How long can these stars last in top rung? 2014-2015?Longer?

I invite members to give their views till what probable years they believe the 90s stars will be on top of the heap and continue to be a force to reckon with in terms of BO, popularity and craze/respect? Till how long can each of them draw crowds to theatres? Which star(s) will last longer as top draws? Which star(s) will begin to fizzle sooner? Whose career strategy (as a star) seems to be the best (in terms of sustaining top draw status)?

*Please share thoughts about others Akki and Ajay also in your responses, not just Khans. Avoid fan wars. Thanks.

Salman can do 1 film every 2.5-3 years as leading hero with younger girl. I feel the first few will still work at the box office do to the hype. in the mean time he can host tv shows

Aaamir will shift to that tv show full time and still produce and direct films

Shahrukh He may be done after Chennai Express.

Akshay 3-4 years

Ajay 2-3 years

Some predictions about SRK, and this topic in general makes me feel sad a little bit.

Big B and Rishi K was still giving hits into the 90s playing action hero and romantic hero respectively with Rishi K acting with heroines half his age! I think Salman and SRK are going to soon fade away unless they can re-invent themselves like Rishi K and Big B did! Salman can do his Sallu act for a few more years before it gets boring. SRK is trying to resurrect his career. Aamir will stick around as what he is. Akshay will be there- he has re-invented himself so many times- from action hero to comedy hero to what have you! I think he will do well in serious roles too! Ajay reached where he is today only in his 40s!

Ranbir, Imran, Ranveer, Arjun K, Varun Dhawan will take over soon- I say give them another 5 years!! RK is already big!

Well i think salman might take the rajnikant route and continue doing mindless actions ! I am not sure abt SRK ,JTHJ has proved that he cant pretend to be a 25 yr old and romance young chicks any more ,BO is ruled by salman and awards by ranbir ! he is losing his touch

NB...like I said before...There cannot be a Rajnikant in the BW industry...the BW industry is mainly based on looks and not talent...South movie industry is based on talent and not looks...thats why even the most talented stars from the south are rejected in BW because they often do not have the required looks...How else do u explain Katrina and Salman being on the top in BW and not Konkona and Naseeruddin Shah...Salman will fade away...once he loses his appearance...Have u seen how Rajnikant looks these days...and yet he is at the top...do u think a similar looking Salman will survive in BW...I don't think so...Unless and until salman changes the kind of roles he is doing ...he will be done in the next 4-5 years...he may be at the top right now...but success came a little late in life to him...

Shahrukh I am guessing and hoping will start doing meaningful roles like Swades and CDI because he can act and has the ability to be versatile...I mean someone called the King of romance...makes a movie like CDI without any female lead and romantic angle...a blockbuster...only Shahrukh can do that ...so yeah I am hoping SRK and Aamir will go the AB Sr. way and do more mature and different kinds of roles...

Bigg B and Rishi Kapoor were big only till 1993-1994 or so (at max). They faded out. Big B became a sorry version of his former self doing movies like Lal Badshah, Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan, Kohram, Mrityudaata, Sooryavansham. It's only his old man avatars in Major saab, half of Sooryavansham and Mohabbatein which were given some respectability by audience.

Since u predicted in some other thread that he will do a movie with Aradhya Bachchan also which means he will be acting as the male lead for another 20 years...which means by that time he will be around 65 and Aradhya will be 21...OK great analysis😳
