This superstar is living in anonymity
Bollywood actor Rahul Roy became famous with his blockbuster film ‘Aashiqui’ in 1990. This film directed by Mahesh Bhatt proved to be a turning point in his life. In this film, Rahul worked with actress Anu Agarwal. Rahul Roy and Anu Agarwal made a special place in the chartbusters list with their superhit pair. Not only this, everyone became a fan of the actor after seeing his charming look and acting in his debut film. He became so famous that he was counted in the list of legendary stars even before the three Khans of Bollywood. Rahul Roy had achieved so much stardom at the age of 24 that people started praising him as soon as they heard his name. However, destiny had something else in store; his stardom was lost in a few years.
The actor signed 47 films and then suddenly disappeared
Actor Rahul Roy, who stayed in the industry for a long time and went away from the industry even after giving a hit debut, went from being a superstar to being included in the list of flop actors because he never gave a hit film after ‘Aashiqui’ and lost all his money. His films were not doing anything special at the box office. There was a time when he signed 47 films in just 11 days. These included films like ‘Gajaab Tamasha’, ‘Sapne Sajan Ke’, ‘Phir Teri Kahani Yaad Aayi’, ‘Gumrah’, ‘Naseeb’ and ‘Achanak’. Despite this, he is away from the industry today because these films of his could not make a splash at the box office.
From superstar to flop hero
The film ‘Aashiqui’ directed and produced by Mahesh Bhatt became a blockbuster and broke many records in Hindi cinema. From his debut film itself, Rahul Roy got the position that actors yearn for. Rahul Roy, one of the famous actors of the 90s, started doing side roles and after some time disappeared from the industry.
Made a Bollywood superstar from debut
Superhit songs like ‘Dheere Dheere’, ‘Nazar Ke Samne’, ‘Bas Ek Sanam Chahiye’ and ‘Jaane Jigar Jaaneman’ from the film ‘Aashiqui’ are still very famous. The music album of this film sold 20 million units and thus became the best-selling album of that time. Even today, the craze for this film, actor Rahul Roy and songs can be seen among the millennial people. Before ‘Aashiqui’, Rahul Roy was not a very famous actor. Even though the audience appreciated his acting in films like ‘Majhdhar’, ‘Dilwale Kabhi Na Hare’, ‘Pyar Ka Saaya’, ‘Junoon’ and ‘Jaanam’, he did not get much fame and success. However, ‘Aashiqui’ changed his life.
