Shah Rukh Khan continues to be one of the biggest and influential Indian stars over the last three decades. He has consistently proved his mettle as an actor with numerous box office hits and captivating performances. But like every other superstar, there are some box office bombs amid his superhits. In 1995, Shah Rukh Khan had seven film releases, and among there were massive hits like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Karan Arjun , along with semi hits like Guddu and Ram Jaane . However, it was his final release of the year that proved to be the biggest flop of his career. The film was Mukul Anand's Trimurti , that saw Jacky Shroff and Anil Kapoor too in pivotal roles. Bankrolled by Subhash Ghai, the film was mounted on a budget of Rs 11 crore, the biggest for an Indian film at the time. Moreover, it even surpassed the record of Shanti and Ajooba for being the most expensive Indian film. Released on December 22, 1995, the film had earned Rs 1 crore on day 1 at Indian box office, a record-breaking opening for any Indian film. However, bad reviews and negative word of mouth led to the film's downfall and impacted overall collections. In the end, Trimurti's final earnings were just Rs 9 crore, less than its budget. Despite the massive star power, the film couldn't be saved and was disappeared from theatres in just two weeks. Trimurti was the last release of filmmaker Mukul S Anand, who passed away due to heart attack while filming for Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt-starrer Dus in 1997. Anand is known for his previous hit directorial projects such as Agneepath, Hum, Khuda Gawah, Sultanat, and Insaaf.

THIS film was Shah Rukh Khan's Rs 11-crore disaster: Film bombed, one co-star went to jail, another received threats
In 1995, Shah Rukh Khan, Jackie Shroff, and Anil Kapoor starred in Trimurti, a highly anticipated action film. Despite a record-breaking opening, the movie quickly flopped due to poor reviews, becoming one of Bollywood's most expensive failures. Casting issues and behind-the-scenes drama further plagued the film, which was also the last completed project of director Mukul Anand. At the peak of his stardom in 1995, Shah Rukh Khan teamed up with Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor for Trimurti—a film backed by big names and an even bigger budget. Touted as a sure-shot blockbuster, it opened to record-breaking numbers but quickly crashed due to poor reviews and word of mouth. What was meant to be a cinematic triumph turned into one of Bollywood's most expensive flops. SRK at the Height of His Powers In 1995, Shah Rukh Khan was riding high on a wave of back-to-back successes. With Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Karan Arjun turning into massive blockbusters and Guddu earning the label of a semi-hit, SRK had firmly cemented his position as the top draw at the box office. By December, even Ram Jaane had emerged as a hit, further solidifying his dominance. A Big-Budget Dream with a Star-Studded Cast So when he teamed up with Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor for Mukul Anand's Trimurti, expectations skyrocketed. The star-studded action film was touted as a casting coup and came with enormous hype. Backed by Subhash Ghai's production house, Trimurti was mounted on a staggering budget of Rs 11 crore—making it the most expensive Indian film at the time, surpassing previous record-holders Shanti Kranti and Ajooba. A Record-Breaking Opening… and a Quick Crash Trimurti hit theatres on December 22 with sky-high expectations—and it delivered a record-breaking start. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The film opened to a historic Rs 1 crore on day one in India, the biggest opening for any Indian film at the time. Its global opening weekend haul crossed Rs 5 crore, and all signs pointed to a blockbuster in the making. However, the dream run was short-lived. Despite the grand opening, Trimurti quickly collapsed at the box office. Poor reviews and negative word of mouth led to a sharp decline in footfalls, and within weeks, the film had vanished from theatres. In the end, Trimurti managed to collect less than Rs 9 crore in India—falling short of its Rs 11 crore budget. According to India Today, the film had been sold at an eye-popping Rs 2 crore per territory, leading to losses of over Rs 6 crore. What started as a surefire hit ended up being one of the most costly misfires in Bollywood history. Casting Chaos Behind the Scenes Trimurti was originally set to feature Shah Rukh Khan, Jackie Shroff, and Sanjay Dutt in the lead. In fact, Dutt had already shot a few scenes before he was sentenced to prison in connection with the 1993 Mumbai blasts case. With Dutt out, director Mukul Anand turned to Aditya Pancholi to fill the role. However, producer Subhash Ghai had a different vision—he pushed for Anil Kapoor, who eventually landed the part. The casting change didn't sit well with Pancholi, who reportedly began making threatening phone calls to Anil Kapoor over losing the role. The situation escalated to the point where the police had to intervene. Pancholi ultimately apologised, bringing an end to the off-screen drama that nearly overshadowed the film itself. A Bittersweet Legacy for Mukul Anand Trimurti holds a bittersweet place in Bollywood history as the last completed film of acclaimed director Mukul Anand, who tragically passed away in 1997 while filming Dus. That project was ultimately shelved, leaving Trimurti as his final release. The film also featured notable performances by Priya Tendulkar, Mohan Agashe, and Anjali Jathar in pivotal roles. While Trimurti failed to make a mark at the box office, its music struck a chord with audiences. Composed by the legendary duo Laxmikant-Pyarelal, the soundtrack featured six songs, with 'Very Good Very Bad' and 'Bol Bol Bol' emerging as chartbusters that continue to be remembered fondly.

Jackie Shroff recalls seeing Shah Rukh Khan's ‘akelapan' during Devdas, King Uncle: ‘Akele kone mein baitha…'
Bollywood actors Jackie Shroff and Shah Rukh Khan are among the few outsiders who made it big in the industry. The two have also worked together in several hits like Happy New Year, Devdas and more. In an interview with Vickey Lalwani, Jackie spoke about how he saw Shah Rukh being aloof during the shoot of King Uncle. He further talked about being lonely at the top. Jackie Shroff opens up on working with Shah Rukh Khan in Devdas and King Uncle. When asked about what he observed in Shah Rukh's growth from King Uncle to Devdas, Jackie recalled SRK playing his younger brother in King Uncle and said, "Akelapan. Har actor ko ek lonely feel hona chahiye, mere ko bola tha ye kisi ne. So I saw him sitting out there, on his own. He was playing my younger brother. And he was respectful, focused on his work, he was charismatic, he was charming. But aloof. Like I was aloof, he also aloof. I liked those vibes (Loneliness. Every actor should experience a sense of loneliness, someone once told me that. I saw him sitting there alone. He was playing my younger brother. He was respectful, focused, charismatic, but aloof. Just like I was aloof, he was too. I liked that vibe)." He then spoke about working with him on Devdas and said, "Devdas se pehle bhi humne kayi films ki. One 2 Ka Four kiya aur ek-do films aur. Par Devdas mein normal tha. Mere liye toh mera bhai tha, chhota bhai jo maine dekha. Wohi ladka jo maine dekha tha ki akele kone mein baitha hai. Role bhi waisa tha Devdas ka, aur main jaisa hoon waisa hi tha uske saath (We had done several films before Devdas, One 2 Ka Four and a couple of others. But on Devdas, he was the same. For me, he was still my younger brother. The same boy I had once seen sitting quietly in a corner. Even the role of Devdas suited that vibe. And I was the same with him as I always had been)," admiting that it's lonely at top. Shah Rukh and Jackie have worked together in several films like Trimurti, King Uncle, One 2 Ka 4, Devdas and Happy New Year, among others. If reports are to be believed, Jackie and SRK are all set to work together again in Siddharth Anand's directorial, King. The film also stars Suhana Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Saurabh Shukla, and reports suggest that Anil Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Rani Mukerji and Deepika Padukone have also joined the cast.
