Abhishek Bachchan is one of the well-known actors in the Bollywood industry. Throughout his career, he has delivered some hit films. However, there was one movie that turned out to be the biggest disaster of his career, flopping badly at the box office.

Despite having big names, including Jaya Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, and Kay Kay Menon, the movie was a disaster on the big screen.

The film witnessed such low occupancy in theaters that it failed to recover its budget. While Abhishek played the lead role of a superhero, the movie failed to impress the audience. If you are wondering which movie we are talking about, the film in discussion is Drona.

Released in 2008 and helmed by Goldie Behl, who is also a good friend of Junior Bachchan, Drona featured Jaya Bachchan as Abhishek's mother. This was the first time the mother-son duo played the same roles on the big screen.

Apart from these two, the movie also featured Priyanka Chopra as the lead actress. The film's special effects were worked on by EyeQube, headed by Charles Darby and David Bush. Bachchan's movie also showcased martial arts, including Kalaripayattu, Chhau, Gatka, and sword fighting.

A total of 60 VFX experts worked on the film, and it took them more than six months and 250 visual effects artists, animators, designers, painters, and developers to complete the movie. Despite being made with such care and experienced professionals, the film failed to perform well in theaters.

The budget of Drona was Rs 45 crore, but it earned less than Rs 15 crore at the box office. Not only that, but people also didn't like the pairing of Abhishek and Priyanka on screen.
