Discuss.
Controversy warning: I hate the old Don. AB sucks at playing a slick, sharp-witted maniac. Plus, the old one was kitschy as hell.

Don't you think 20- 30 years later the current movies that earn lot of accolades from critics and audience will be too cheesy and cliched so no wonder the old Don seems like that😛
But I still do love AB Sr's Don😃

SRK'S don.

AB Sr.'s don was good too but I prefer the SRK don, I have always liked SRK in the negative roles more than AB. SRK as Don was a total sinister, I was totally hating on him the person yet loving his wickedness.
and the dialogue "don ko pakadna mushkil ji nahi naamumkin hai" makes more sense in SRK's don 😆 in don 3, Don will probably die but the 3 series long chase totally lives up to the pakadna naamumkin hai dialogue, if you know what I mean.

Rajni's Billa 😆

There's nothing wrong with kitsch IMO. I love that stuff. Anyway, my favourite Don will always be the original.

I haven't watched Don Two but from what I have seen in Don One I prefer AB Sr's Don than SRK's one.

its a tie for me.
when srks don was announced, i felt someone had punched me in stomach. yes. i thought ..yeah right ruin another classic.

classic...well i do consider abs don a classic. how i wish i had seen this one on big screen. i hope one day they do decide to have re runs.

maybe i am the minority here, but i absolutely loved srks take on don. and how about don 2 returns..loved it even more. farhan had made it slick ...and don't mind it all.
i will take don over srk kank, devdas, k3g, mnik, etc..any given day.

Let me add that I don't hate SRK's Don at all. I liked it in fact. But Big B's will always be my favourite version.

AB sr's don was like an evil version of james bond but SRK's don is a cold-hearted,more manipulative and sinister maniac with no remorse of life ! Big B's don didnt look much evil to me so i prefer SRK's don 😆

exactly, srk's don is more evil and that's what I wanted to see for a change- pure evilness with no place for goodness. 😆
