then, how dare to compare RK WITH RS😡


You're acting as if Ranveer Singh debuted yesterday... he's no new kid on the block. He's been in the industry for about 3 years and has already done remarkable work ... the gap between them isn't that big that they can't be compared.

Well in BW, no one can predict anything. Gadar was a blockbuster, yet sunny is hardly visible in lead actors now a days. In 90's no one would have ever thought that SRK would be able to make this large, or until kahani or dirty picture, there were constant doubts, skepticism about vidya. However they were able to make it, and it needs a lot of things, especially for an outsider, hard work, extreme intelligence(I give credit to srk's intelligence for his success, he knows how to stay) are the major factors.
So yeah ranveer can outdone ranbir, or even some other actor, there are possibilities, but it needs a lot of things, and right now I don't see it in anyone in younger generation.(Also Aamir and SRK are much more intelligent than their previous generation stars)

no one is comparing them, it would be unfair to compare them as ranbir has been in he industry twice as long and done many more films. The discussion is about can ranveer become a competitor for ranbir in the future, and I think he can if he continues to do the good work he is doing.

Yes, Ranbir should. The best part about this is that they both know they're competition to each other.
There's room for both these actors to establish themselves in bollywood and become the best that they can possibly become and I really hope they do since they're both fine, hardworking actors. I think Ranbir has done really amazing for himself over the years..the guy hardly had any competition from his contemporaries yet chose quality work and has only proved himself every step of the way. Not only that, the guy is an extremely smart actor...he knows what he wants. Ranveer on the other hand is such a powerhouse of a performer..so well rounded. I think that injury he had on the sets of Lootera kind of put him out of the limelight but with an amazing 2013, he's back.. and with Besharam not doing well..I think it was a wake up call for Ranbir to only work harder...which is good because you win some and you lose some. That applies to Ranveer as well. I think we tend to forget that there's room for BOTH of these two in bollywood..and the way I see it...if these two don't compete with each other, then there's not much to look forward to in bwood in coming years.

Well it is interesting. The big clues come from within the industry itself. Eg: Bombay Velvet first went to RS and then to RK. Zoya's next film went to RK first then it went straight to RS. Everyone knows that RK was the original choice for BBB. I rem RK's BBC interview during Besharam promotion, he was asked whom he considered the biggest competition and they directly mentioned RS name. So the industry, media all have already put these two opposite each other even if they like it or not.

I dunno why I feel all this rivalry/competition b/w RK and RS is just at the surface level..Like the much hyped Sallu Vs SRK...its based on personal equations more than professional and its usually fueled by the media for their own benefits given the fact Sallu-SRK have the craziest and largest fan base among movie-goers more than Aamir or any1 else

But on a professional front its always been Aamir Vs SRK...though it doesnt look like that ,if u pay closer attention to their careers u can see the reality...its always Aamir and SRK who are on board for playing the same characters or being part of a movie...they are the ones who always compete for same role,awards other recognitions etc...Sallu almost seems like soem1 who works in a different sphere lol...His brand of cinema is extremely different from Aamir or SRK...If anything bear resemblance to Akki's or Sanjay dutt's style of movies

I feel the same abt Ranveer-Ranbir...I dont really see them eaing into each other's space in the future...I doubt the kind of roles offered to Ranbir will be offered to Ranveer or vice versa...For eg cant think of someone offering RK a BBB or him pulling off bittu...same goes Ranvir's character in RL..I dont think someone can envision RS as Barfi or him portraying tht role to perfection like RK did

I agree with what Varun said in KWK..RS's competitors should be some one as mad and spontaneous as him...thts nt Biru..Its gonna be Varun,Sushant etc ..And there is gonna be ARK Vs Arjun K..I dont see any1 among current crop challenging RK's first choice ranking for movie roles yet...but challenging his stardom is possible

^ ranbir was actually offered BBB but turned it down, he even said on KWK that he regretted turning it down.
Ranveer was the first choice for Bombay velvet but had to turn it down as he was shooting for ramleela at the time and then the role went to ranbir.
Ranbir and kareena were the first choices for zoya brother-sister movie but they both turned it down and so zoya then offered it to ranveer and priyanka and both accepted it.

It's the same way roles have been offered to katrina and deepika, and when they turned it down it went to the other person. Like katrina was supposed to do yjhd.

hmm ok.I cant talk about other roles as they are yet to be unraveled onscreen but RK as Bittu is absolute NO-NO...I dunno what Adi C was thinking but now especially after Besharam I m sure he is glad he went ahead with Ranveer.Energetic,brash,street smart Bittoo could only be safe in RS's hands.I think back when actors where being finalized for the above roles,there werent much options for directors other than RS-RK...this onslaught of newcomers has happened just some months ago...Back when casting was being done,prodn hous or directors couldnt think of a capable seasoned actor for such roles and RS being most talented and skilled young actor after RK they went with him and viceversa...now there is a new phenomena and plethora of young guns being launched...the directors have more options to choose from now and competition is vivid...Its nt gonna be RS vs RK every time a role which requires young actor is written...lets see what happens in future..!
