2018: Bollywood stars who desperately need to give a HIT

Ranbir Kapoor

The Kapoor scion, Ranbir Kapoor who is an eye-candy for a millions of people unfortunately couldn't deliver a hit flick this year. The actor faced a lull period after plenty of his movies, inlcuding but not limited to 'Besharam', 'Bombay Velvet' and 'Tamasha' flopped. Last year though, he managed a hit in the form of Karan Johar's 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil'. But this year, his movie 'Jagga Jasoos' with Katrina Kaif wherein he turned a producer too failed miserably at the box office incurring loss for the actor. Now, it all depends on the Sanjay Dutt biopic and his upcoming trilogy 'Brahmastra' with Alia Bhatt. Will he manage to resurrect his box office standing in 2018? Only time will tell.

Kangana Ranaut

The feisty and frank Kangana Ranaut is a one woman army who has managed to deliver hits with movies relying solely on her shoulders. Be it the 'Tanu Weds Manu' franchise or 'Queen', Kangana has delivered hits with her impeccable acting skills. However this year, two of her movies 'Rangoon' and 'Simran' failed to impress the audiences adding to immense pressure on the actress. She has been prepping up for 'Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi' which releases next year. She has undergone hardcore training for this character and all hopes are pinned on the movie. So, let's see if the actress manages to revive her position with this mythological flick next year.

Sushant Singh Rajput

Barely six movies old in B-Town, actor Sushant Singh Rajput has managed to make it to the A-listers of Bollywood and the major credit for the same goes to the superhit movie 'M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story' which released last year. One movie and Sushant was all around. So, everybody was anticipating another blockbuster from the actor in the form of 'Raabta' this year which paired him opposite rumoured girlfriend Kriti Sanon. Sadly, their hot chemistry couldn't save the fate of the movie. The actor needs a hit desperately now and we hope his upcoming movies like 'Chanda Mama Door Ke' and 'Kedarnath' manage to provide him with a much needed hit.

Saif Ali Khan

Tha nawab has been in the industry for quite a long time. However, the last few years haven't been great for the actor professionally as many of his movies have flopped year-by-year. This year was no different as two of his movies 'Rangoon' and 'Chef' flopped. Now, it all depends on his next two projects 'Kaalakaandi' and 'Baazaar'. Will they manage to save his dwindling career? Let's wait and watch.

Sidharth Malhotra

Actor Sidharth Malhotra had a smashing debut with 'Student Of The Year' in 2012. But post his big break, the actor has faced ups and downs in terms of his movies failing to impress the audiences. His last prominent hit was 'Kapoor & Sons' in 2016, but that had an ensemble cast. Post that, none of his movies, be it 'Baar Baar Dekho' or 'A Gentleman' managed to wow the audiences. However, 'Ittefaq' brought a respite, but it too was a lukewarm hit and not a massive one which can balance the career of this handsome lad. Sidharth has 'Aiyaary' in his kitty now which is releasing in the beginning of 2018. Will the movie manage to get him a hit flick in his pocket?

Sonakshi Sinha

Actress Sonakshi Sinha had a great debut opposite Salman Khan in 'Dabangg', and even gave many more hits like 'Rowdy Rathore', 'Dabangg 2', to name a few, but these movies had superstars like Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar pairing up with the starlet. She hasn't yet managed to deliver a solo hit in spite of being a part of movies like 'Akira', 'Noor' which relied solely on her shoulders. Though 'Ittefaq' did manage to garner a good response, but was not the superhit that can save her career. The actress heavily needs a hit to her credit. She has the sequel of 'Happy Bhag Jayegi' in her kitty, so let's see if this entertainer works in her favour.

Aditya Roy Kapur

After working in supporting roles in movies like 'London Dreams' and 'Action Replayy', Aditya Roy Kapur delivered his first ever hit with 'Aashiqui 2' in 2013. The same year, he saw another hit in the form of 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani'. But, his movies post that didn't manage to impress the audiences. This year, his movie 'OK Jaanu' released, but it couldn't do much for his career. This man desperately needs a big hit to position himself in the A-Listers of Bollywood.
