Sridevi in and as Chaand Kaa Tukdaa (1994).
And this is news even to us; the film was not that big a dud... who knew?!
Royally written off as a massive flop, the Salman Khan and Sridevi starrer was absolutely hated by critics and... TBH... even most hardcore Sridevi and Salman fans could barely finish watching the long yawn... er, yarn.
Let's give credit to their cumulative star power, the initial draw helped the producers and distributors as the movie broke even - in fact, it even recovered some money in certain pockets. Made in a budget of Rs2.75 crore, at final tally, the movie made Rs3.88 crore back in the summer of 1994.
A huge sum back then. Now of course those numbers seem miniscule; Salman Khan alone makes about Rs220 crore a year these days (according to online reports)!
