Ranbir is way over rated. I am sure his last name has something to do with it. He is not that great an actor. Average at best. He is an average looking guy and an ok dancer. I never understood all the hype about him. 😲

If we're looking at talent alone, Shahid is far more talented than Ranbir will ever be. He is also a fab dancer and good looking to boot. Shahid's problem is that he picks awful scripts. If he picks really good scripts, he'll leave Ranbir far behind. Picking Mausam over OUATIM2 and ZNMD was plain stupid. All for a chance to work with his dad. Can't believe he gave up 2 years of his time to that disaster. Hope his next couple movies are hits. He is someone who definitely deserves success.


Sorry but I have to disagree here..his last name has nothing to do with his popularity. His popularity has to do with girls liking him (he has a lot of female fans, he is talented compared to Imran and other newcomers..he has no competition..he does good films...he is a smart career man.he works really hard and it's apparent in the making of his films that he wants to be good at what he does..these are the reasons why he is successful not because of his last name. I think it's unfair when members try to take away success from a star just because they come from a filmi family.

I have no problem with ranbir and find him a great actor but i think these days he is being overhyped mainly cos there is no competition actingwise from the other A-listers since 2011 ! Salman(barring dabangg series),ajay has unofficially quit acting, aamir isnt also delivering upto the mark ,SRK is doing roles that dont suit him,only akshay seems to have stepped out of the comfort zone this yr and this yr i think ranbir cant top actingwise !

why Ranbir has to be like a khan ???? what is this > he can't be SRK or aamir or Salman ?????

are khans like Bachchan , Rajesh khanna , Raj kapoor, Dev anand , jublie kumar , dharmendra ??? No


Ranbir will make his own position

and who knows if he will have biggest fan following than these khans 😉

Future time will be Kapoor's

so many kapoors r entering in BW ...2-3 toh hit ho hi jaayenge beside Ranbir

@ pathaka...Skepblun's reply posts were not for u i think...
its for me...i was the first person said fuirst 6 years of khans and ajay and akshay...
despite of giving hits none of the medias or fans never called ajay or akshay superstar..they got the title pretty late...
but in case of hritik and ranbir...they got it very early...
bcose time changed everything change...bollywood and stardom...now hits are not good as 20 years back...now 100 cr club is the criteria...
y ranbir is a superstar...bcose his intelligence talent... movies...his charm...his fan base...his Pr...his luck...and his kapoor tag...and the endorsements he carries is biggest example for his stardom...
i'm not underrating khans akshya or ajay's hardwork or experirence...but not ignoring RK's hard work...
salman AAmir and SRK got stardom by doing movies against each other..they dint havd to compete wiht others..as by that time anil sunny jackie all are a\faded...
or they made thme fade...
ajay and akshay had to do more hard work despites of hits they dint got the due ...lately only they got recognised ...
for RK he has to compete with the new lot abhishek..hrithik..shahid...then akshya ajay...then khans...and also compete with young gen kids also...competitng with all these super mega stars and experimenting with barfi, rocket singh, rajneeti and making them hit is not a easy work...

@Pathaka

Please do not assume I was posting only in reply to you. My posts in the thread were about the article and some comments that alleged that while Khans are yet to be crossed, others are left because they became "superstars later".

Raajneeti is experimental. But it's not like seniors did not do experimental or risky cinema. So Ranbir does not really score brownie points above seniors here.

The article has sparked off debate only because they try to put RK above others (seniors included) which is wrong!

RK has also played urban yuppie lover mainly except Barfi, Raajneeti.

Rocket Singh is experimental? How? It is different. But it is not experimental, risky or arthouse.

And the article talks of stardom, nay, superstardom. So why mix content here? Discussions on content of films are different.

My responses were in vein with the article, PR and spin put by media and some fanatics. I am not targetting any RK supporter individually.

Again sorry if I offended you in any post.

It depends on if he can sustain honestly.


Yes. And am sure he can still stay on the top if he keeps doing the awesome movies he is doing. He did Barfi made critics happy. He did YJHD for the commercial lovers. He is smart with his film choices unlike his cousin bebo who doesn't even read her scripts and looks at if a Khan is in a film..drives me crazy as a fan 🥱

The 'Superstar' era got over after Amitabh Bachchan. We haven't had a superstar after him. Before Big B, we had Rajesh Khanna. And it ended with Big B. Yeah the Khans got famous but no one even got close to the superstarish aura that Rajesh Khanna and Big B posesssed. It's a different story that the advent of social media proved how cuckooo they both were. Nowadays the term is used quite loosely. Everyone is a superstar. Two hits and the media terms them that. It just rings hollow.


well said mithi ...khans are also overrarted if Ranbir is 😛
