Correct Answer: To end in smoke

Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

The idiom "to end in smoke" means that something, like a plan or effort, fails to produce the expected or desired results and comes to nothing, which is exactly what happened with Geetika's movie when it failed in the theatres.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• "To give the devil his dues" means to acknowledge someone's good qualities or give credit where it's due. It is not relevant to the situation described.
• "To get into hot water" means to get into trouble or face difficulties, but it does not fit the context of the sentence.
• "To dig the grave" refers to making a situation worse, but it doesn't convey the idea of something ultimately failing without any significant results.
