8. Pakeezah (1972)
Kamal Amrohi made it for his wife, Meena Kumari, but their marriage broke down in 1964 and filming stalled for years. When it resumed, Kumari was in poor health. The film became a classic, but she died weeks after release.
10. Karma (1986)
Reports said crew members were injured, equipment failed and footage was lost, forcing reshoots. No single disaster, but each setback fed whispers that the film was jinxed.
