\"When Rakesh Roshan\u2019s film \u2018Koyla\u2019 which starred Shah Rukh Khan<\/a> and Madhuri Dixit<\/a>, did not perform well at the box office. This came as a shock to people since the film had such a star cast. It had released in 1997, two years after Shah Rukh Khan attained immense stardom with \u2018Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge\u2019 in 1995. As \u2018Koyla\u2019 flopped, Rakesh Roshan was quite disheartened and reports suggested that he blamed Madhuri Dixit for the film\u2019s failure. There were reports that Roshan blamed Madhuri Dixit allegedly saying she wasn\u2019t “pretty enough” to win over the audience. This comment didn\u2019t go down well with many, including Madhuri herself. <\/p>\n

In an old interview with Komal Nahta on ETC Bollywood, Hrithik Roshan<\/a> opened up about how his father, Rakesh Roshan, was deeply affected when their film Koyla didn\u2019t do well at the box office. Despite having Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit in the lead roles, the film, made on a \u20b912 crore budget, only managed to earn \u20b928 crore worldwide. Hrithik revealed that the failure took an emotional toll on his father, who had invested a large part of his savings into the film. He shared that Rakesh Roshan cried three times in his life, and the first time was because of Koyla\u2019s failure. The \u2018Krrish\u2019 actor had said, \u201cEk aur time tha jab Koyla ke baad, there was some problem in the house. He had lost all his money, whatever he had earned. Kuch kuch he had invested woh bhi gayab ho gaye aur kisi ko paise diye the woh bhaag gaya.” Interestingly, the same year, Madhuri won the Best Actress award for ‘Dil Toh Pagal Hai’, which also starred Shah Rukh Khan and Karisma Kapoor. While accepting the award, she said she wanted to dedicate it to her \u201cso-called critics\u201d who thought she should quit acting \u2014 a remark that many felt was a subtle response to Rakesh Roshan\u2019s alleged comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rakesh Roshan\u2019s film \u2018Koyla\u2019 which starred Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit, did not perform well at the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":33501,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[27895,27897,88,27898,27896,27894,27899,206,27893,4745],"class_list":["post-33500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-1997-bollywood-film-koyla","tag-dil-toh-pagal-hai","tag-entertainment","tag-hrithik-roshan","tag-hrithik-roshan-koyla","tag-koyla-movie-failure","tag-madhuri-dixit","tag-movies","tag-rakesh-roshan-madhuri-dixit-controversy","tag-shah-rukh-khan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=33500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33500\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=33500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=33500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=33500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
