Hrithik, for sure. I agree that some of his performances are way too pretentious, but on the flip side, he has also given some good performances. Kaho na pyaar hai, Fiza, Jodhaa akhbar, Lakshya, Luck by chance (even though it was just a cameo) and ZNMD (if you have seen it)
As for Salman, he simply and quite conveniently, rides on his star power to get hits. At least Hrithik gives me the vibe that he is serious about what he is doing, Salman is all about 'I-don't-give-a-rat's-ass-about-acting-I-am-a-superstar'
And who says Salman 'entertains'? Wanted, Dabang and Ready were utter crap, particularly the latter. I haven't watched Wanted but if it's along the lines of Dabang, then I'd rather stay away from it.
So yes, bottom line, Hrithik is the better actor, and can give good performances provided he gets the right director.
