Ranbir Kapoor is by far the best of the new generation. Agreed. But why does everyone on KWK obsess over him? I mean, you have some of the guests putting RK over Aamir, Hrithik, SRK. That's just ridiculous. RK is phenomenal but he's definitely not above Aamir, Hrithik or SRK. He has years ahead of him.

Right now honestly speaking RK actually comes out to be BEST ACTOR!

Look at films and roles SRK, Salman, Ajay are doing! Do those performances actually make you stand on your feet and applaud for same! NO! Those stars are rather busy in Films that have BO pull rather than in acting!

Those guests are definitely justified in putting RK at top

I didn't mention Salman or Ajay. They are off their heads considering their current movie choices. But there's no way RK is better than SRK, Aamir or Hrithik, these actors have given us some spectacular, experimental performances. Apart from Barfi and maybe Rockstar, Ranbir has been mediocre. He wasn't that great in yjhd or Besharam.

In terms of strictly acting..Ranbir being a better actor than Hrithik, Amir, & SRK is very much arguable. In my opinion, I genuinely feel he's a better actor than all three of them...and the fact that many ARE ranking Ranbir ahead of all of these other actors says a lot in itself..otherwise, just because KJo throws in Ranbir doesn't necessarily mean people have to rank him above the others..but majority of the times, they do.
In terms of starpower - yes, Hrithik, Amir, Salman, SRK are in a different league.

Besharam was definitely a crap

But I liked him in YJHD! He was amazing in it! Also Rocket Singh, WUS, Rajneeti- he was strong in those films! I also found him great in APKGK! Barfi and Rocksteady were definitely his best work till date!

So as I said RIGHT NOW he is indeed best actor present!

using Besharam as an example is the only thing you can do.

yes he was meh in Bhesharam, Anjaana Anjaani and BAH.

He wasn't bad in YJHD.

He was fantastic in Barfi, Rockstar, Wake Up Sid, Raajneeti, Rocket Singh, APKGK and even in Sawariya.

and he is working with the best directors of bollywood, even the so called super stars can only dream to be working with the directors ranbir is working with.

I haven't seen AA so can't comment. But the promos looked crap. And yeah BAH is another crap performance but that was only his second movie. I'm not saying RK is a crap actor. I think he's wonderful, the best among the new lot and much better than most of the older actors I.e. Akshay, Salman but he is not better than Aamir, Hritihk or SRK. Yes SRK is currently signing nonsensical films but that shouldn't take away from his talent.

^People are ranking in terms of the work they do today, hence Ranbir ahead of SRK.

That's why DP gets ranked higher than others also.

u should be judged for your work currently, people shouldn't rank if u just gave a good performance 557698375389 yeas ago and after that u did shitty films, so of course people will rank keeping your latest films in mind.

Agreed. But Hrithik and Aamir haven't given us just the one/two versatile performance. They have consistently given us good films.

He's definitely better actor than all of them you listed, maybe Aamir is slightly better at comedy than Ranbir but other than that yeah Ranbir is the best actor right now!

And is KJo who is obsessed with him not everyone

One word. Barfi IMO.
That one film is enough to show the guts he has as an actor to do such a film so early in his career. If you look at the filmography of the Khans and Hrithik most of their earlier films had them trying to establish themselves vs true experimenting. Later in their careers came the experiments and I can't remember any for some of them. All their intial choices were geared towards STAR than ACTOR.

Ranbir's and in fact Ranveer, Shushant IMO have made early choices that showcase their versatility early in their career more than the Khans or Hrithik. In 20 + years their filmography would have better movies in terms of quality than the Khans and HR IMO.
