The Hindi film industry has experienced a year full of ups and downs in 2022, with a number of films starring Bollywood A-listers performing surprisingly poorly at the box office. There are many causes for this, including the surge in OTT material since the epidemic and various boycott movements motivated by, among other things, nepotism and religion. Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha, Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt’s Shamshera, and Samrat Prithviraj and Rakshabandhan, starring Akshay Kumar all struggled at the box office, while South Indian or pan-Indian films like RRR, Pushpa: The Rise, Kantara, and K. G. F. Chapter 2 did remarkably well.
But there are some highly anticipated Bollywood movies with big stars and big budgets coming out in the coming year. The same are listed below.
1. Adipurush
Adipurush, a film directed by Om Raut, is based on the Ramayana, a work of Hindu mythology. Raghava, the ruler of Ayodhya, travels to the island of Lanka 7,000 years ago in the bilingual Telugu and Hindi film.
Kriti Sanon portrays Janaki, and Prabhas portrays Raghava (Lord Ram). Along with Sunny Singh as Lakshmana and Devdatta Nage as Hanuman, Saif Ali Khan plays the character of Lankesh. Vatsal Seth, Sonal Chauhan, and Trupti Toradmal are also present in the movie. With a budget of almost 250 crores, the movie is a contemporary adaptation of the epic that makes use of VFX and modern technology. The movie is expected to be released in theatres on June 16, 2023.
2. Pathaan
Shah Rukh Khan has returned after a four-year absence because his last movie, Zero, in which he co-starred in with Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif, performed poorly at the box office. For SRK fans, though, 2023 is expected to be a blast, thanks to the release of three films, including Pathaan, Jawan, and Dunki. Pathaan, which was directed by Siddharth Anand, also prominently featured John Abraham and Deepika Padukone. On January 25, 2023, the movie is expected to be released in theatres worldwide in several languages, including Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
