Films like Jug Jugg Jeeyo and Rocky Aur Rani failed to connect widely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Unlike YRF, which adapted to newer tastes, Dharma kept banking on outdated tropes. Reliance on packaging and star power, rather than strong scripts or directors, weakened their projects.<\/p>\n<p>Karan Johar\u2019s larger than life persona became both an asset and a liability.

Lavish budgets were spent on weak films like Kalank and Brahm\u0101stra, while repeatedly pushing in house stars who lacked true box office pull. These choices left Dharma struggling for relevance today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dharma Productions was once a trendsetter in Bollywood, defining glossy romance and aspirational drama through the late \u201990s&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":178449,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[50005,171,54941,53,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-178448","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-dharma-productions","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-karan-johar","11":"tag-movies","12":"tag-united-states","13":"tag-unitedstates","14":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115098070900509957","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178448","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=178448"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/178448\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/178449"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178448"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=178448"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=178448"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
