Salman Khan has united with director Apoorva Lakhia, whose track record has been scary in the last 18 years. The filmmaker's last verified box office success of any kind was Shootout at Lokhandwala in 2007.
Here is his filmography and BO result: Haseena Parkar (2017): Flop/Disaster; Zanjeer (2013) / Toofan (Telugu version): Flop/Disaster; Mission Istaanbul (2008): Flop/Disaster; Dus Kahaniyaan (2007 - segment): Mixed result; Shootout at Lokhandwala (2007): This was his last film to receive a semi-hit verdict; Ek Ajnabee (2005): Flop; Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost (2003): Disaster.
If you think about it, Apoorva Lakhia can be called Bollywood's Puri Jagannadh. His film with Salman is titled Battle Of Galwan.
Salman Khan has had a string of films that haven't performed as expected at the box office, especially when compared to his earlier blockbusters. His recent film Sikandar was deemed an "underperformer". It was directed by AR Murugadoss.
