I'm judging him for his recent work, not his past. Even I loved many movies of his from 90s. Who is stopping him from showing his real talent? Is he scared to try out differ genre? Who wouldn't want to show their talent? I don't know what is the real definition of talent...don't know if it always stays with you or vanishes. What I know is, what I see. Right now, I see nothing...If he has talent, good for him. But unfortunately, I see nothing but crap since the success he got in the name of Wanted.

Salman is a big enough star...that even if the movie sucks... I doubt it will do less than 100 cr business. And you can't compare these young lads to Salman Khan (Or other Khans for that matter). They may be talented but not big enough yet.

I may be wrong...if the movie ain't good..it might not good in BO. But I think that was then, this is now...time has changed...and I have seen the growth in Salman Khan's stardom...that's why I think the way I do.

action and masala is the current trend so people are going to make movies of this genre...a genre which will earn them money. some odd few people are trying different genres and I am hoping that like before, the action and masala movies trend will die out soon too, before romantic/family movies were the trend, then came horror for a bit, then comedy and now masala...I think when audience demand a change, the change will happen. but as of now they r enjoying masala/action movies esp by the khans so we are stuck with it atm. personally I want to see all 3 khans in romantic roles... salman is doing a movie with sooraj so I doubt that will be masala or action...
I think both salman and srk's work is not the same as it used 2 be...and I don't blame them but the current trends in BW. lets face it, nowadays u don't need 2 be a good actor to make a film a hit, u don't need 2 emote emotions to the level u had 2 back in the days to be classed as a good actor/actress and win an award. the importance of acting has declined in movies becos its not needed 4 the film 2 be a success...they focus mainly on the factors that the audience want...and that's entertainment in the form of masala flick comedies and action... they aren't concerned with the acting anymore.
you are entitled to ur opinion and I respect that becos its all down to individual preferences, but I just felt saying he is a star only becos of fans and not talent/movies was a bit harsh becos its far from the truth as he has done great movies and in some people's opinions still is. its just a matter of preferences.
I've never compared the young lads to the khans becos its totally wrong. In fact I think even when comparisons are made between HR and the khans, that's unfair becos he started off a lot later and isn't in their league. Khans being compared to Akky, and Sanjay etc is fine but not to HR and the younger lads, becos Khans have got more yrs of experience and are seniors to these even though they are all working in BW at the moment and can be classed as competitors

Jake - just stop your crap.

We all know how biased and delusional you are.
And more amusing, you cry over Shahid bashing but cant stop yourself from taking digs at Salman and his fans. Also I don't know how SRK"s last 5 films are any better than Salman's. 😆 Both are equally bad. But Shahid beats them both. Atleast Ra.One, JTHJ, Ready, Bodygaurd despite being crap were still hits but what about the B - grade Shahid. Whose fans are limited to Twitter only. And even more hilarious. New comers like ARK, Varun, Sidharth, Arjun, Ranveer have higher collections for their first films than any of Shahid films. 😆


I am biased and delusional? 😆

Name me one person on this Forum who ain't biased or delusional when it comes to their favourites.

Last five? I personally loved MNIK --- think that was a smart movie, great acting. CE was fun --- something new tried by SRK. Can't say anything about other three indeed.

ARK, Varun, Arjun ... have just started. The way Fardeen, Oberoi, Zayed Khan has started once ... Difference? Shahid is still doing lead roles and they are not. That counts for something. You can't predict their future already. Now, that's crap! Good luck to their future but ya can't compare em to Shahid.

Ranveer is indeed doing great...good for him ...

Please ... Look at your own superstar first. He has already started the promotion by bad mouthing other movies.

Hell, I have seen many stars bad mouth each other ... but never regarding their movies -- First show your Human how to act like 'human' then bad mouth other actors.

Ya are comparing a 48 to a 32 year old. I'm sure by the time he hits Salman's age...he'll have more hits and experience in his pocket.

It's silly to compare the khans or any star of that age to the younger guys, the khans have done many more films and have been longer in the industry so it's obvious they will be more popular.

word!👏👏👏👏 the comparison is inevitable but honestly speaking it shouldn't exist between the khans and any actor that's come a long time after them i.e. ranveer, shahid and HR... totally unfair... plus back in those days, u didn't need ur movie 2 hit the 100 crore mark for it 2 be a hit or for u to be classed as a top actor, but nowadays if ur movie hits the 100 crore club ur 1 of the top otherwise ur struggling...👎🏼

Salman by 32 had given over 12 hits. 2 All Time Blockbusters. 4 biggest hits annually. What does Shahid have?😆
Jake you are a blind fan here.


And you are not?

That was his luck, Shahid has his own ... Shahid opened his eyes late, that's his fault. It doesn't matter who got more hits ... what people remember is the status...I'm sure he'll have his time. By the time he reaches his age, I'm sure he'll be a big star himself, if not more.

More than I, you should know ... how fast the time and luck changes in this industry. I may have to remember ya name ... so remind ya of this in future ... I'm not a blind fan ... but got confident in his talent that he'll be big enough in the future.

So true! Nobody ever looked at numbers in the days the khans came about, do we know how much their films collected? NO!
Unfortunately today we are seeing success as how much they can collect at the box office which is really unfair as an actor may have a critically a acclaimed film that everyone loves, but because it doesn't earn that much it is claimed as a flop and the actor is seen as a loser. Take lootera for an example, I can only hear love for this movie from critics and audience, yet it flopped bcuz of collections, maybe it would have been a hit in the 80s or 90s.
