Baaghi: Bollywood's Risky Title Gamble - 10 Films, Only 3 Hits
- •The film title 'Baaghi' has been used for 10 Bollywood films, but only three achieved box office success.
- •Salman Khan's 1990 film, Baaghi: A Rebel for Love, was a blockbuster, establishing him as an action-romantic hero.
- •Early 'Baaghi' films (1939, 1953, 1964) and those in the 2000s (2000, 2005) largely failed despite featuring stars like Sanjay Dutt and Om Puri.
- •Tiger Shroff revived the title with Baaghi (2016) and Baaghi 2 (2018) becoming hits, showcasing his action hero image.
- •Baaghi 3 (2020) and Baaghi 4 (2025) flopped, proving that a popular title alone doesn't guarantee success.
Why It Matters: The 'Baaghi' title highlights that a film's name alone cannot guarantee Bollywood success.
