Which star's success is resented the most (by media/public)? Who're the stars whose success is either not accepted or accepted very grudgingly?

(It seems to be for most stars, but who are the ones exactly whose rise seems to piss off either people or media or both?)

Talk on and please give reasons/instances. Could be any star from past or present. Please go ahead and give your views!

P.S - Kindly avoid fan wars. Please.

I feel star sons and star daughters because everybody has this idea that they get a break very easily and also good movies because of their surnames.And it's true to certain extent but most of the people forget that these starkids also need something called luck and they too work really hard.Not every starkid is successful in bollywood.

Salman & Akshay


I felt for a while it was SRK since he is not star kid but now I feel he gets too much praise and now he is not even at the no.1 level anymore

though i hate Salman's recent trend of shitty films, but in all honesty i am happy the guy got the recognition he should have gotten years ago.

Generally speaking Salman (recent fame) and Katrina (all her career, poor gal) are most resented. 😆

If we are discussing inside the industry maybe Salmans recent spate of hits are. I have never met anyone from Bollywood apart from Abhishek Bachchan & Ritesh Deshmukh and that too was 2 minutes autograph thing. So I really can not begin to tell you how people in Bollywood think but I feel a lot of people were not happy with Dabangg and /or his subsequent films. (Ready, Bodyguard). Maybe they were not happy that they work so hard 365 and every day you hear well Sallu ki film 100 nahi 125 nah 175 crore kar gai. When they know he does not work as hard. He has admitted it lol. But now I think it is better. Actually I have heard various Bollywood personalities criticize Rowdy Rathore SOS Housefull series Golmaal series & even Ghajini and do not speak on his films. Maybe fear factor. Most likely cause every actor has masala films now

Resented: Akshay Kumar. It was always about the Khans. Devgan got some respect as a National Award winning actor. It's Akshay who was never thought to be of any consequence. People still break into a glee when his films flop or bang their heads in walls if they succeed. It also pisses them off how suddenly since last 5 years he's been topping those highest tax payers' lists too.

Next in line seems to be Salman. He doesn't appeal one bit to media. Classy, urban types hate him the most. Trade props him up. But his rise has spawned columns and columns on his impact on cinema (in lowering the standards!) and obsession with box office. Even his "friend" Aamir made a snide remark on how 8 out of 10, 100 crore films aren't necessarily loved by audience.

Grudgingly accepted: Aamir Khan. Stardust, Filmfare literally "sound" exasperated to figure out how he seems to know pulse of audience since Lagaan days. Many reporters bashed him. Some have softened stance (is it because they acknowledge his success or is it a resistance to others like Salman, God knows). Some prominent names still continue to bash him (even with respect to quality) yet accept he's a success.
