Anil Kapoor's 'Lamhe': Box Office Flop to Cult Classic, Sank a Career

• Yash Chopra's 1991 film 'Lamhe', starring Anil Kapoor and Sridevi, was initially a box office disaster despite its unique story.
• Sridevi delivered a powerful dual performance as both mother Pallavi and daughter Pooja, earning widespread acclaim.
• The film's plot involved Virendra (Anil Kapoor) falling for Pallavi, who marries another, and later Pooja falling for the middle-aged Virendra.
• Deepak Malhotra, playing Pallavi's husband, received harsh criticism for his weak acting, which ultimately led to the downfall of his film career.
• Despite its initial failure and Yash Chopra's heartbreak, 'Lamhe' eventually gained 'cult classic' status and is still widely discussed today.
