Was Thugs of Hindostan disappointing? Yes, of course. With a huge star like Aamir Khan as the main lead, we expected nothing less than a blockbuster. There is a reason why Aamir is called Mr Perfectionist and a marketing genius. His last film, Dangal, is Bollywood's highest grossing film of all time. Thugs of Hindostan, produced by Yash Raj Films, is reportedly made on a budget of Rs 300 crore and is considered as Bollywood's most expensive film made to date. Not to mention, a very delectable cast in Aamir, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh. And yet the movie disappointed us with its risk-free content and box office performance. Thugs of Hindostan Movie Review: Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif's Pirate Saga Needed Less of Jack Sparrow Buffoonery and More of Amitabh Bachchan Badassery.

But was it bad? I mean to ask, was it the worst film Aamir Khan has done in his career? As a person who has seen some really bad movies of Aamir, I can say with enough confidence that this isn't the truth. Thugs of Hindostan, surely, ruins an interesting genre and cast but it is definitely better than Aamir and director Vijay Krishna Acharya's previous collaboration, Dhoom 3 (which, ironically, went on to be a huge blockbuster). Aamir Khan's Thugs of Hindostan, Salman Khan's Race 3 - 5 Hyped Movies That Audience Wrote Off Right From The First Trailer.

However, IMDB users beg to differ. Thugs of Hindostan has got Aamir Khan's lowest score on the site with a rating of 3.6.

Interestingly, the movie's rating is worse than some of Aamir Khan's actual stinkers like the below...

Mela (The One Where Aamir Hams Like There Is No Tomorrow)

Tum Mere Ho (The One Where Aamir Asks a Snake to Suck It!)

Aatank Hi Aatank (The One Where Aamir Khan plays Dongri ka Michael Corleone)

Awwal Number (The Cricket Movie Whose Sins Aamir Washes Away With Lagaan)

Jawani Zindabad (Who Was Aamir's Agent in the '90s?)

Baazi (The One Where Aamir Was in Drag)

Why, even Dhoom 3 scored a better rating than TOH...

Well, at least, Thugs of Hindostan did fare better than Race 3 that is sunk to a 2.1 rating.
