such stars who openly named the films that they regret doing. To start with, we have Saif Ali Khan who once said that he regretted doing Humshakals directed by Sajid Khan. It was a box office dud and in an interview with ToI, Saif said, 'The film was very regressive. In fact, while watching it, I asked myself what I was doing in it. I knew I had let my fans down and underestimated their intelligence. I've been introspecting a lot and will never repeat the mistake that was ‘Humshakals’.'

Shahid Kapoor

Shahid Kapoor has been a part of many critically acclaimed films like Kaminey, Udta Punjab, Jab We Met and more. But he too regrets doing certain films. Shandaar along with Alia Bhatt tops the list. In an interview with Filmfare, when asked if there is any film that he regretted doing, Shahid said, Shaandaar being the first in that list. Chup Chup Ke maybe I wouldn't want to do and maybe Vaah! Life Ho To Aisi ---because I think it was trying to be an international film and we didn't have the kind of expertise to do that kind of computer graphics.

Katrina Kaif

Katrina Kaif entered Bollywood with a film called Boom. It had many bold scenes and it is definitely a film that Katrina regretted doing. In an interview, she stated that she wasn't aware of Indian's culture and environment or else she would have not picked up a film like that. To TOI, she said, When I signed the film, I was not aware of the Indian culture and tradition. Had I known that aspect of India, I would not have done the film. I would not do anything like that again. And if this means that I won’t get to do films anymore, I won’t, especially if filmmakers expect me to do all the stuff that they see in ‘Boom’.

Abhay Deol

In an old interview, Abhay Deol had spoken about Aisha and openly stated that the film was only about clothes and nothing more. The movie had nothing to do with Jane Austen’s Emma as it was reported. When I was shooting, I realised that the film was more about clothes than actual acting. I even read reviews of the movie that praised the clothes. I would like to say today that I will never ever be part of a film like Aisha in my lifetime. It’s not the kind of film I’d like to do, he had said.

Ajay Devgn

Ajay Devgn had somewhat similar views about his film Himmatwala. In an interview, he had revealed that he had not seen the film at all as he got the feeling that wasn't very good. In a press meet, he had once said, 80 per cent of the times, I have come to know while shooting that the film won’t work. I have not seen those films during the trial shows. I have not seen Himmatwala and Rascals till today. You get that feeling.
