😆😆..Me too..A school time crush..KTH was the first and the only ekta show I watched..My friends forced me into it..just for Rajeev..Aamir was a brilliant movie and I liked him in Shaitaan too..

It really pisses me off to see all these Tushar Kapoors and Uday Chopras and Imran Khans getting so many chances..just because they are star sons..and talented people like Rajeev are neglected here..

Even Ekta Maiyya didn't stand up for him! He is a very good actor but there are too many star kids around right now. He will have too do some Indy movies to sustain.

Rajeev is a very good actor. He also has a good script sense and sounds intelligent. No controversies, nothing. Just concentrating on his work kinds.

However, he is really bad at marketing/promoting himself. (Rajeev fans please don't take offence, main bhi uski fan hoon) and he himself accepted it one of his recent interviews. In BW, where there is so much competition and star kids are launched every year with pomp and show, plus with so many outsiders vying for roles, you really need to make your good work known and recognised. You need a good PR which keeps you in buzz so that audiences do not forget you- out of sight is out of mind after all! And along with that, outsiders need to keep networking to make contacts with industry folks, good directors and casting directors.

The people with whom Rajeev did his initial few films- Aamir, Shaitan etc. went on to achieve more, UTV became one of the biggest production houses, and gradually everyone moved on to bigger stars. Unfortunately Rajeev- who actually created quite a buzz when he entered the industry and was even signed for a film for Sanjay Leela Bhansali- didn't have good luck. His films got stuck and postponed. His other films went on to do well or got acclaimed critically but they weren't marketed properly. He truly is one of the MOST underrated actors- he needs to understand the way the industry works and adapt himself accordingly- just good work is NOT enough in BW. Yes he is doing well financially and satisfied with the work he is getting, but I as a fan am NOT satisfied as I feel he is capable of and deserves so much more!

Thankfully he has good films coming up this year so I hope moves only upwards hereon. Also I saw him and Manjiri on the coverpage of Good Housekeeping magazine- I hope this means that he has signed a good PR agency. I've always liked him and rooted for him, really want him to do well!

I had a crush on Rajveer singh shekhawat...uff. LRL was a show with which i's hooked up..he's amazing in that show. And aamir..i cried during that movie, and at the end, i'd crying too much. and yes...these star kids...!! ughhh. its indeed tough to make a mark in such an industry.

@nikitagmac. can't agree more with you. Right now, he needs to adopt himself, and behave intelligently(in terms of making choices), once he establishes himself, it'll be fine whatever way he want to do things.

Nikki his movie with SLB is announced too na i read on tc this movie will be hige since it has ABSr , Rani and strong script too . he will do well he is good actor doing good movies as well now
