The only super flop film produced by Vijay Mallya, 6 stars cheated, lost Rs 4 crore, lead actors are…, film is…
The name of this movie, which was released 21 years ago, is 'Rakt'. This movie was released in 2004. This supernatural horror movie had not one or two but 6 stars. The movie was directed by Mahesh V Manjrekar and produced by Vijay Mallya along with Sunil Shetty.
According to the news published in the Indian Express, Vijay Mallya co-produced the film along with Sunil Shetty. Sunil even worked as an actor in the film. Apart from Sunil Shetty, it also featured Bipasha Basu, Dino Morea, Sanjay Dutt, Neha Dhupia and Amrita Arora.
The story of this film is of Bipasha Basu who is playing the role of Drishti Nair. Drishti has such power that she can see the future through playing cards. Drishti's relationship breaks and she goes to live in a small village. Where she meets Mohit whose role is played by Sunil Shetty. He is a mechanic and he needs mental treatment. Because his father has tortured him a lot since childhood.
The budget of this film was 12 crores, whereas the film collected only Rs 8 crore. This means that the makers suffered a loss of 4 crores in making this film. Vijay Mallya had a very strong plan in the film production line. But after seeing the bad condition of the film, Mallya gave up.
While talking to Economic Times, Vijay Mallya had said- 'We have a big plan to invest in films.' The special thing is that Ratan Tata invested money in films at that time. His company made the film 'Aitbaar' with Bipasha, John Abraham, and Amitabh Bachchan. However, Ratan Tata also suffered a huge loss in this film and never invested money in films again. The same happened with Mallya. After suffering a huge loss, he turned away from the film line. This film also got a rubbish rating of 3.8 on IMDb.
