Laugh or Cry? Why The Lady Killer Became a Bollywood Disaster and Where You Can Watch It Now!
The Bollywood film The Lady Killer, starring Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, experienced a tumultuous journey since its release in November 2023. Initially hailed as a potential success, the film quickly floundered upon its theatrical release, failing to captivate audiences or achieve notable box office success. Despite a substantial production budget of ₹45 crore, The Lady Killer could barely muster ₹1 lakh in earnings. The cinematic venture's dismal performance marked it as a notable failure within the industry.

However, the film has resurfaced in an unexpected manner. Instead of making its way to popular streaming platforms like Netflix or Prime Video, The Lady Killer is now available on YouTube. This unconventional move has drawn considerable attention, albeit not for the reasons the filmmakers might have hoped. The film is hosted on T-Series' YouTube channel, where it is now accessible for free viewing. This decision has transformed the film into a peculiar sort of entertainment, as viewers flock to the platform, not only to watch the movie but to leave a plethora of amusing and critical comments in the YouTube comments section.
The shift to YouTube has not significantly altered the film’s reception. Despite being available for free, The Lady Killer continues to receive tepid reactions from audiences. The film's failure has become a source of considerable amusement online, with viewers expressing their opinions through engaging and often humorous commentary.

In contrast to the faltering reception of The Lady Killer, Arjun Kapoor's forthcoming projects present a different narrative. At the age of 39, Kapoor's career has been marred by a series of underwhelming releases. Nevertheless, he is poised for a potential turnaround with his upcoming role in Singham Again. Scheduled for a Diwali release, this film is directed by the renowned Rohit Shetty and features a star-studded ensemble including Ajay Devgn, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, and Tiger Shroff.
