okay i need to vent it all out, i have been reading so many comparision posts about ranbir these days, i've been resisting myself not to comment, now i just cant!!! first of all, i'm neither a ranbir fan, nor do i hate him.
i dont understand, people compare him to newcomers like sid, there is always ranbir vs ranveer comparision, and comparing him with khans now?? seriouslyy?? yea ranbir is one of the best actors of current generartion, but rating him above khans is a bit too much. they have been ruling bollywood for almost two decades now. sharukh n salman gave some alltime hits like HAHK n DDLJ 20yrs back. ranbir doesnt have any such movie in his list. yea rockstar n barfi are gud but they won't be remembered 20yrs later. comparing him with khans or even hrithik for that matter, is totally unfair. blame KJo for that. he is the one who overhypes ranbir to such an extent that it gets nauseating now. and the guests rating him above srk n sometimes even aamir?? no comments about that

coming to his comparisions with ranveer, no doubt these two are gonna be khans of next generation. both are supertalented, both are very ambitious, and both of them have amazing lineup of movies now. but dont forget that ranveer is only 5movies old, ranbir is 3yrs older in industry than ranveer, and he has that kapoor tag which keeps him as a first choice among directors. ranveer is at the same position as ranbir was at his fifth film, that too with no filmy backgrroud (tho he is very distantly related to anil kapoor, and he didnt get any help from them to enter to movies) so comparing both of them isn't that fair, imo. ranbir isn't even that versatile i mean, wake up sid, ajab prem ki, n barfi, all of these hav that same charlie chaplin inspired roles, only rockstar was his best movie interms of acting. barfi was totally overrated movie, its priyanka's movie, her character was tough to play. both ranbir n ranveer r very talented, both have their pros n cons, they are the future. but comparing ranbir with khans is like kjo making fool of ranbir n making fool of himself, and it is an insult to khans n hrithik!!

Just one question... You actually think Ranbir still gets films on basis of his SURNAME!??

i never said that dear. i said he is the obvious first choice. about that i need to say, filmy background isnt everything. take imran for instance, he is also a star kid, he n ranbir wer introduced at same time, but see where he is now, due to bad choice of movies, n mediocre acting, and sonam!!!

all i mean is, ranbir has proved himself in terms of acting, but he has slight more advantage than ranveer in terms of movies choice. see DDD for example, ranbir rejected that, ranveer got it, u get my point? ranveer was the original choice for bombay velvet, but it went to ranbir. he gets slightly more favourism than ranveer, thats what i meant, whatever, if ranbir has kjo, ayan, imtiaz, ranveer has aditya chopra, slb, vm.

I think it's nothing about favouritism, it's just that Ranbir has proved himself to be a good actor time and again and with YJHD and Barfi he showed that he has a good star power, so producers automatically approach him first. Ranveer fame is new and only post RL... Though he is a great actor he is yet to prove his stand on Box Office after Gunday was average, that's why he comes second!

But please tell me how Wake Up Sid had Charlie Chaplin in it!???!

I didn't say Gunday flop... I said it wasn't a hit... And yes blame goes on whole cast! If Ranveer is being credited for OPENING for Gunday then Blame of failure should also go on him!
If you and other Ranveer fans accept that everyone had equal share in opening and weekend success then I would happily agree that Everyone, be it Ranveer or Priyanka had equally share in its aftermath failure...

@GundayVedant: honey i dont want to convert it to another rk v/s rs post. all i have to say is, i said, there is "slight" favorism towards ranbir, i didnt say it is the only reason. and again u r comparing ramleela n yjhd, dear ramleela is ranveer's 4th movie, where as ranbir is much older to industry than ranveer. ranbir may not be getting movies due to his kapoor surname now, but his career was established due to his kapoor surname dear. tell me, had band baaja baarat be a disaster like saawariya, will ranveer even be remembered in bw? accept it that being a starkid has its own advantages.
and coming to wake up sid, my bad, i sidnt watch it, my frn told me, his acting is no different in that from ajab prem ki or barfi. so i assumed that. but you said gunday is a FLOP?? seeing ur username, i am surprised you even said that!! i wont say its a clean hit, its a semi hit. 30cr profit fr a 50cr budget mvie is a flop??? i hav no comments about that, and i rest my case here.

I said its average not flop... For mistake I wrote it

And no dear I am not comparing Ranveer's filmography with that of Ranveer I am just saying that why producers prefer more Ranbir than Ranveer because right now he is more bankable... Years down Line that will change
And well I think you should watch film and then judge... Films named have totally different roles and genre as well...
And I agree we wouldn't have even known Ranbir had he not have the KAPOOR surname... There are advantages of being star kid but if that Star Kid has Talent then I honestly speaking don't have any complaints...

Yes he's great. He's the best amongst the new gen actors.

He deserves every bit of praise and hype he's getting! He's such a fine and natural actor and on top of that he's not afraid of experimenting!

Someone said he was average in Rockstar? Ermmm really? Rockstar is watchable only because of him! And I have a friend who's a musician and I have seen what type of craziness the musicians possess. Ranbir made me believe he's a musician in Rockstar! He was sooo good! The movie was not all that great agreed but RK was awesome!!!

I would not compare his BO pull with the Khans but he's surely a better actor than the Khans. And that is coming from a SRK fan!

And Ranveer fans, give it a break! Stop trying to prove that RS has better acting skills and better BO pull desperately!

Time will tell who's better!

At this moment, Ranbir is the better actor and the bigger star!
