Four films made with the same name in 80 years
This has happened many times in Bollywood, when a film proves to be successful at the box office, then the filmmakers bet on that title again or make films with similar names. However, the story, cast and everything of these films are different. The only thing that is similar is the title. From ‘Barsaat’ to ‘Raaz’, there are some titles of films on which many films have been made. Sometimes this formula proves to be a hit and sometimes a flop. In such a situation, the makers do not even get the amount invested in the film. Something similar happened with director Gyan Mukherjee’s film also. Which was made four times with a successful film title but out of these four, only one worked at the box office and the remaining three could not do anything amazing. This film has been made 4 times in 80 years. So let us tell you about this film title.
The first film named Kismat was released in 1945.
Here we are talking about films made with the name ‘Kismat’. The first film named Kismat came in the year 1943, in which Ashok Kumar and Mumtaz Shanti were seen together in the lead roles.
