A film with Shah Rukh Khan is nothing short of a dream. King Khan's name is enough to ensure that the film becomes a box office success. However, it has not always been the case. Back in the days, Shah Rukh Khan too has tasted failure. Not all his films earned massive money. THIS one film of Shah Rukh Khan led to the downfall of another actor.
The star is Fardeen Khan. Feroz Khan's son made his Bollywood debut with Prem Aggan that released in 1998. He also won the Best Debut Award for the same. However, his career did not fly off as expected.
The actor then appeared in films like Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya, Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega, No Entry, Shaadi No 1, Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena, Pyare Mohan and many others. Some were hit but others were major flops.
In 2010, he appeared in a movie called Dulha Mil Gaya. It was directed by Mudassar Aziz and starred Sushmita Sen in as the leading lady. Shah Rukh Khan also made a special appearance in the movie.
However, the film couldn't do well at the box office. It was called a box office disaster. Reportedly, it was made on a budget of Rs 22 crore, but it barely made any money.
Fardeen Khan then took a hiatus. The actor disappeared from films. He did not sign up any other project for almost 14 years.
Fardeen Khan made a comeback to acting only in 2024. He starred in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's web series Heeramandi. He was then also seen in Khel Khel Mein.
Post his comeback, Fardeen Khan spoke about his hiatus and return. He said 'I'm very grateful for the chances I have been given and for the belief people have had in me and offered me the work that I have. You know, I took a long gap, and I wasn't sure if I was going to have a job, so I had some nice movies,' to a news agency.
