Does my PhD thesis will be approved if I select a very common topic?

What if the topic of research on which I have prepared my PhD research work is very common? Does that make the chances of my research work getting rejected by the targeted journal high?

Yes, the selected journal(s) are likely to reject your paper since it has a common topic and not a groundbreaking approach. You must narrow down the topic from your field of interest and work within that specific area for a higher and better chance of acceptance.
