One observation about this guy's films is that after his first flop Saawariya, none of his films have taken him back. Instead each film of his has taken him ahead, ahead and away. And he seems to have no signs of stopping down.
He is young, tall, good-looking, good-dancer and a complete actor.
Imran on the other hand, the less I talk about him, the better. But one thing I want to add is on the top of the failures of his films, the dude is now going to get married to his girlfriend thereby decreasing his number of female fans even further which is already dwindling.
He should learn something from Ranbir that now when you are a startup in the industry, being a boyfriend or a girlfriend of some other hot star or a steady girlfriend is a better proposition than marrying straightaway. I think Imran is marrying because his soon-to-be mother-in-law is the head of Network18 so may be she can help him with some roles.
But if an actor is bad then even God cannot save him. I really feel sorry for Imran. I really thought he was a good actor in his first film, which despite being a cliched story worked because of his charm. But sadly, the charm is gone after signing two bad films Kidnap and Luck which seems to have destroyed his chances of ever getting a good role in a good film and working with really talented directors, who by the way, are all eager to work with Ranbir.
I think the general perception in the industry is Ranbir is the next big thing and is already working or has worked in the best roles in the best films with the best directors. Infact, he has already signed Imtiaz Ali's next film.
My clear prediction is that 2,3 years from now Ranbir would be the biggest "Young" star of India. And Imran apart from being really jealous from his so-called friend would be just languishing in B-grade films joining the company of Uday Chopra, Harman Baweja, Zayed Khan and the likes.
Just because his first film "Jaane tu" was a big hit doesn't mean he's gonna continue the ride. Jaane Tu was a fluke hit which was hit because of Tyrewala's script.
Even Imran's next so-called "Good" film Delhi Belly has been offered to him because of Aamir being the producer of the film and he offered his nephew a good role in a good film. Without Aamir, people wouldn't even care about Imran.
But that is not the case with Ranbir. Even though he is the son of Rishi kapoor, the directors are not signing him because of that. They are signing him for his acting ability which I think is way better than other actors of his generation.
Even with all that, I wish Imran all the best and hope that he comes up again as was predicted when his first film became one of the biggest hits of the year.
Infact, I wish both of them best of luck, considerably more so to Imran because I think he needs the luck factor a lot more than Ranbir
