Just like every actor has a blend of hits and flops in their career, the directors also have their fair share of directing brilliant gems and epic failures, throughout their careers. Today, we have compiled the list of the highest and lowest rated movies of several directors, according to the IMDb ratings. Read on.
1. Karan Johar
Without a doubt, My Name Is Khan had to be on top of this list. But, did you know that Student Of The Year was his lowest-rated movie?
Highest Rated: My Name Is Khan – 8.0
Lowest Rated: Student Of The Year – 5.2
2. Vivek Agnihotri
With a gripping storyline and an interesting starcast, The Tashkent Files is one of Agnihotri’s finest movies, with a rating higher than even the recently popular The Kashmir Files. However, Junooniyat is a movie that we’ll never watch, ever.

Lowest Rated: Junooniyat – 4.2

Highest Rated: Black – 8.2
Lowest Rated: Saawariya – 5.2

Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, the movie that lives rent-free in our hearts and souls, is one of the best movies of all time. It’s pretty shocking that Dil Dhadakne Do was her lowest-rated movie!
Highest Rated: Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara – 8.2
Lowest Rated: Dil Dhadakne Do – 7.0
5. Anurag Kashyap
We were fortunate to have witnessed the horror-comedy, Black Friday. Also, do you remember watching Bombay Velvet?

Lowest Rated: Cash – 3.4
7. Rajkumar Hirani
3 Idiots, the movie which gave us countless memes and foot-tapping music, is one of the finest movies ever made. With an amazing starcast and picturesque backdrops, this movie had to be his highest-rated movie. Even though Sanju has a great rating as well, it was the lowest-rated movie of his career.

Lowest Rated: Tubelight – 4.0

Undeniably one of the best and most loved movies of all time, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge had to be on top for him. However, he has also directed Befikre, a movie everyone involved, including the audience, would much rather forget.
