I understand its acting and their job is to convince us, but that's the thing...they don't look convincing generally. SRK looks like he is acting with his daughters...or if I really want to be nice, then very young sisters.

Aamir and Kareena looked weird together..on top of that Aamir insists on kissing every single heroine of his..and it's not some small peck like in JTHJ either. 😕

Salman...well...yeah.

But Smarie he/they cant. No matter how hard they try...the effort to look in their late 20s or early 30s is obvious as compared to say Ranbir or Emran who are actually that age. IMO I would want to see SRK doing more romantic roles. With JTHJ he proved he has no competition when it comes to romance. But he needs to play his age or atleast characters close to his age with a decent script ofcourse.


no yaar...see aamir n sallu somehow managed to look younger right??

i mean look at aamir from fanaa and look at him in 3I...he obviously made some effort...got SOMETHING done i dunno wht but atleast he did something to manage to look young...

and even sallu...if u compare the way he looked in Yuvvraj and in bodyguard u'll see a huge difference...he looks much younger...

if srk wants to keep playing the 25 year old samar anand type of roles, then he obviously needs to put some effort into the way he looks...and if he dosent want too..thts fine too...just play ur age then...

The age difference should be weaved into the story. Like SRK-Anushka pairing looked justified in JTHJ as compared to RNBDJ simply because we were told there is a 17 year age difference between the two.

OMG shreya! i still haven't seen JTHJ- say no more, say no more 😆

but i agree with you! the age difference should be made a part of story to make it look convincing!

Thats right...they got some work done. At times even SRK seems to look as if he had some work done but I didnt see anything of that sort onscreen. Either its a personal choice or perhaps he has some medical problem due to which he cant get botoxed.
But whether they got work done or not...dont you think Ranbir or Imran would have looked more convincing as a college kid?

@kozia if tht happens...bollywood would seriously be a happy place...

i dunt mind watching a 40 year old romancing a 25 year old...i really dunt...

but i do mind a 40 year old who clearly looks so trying to pass off and fail as a 25 year old to woo another 25 year old...THAT is creeptastic...

So basically Sharukh should just go get plastic surgery done. That's really not the right solution for it sorry.

No...why can't he start doing age appropriate stuff, why can't writers in BW grow a brain and write stories for 40 year olds because life doesn't end at 40 for god's sakes!

Role are written for Amitabh Bachchan, why can't writers write proper stuff for the Khans? And why can't the Khans start picking those roles too instead of trying to shove their jaawanis down our throats?

So this same SRK plays a 60 year old Veer at 40, a 30 year old father to an 8 year old at 30, but nearing 50 he has to pass for a 25 year old because writers can't comprehend characters being older than 25? WHAT BS!

ofcourse they would...but i dunt think older actors "shouldnt" be playing college kids as long as they can look convincing...

i agree with chocolover!

i mean like in hollywood

like Leonardo DiCaprio did not continue playing a "jack" he did roles later which justified his age!
