ye kisne kaha😆

For SRK, he is the only reason y he was consistent in giving BB, Hits n Huge craze in OverSeas...

nahi his OSO and CDI are BB bcoz salman and aamir were going through a bad phase (as said by someone)



Kamaal karte ho jaar... if he can make Overseas crowd go mad for him, what is the reason for his downfall after RNBDJ??

i didnt know there is a downfall of srk in overseas ...i think MNIK made 120Cr+ in overseas and it released after RNBDJ

In his career of 20 years, he has just given 2 ATBB - DDLJ & KKHH... many BlockBusters, infact he has been consistent from 20 years... never taken leave, never in any kind of personal big probs like court cases or anything...

ab isme SRK ka kya dhosh hai ki uski koi court cases nahi huyi...lekin ab he had controversies like MCA wala

A star who is so much consistent, when started giving HITS which are expected to do a ATBB or BlockBuster business Should worry for his consistent track record.

Ppl say he gives hit like Ra.One n termed as Trash, they compare it with Ready being a trash also a big hit...

Now if u r comparing Ra.One with Ready, both have zameen aasmaan ka antar, Huge Release scale for Ra.one, Infact the biggest when it was released as compared to Ready which was ordinary release, light Rom-Com film which was expected to do 60-70 cr, at max 80-90 cr... became BLOCKBUSTER, 2nd biggest HIt scoring 121 crore, which is 7 cr more than Ra.One. People are not that much fool 2 love a movie so much to make it that much big hit.

jab JTHJ aur Dabangg2 release ki baath aayi tho, screens didnt matter aur ab matter karthe hai...

IDK who said HAHK was not Salman's film but I think Salman was equally if not more amazing as Madhuri. I loved Salman in 90s. Even now I do like him but I loved Salman in 90s. MPK and HAHK are still my favs<3

Radheji, wat exactly do u mean by downfall?
Post RNBDJ, ie in 2009,he had a major surgery due to which tat year he only had one release Billu- tat too not as a lead
2010-MNIK- the SHiv Sena controvery n German Bakery blast...inspite of these hurdles the film did gud business...2011-Ra.one inspite of all negative publicity recovered cost, Don2 did the same both the films did above 200 crores worldwide.so wats the complain?
JTHJ has done well too...

so where is the downfall? scale of release,screens doesn't matter- the end result does...n none of his films fall in the 'flop' category...toh kaheka downfall?

k3g wasnt a ATBB it was a blockbuster bt a huge1

srk has done some good films oflet except the trash ra 1...i guess becoz of the genre we have to wait till CHENNAI EXPRESS so far he has scored a 100cr with 3 diff genres mayb a masala lyk CE would take him to the record books

heres the catch record breaking movies dunt ensure quality!!!

srk should choose scripts wisely and do 2 films a year frm now on!!!

Shahrukh has fallen out of the public favor in India. Even in USA JTHJ was the biggest Bollywood hit here in 2012 . But word of mouth where I live exactly wasn't that good. Everybody loved Talaash Barfi English Vinglish and were even entertained by Ek Tha Tiger and Dabangg 2 . But JTHJ everyone said he is to old for this stuff . My dad even said he was gonna walk out this movie if it wasn't for the Challa song. I liked it. I liked it but I preferred the other ones more.


I hope Chennai Express does good but SRK may or may not suit this role. So this could be either very good or bad. Then again Dabanng had the same very good or very bad angle to it. But I do not believe CE will break any records .

@Kirann

I said no one expected such phase for SRK because he was the only one who was playing the game right initially. He seemed to make the right choices. For eg., just see how he gave an ATBB like KKHH and an acclaimed film like Dil Se in same year. Yash Chopra himself used to say he had doubts over Darr and would think of shelving it (due to problems of heroines/heroes being replaced, warnings of a risky subject, problems between stars) but it was due to SRK's faith in project that it got made and released. Why did such a guy go wrong later? With age and experience one is believed to only get better so I said it was unexpected.

The keyword nowadays is media engagement and marketing. And SRK was the first one to manage media well unlike others who banned them. In-film branding happened for first time in DDLJ and DTPH. KKHH had brand tie ups with even Kelloggs back then in 1998 when those Chocos and cornflakes cereals had posters of Kajol-SRK on them. After Amitabh Bachchan he was the first to interact with fans as much as possible. Later others also became more accessible to fans.

All things which others do now for their and their films' promotions were done by SRK and co. in past. So it wasn't expected that others who took cues from his strategies only would upstage him later. (Everyone mauled him for spending time in TV channel studios later all stars did the same. People disliked him for that too but had to shut up after all stars started doing same!)

In fact he had clean image and nobody could ever think this guy could get angry in public.

We can say he's human after all but it's certainly hard to digest for he had impeccable record onscreen and offscreen in past (especially the 90s).

Just wondered what went wrong. Where and how?

and about overseas, my brother was telling me that Yash Raj films was the first Bollywood PH to promote movies so much overseas and since SRK was starring in most of those movies, he got so much more exposures overseas compared to other stars...and SRK mostly did romantic or family-oriented movies, which are far more popular and in demand overseas since Hollywood has far far better action movies than Bollywood...SRK did get a lot of exposure overseas...but it was him who created a place for himself in those people's hearts..his charisma, his characters, hsi persona was whole-heatedly accepted by the audience...but now that every actor is getting exposure overseas, their movies are also doing so much better overseas, of course, not at the level of SRK's, but they are doing decent business...there is what around 12 crores difference between ETT and JTHJ?


yes, YRF promotes so much films overseas...but SRK has not starred in all YRF releases...apart from SRK's films none of the YRF banner films haven't done well abroad except for ETT this year...so this excuse is not acceptable😃
