The ONLY two superstars of our generation - Page 19

I don't want Ranbir to be next "any khan". Apart from Swades and Chak De, SRK hasn't done any movie that challenged him as an actor in the last decade. Even his fans here are complaining him doing masala movies alone. Aamir has been the best when it comes to selecting movies, but then again, you also get caught up in the race and end up doing movies like D3 just for box office success.

It's better if they select movies closer to their heart and success will follow as it happened with Barfi. Audiences are ready to accept all kind of movies now. He already has great brand value now so should continue the same path he's been taking without getting caught up in the race. Hopefully, BV and Jagga Jasoos works.

Since I said upthread I see Ranveer as a future SRK, I'll try to explain why I think so. Though their backgrounds are different, Ranveer and SRK are more similar to me than a Sushant and SRK.

Ranveer and SRK do not have the classical chocolate boy handsome good looks. In fact their personality outweighs their looks IMO. SRK even in Fauji managed to stand out because of his personality despite the lead being more classically handsome. They both have incredible screen presence and your eyes follow them even though they are surrounded by more good looking people.

They are incredibly witty and can think on their toes. You see it in their hosting especially. I love the one where Ranveer gets his first ever debut award and he is overwhelmed ,speechless and in tears and SRK who is hosting puts a smile on his face and even makes him dance by asking him why he is crying, it is he who has to cry because Ranveer has come into the industry

😆. I saw Ranveer in action in the GIMA awards, even Ramesh Sippy said he was the big revelation of the night. Both SRK and Ranveer love to entertain and do incredibly stupid things, During the Zee awards, Abhi and Ritesh were a snoozefest, SRK did incredibly stupid things to entertain despite being injured. Which brings me to the biggest similarity between them. The fire in them to succeed which a young Salman or Aamir did not have, but was clear as a bell with SRK and in Ranveer now. And I have to add their gratitude. SRK comes across as grateful, not entitled and so does Ranveer. Sure, he is loud and not as sophisticated as SRK, but I see an SRK in Ranveer among the current lot.

Obviously this is not meant to convince you, but a POV on why I think so.

Fair enough ur POV..respect it

First of all yes SRK wasnt conventionally goodlooking...nt the tall dark handsome macho kinds...but I disagree to the fact he lacked the chocolate boy looks...his big brown eyes full off innocence and soft dark tresses and dimples charmed many hearts...No one thought he is smouldering sexy with great abs but he always appeared very endearing and adorable on/offscreen...He was no Salman but definitely not Ajay devgn in looks dept...I feel the same for Ranbir...he also has that boy next door charm like SRK...not supergood looking like Sidharth or Aditya but still cute enough...Ranveer sorry but he hardly looks presentable most of the times...such wacky dressing sense makes him appear so raw and unpolished...it may have takers here but to common public who dont have much knowledge abt fashion,the looks Ranveer sports = atrocious...Not many connect to his unkept hair or horrendous shades of suits

SRK used to charm all his female costars...none of them had any issues with him...they rate him as best costar in all shows...Cant say the same for Ranveer...DP doesnt count as she is his gf lol..But Anushka,Sonakshi,PC etc all seemed irked by his antics at one point or other...he might treat women well but his demenaour is nt as appealing to costars as ppl here say...hence the issues...even in KWK all yesteryear heroines ranking Ranbir as the best while SRK is still preferred to likes of Sallu/Aamir.

Yeah Ranveer is witty and as energetic as SRK...that I will agree...both are good hosts...But Ranveer's humour is very different from SRK...its not everyone's cup of tea...SRK's humour and sarcasm is always classy...its more like Saif Ali Khan's ...Ranveer goes to the Govinda zone more often...very loud and hyper...its not a bad thing but its different from SRK's clever lines and self deprecating humor...like PC said ,she likes funny guys with intelligent sense of humour...she said that to take a dig at Ranveer during some gundey promotion lol...SRK belongs to latter group...Also SRK started going OTT with digs at other celebs(Saawariya spoof) only after he was confident enough and achieved superstardom...Ranveer has just started out and the industry or general public wont tolerate such kinds of taunts or sarcasm from him...he has to establish himself as a star before taking such kinda liberty as an entertainer or host...One thing I wud agree Ranveer's diction and vocabulary is commendable...much better than any actors belonging to younger lot 👍🏼...Though Ranbir is not far behind in that dept too.

Ranveer's very energetic no doubt...he has that fire in him to succeed yes...but we are discrediting other actors belonging to current crop here...Not just Ranveer,Ranbir is also equally passionate about his work...his dedication is 100%...same goes for Sushant,Sid,Varun,Ayushman etc...these guys are all out there ready to work there ass out to realise their BW dreams...all of them are equally invested just like Ranveer...willing to go to any ends...very calculative abt career moves...none of them have taken BW career for granted...very hardworking and posses lot of perseverance...all of them have the fire a young SRK had...I dont see anyone lazy as Sallu nowadays lol..they take special interest in every minute details...from the look of the character to script to direction to choreography !

But yes u might have ur own reasons like the ones stated in ur post to think like that...I m nt denying that.. ...future is unpredictable,i just speak on basis of what I observed...I maybe wrong..me too dont get the Aamir-Ranbir comparison tbh...Ranbir's energy, charisma and moves in Badtameez dil..well I havent something like that from Aamir in his hey days...some of his songs used to bore the heck out of me lol...Ranbir has that goofy charm which Aamir lacked...Badtameez dil rocked the nation just like Ruk ja did in 1995...So like I said to each his own..I dont find comparisons b/w Aamir-Ranbir or SRK-Ranveer valid...some others do..its fine...lets see what happens in future.

SRK's sole masala movie is CE...Ra-1 or JTHJ didnt belong to that zone...they were just bad movies...Neither entertained the mass nor the class..That said imo SRK's fanbase was always among the multiplex audience...his strongest supporters are the NRI audience...the typical YRF romcoms he did never appealed to the single screen audience much I think...they were more takers for Sallu/Akki comedy-action flicks among the SS movie goers...still SRK made it...so even having a strong multiplex audience supoort is good enough to attain stardom...just cuz Ranbir's movies doesnt appeal to single screens,doesnt mean he cant become a superstar and hence has to shift entire focus to masala potboilers...he is doing good work now...should continue with the versatility and experimentation...yes he has a brand value and loyal audience,,,,they are not going away cuz of 1 besharam.

alia has a superstar like quality but she isnt there yet

Coming to superstardom...I guess Besharam proved Ranbir is yet to reach there. As for Alia...let her become a star first.

U said it all...n me n my friends love ranveer since bbb n dey r not on if

WOW..This is like the easiest way to get Ranbir and Alia bashed😆 Anyways, according to this forum, Ranbir is here only because of his surname..Critics praised him for his performance in Barfi, Rockstar, Rocket Singh and WUS cos Rishi Kapoor threatened them at gun point to do so..Ppl gush about him only because he is Raj Kapoor's grand son..Besharam proved Ranbir has zilch star power..He is gonna fade away in a couple of years and then we'l see the real actors and super stars own Bollywood..Waiting for this devil incarnate to just disappear..So be it😆
