No one. They still earn in crores even if they're not at the top. Why the hell would anyone give up crores? That too when it's easy money? 😆

And who are we to decide - the best you can do is stop watching them or ignore them.


You are saying like if someone post here Kareena, then kareena will retire tomorrow. We are audience and this is an discussion forum. Whats the point if you cant discuss what you feel?

I also never understood why people care about Junior B or Sonam or anyone else leaving Bollywood. If you don't like him or her just stop watching his or her movies. Unless you think they are a threat to your fav actors..I don't see why people even care. Let Junior B earn the little money he earns for his wife and daughter.

And in terms of Amitabh..at least the old man is still doing what he loves..and his damn good at it. Better for him than sitting at home all depressed, sad and feeling sorry about being old with nothing to do.

Same with Maduri. Let the woman do her thing.

And Sonam is drop dead gorgeous. She is a 9 in my books. What a stunner!


Audience forms an opinion. If there is no opinion then there would be no superstars. Everyone would be in same category earning same amount of money. No movies will be hit, no movies will be a flop. If a cricketer like Dravid can be forced into retirement who was in great form, then who are these flop actors? (except AB Sr)

you guys can have an opinion..am not against that. I just don't think it's fair to want someone to leave their job. Esp if they are not even that bad..like Junior B and his dad, and Vivek O..they are actually talented.

Am not against the whole thing because I will give you a name..I think Nargis F should stop acting because she is a horrible actress. But others I don't agree with. But even with Nargis..she's pretty to look at..so I guess it's not too bad to have her around.

You think the audience wont accept a SRK-Kajol or Salman-Karishma? Am not sure..If the story is decent , am sure the Khans have enough star power to make it a success..Atleast they can try 😆 I mean both DP and Anushka were debutantes in OSO and RNBDJ ..And Salman acts with ppl like Daisy 😆 So its not like they rely on the heroine's star power..Of course having a Kat or DP adds a few crores but its plain awkward IMO 😆

I'd love to see a Lolo-Salman or Ash-SRK film! But forget about audiences, filmmakers don't even seem keen to sign older heroines in decent films. Just Dangerous Ishq and the likes.

Some times bad actors can be a turnoff in a movie you wanna watch. Maybe Hero-Director duo make you excited so you can't ignore the film even if there are irritating actors in it. AB Jr has become very bitter person(his mom too) and can't seem to stand younger actors who came after him overtaking him so easily. If you don't have a solo hit for ages learn to be humble rather than taking potshots at successful newcomers who people want to see.

Of course you can discuss who's stopping ya!

I just saw some replies and added my point to the discussion.

I'm just saying that there are still people out there who shall watch them and that's the reason producers pay them so high. If nobody is interested in them, naturally no one will approach them and they will be forced to hang their boots.

The problem is even audience are not accepting them anymore. I even gave example. Madhuri did 3 movies since 2007 and 2 of them ended up being disaster while one being flop. Do you think audience still like her? Clearly not.
Still there are producers who think its better to use them than gamble on newcomers. How will industry get newcomers if we are still stuck with old failed actors? Do you think we would have gotten a fine actor like boman irani if Rajkumar hirani had stuck with Amitabh and not given chance to him? These actors are trying hard. You can see how desperate madhuri is to get back. We as audience are just sending a message that stop doing what you are doing and hang your boots.

Madhuri just picked the wrong films. If she had come up with a good film then everything would've been fine. Like Sridevi came back with English Vinglish and it worked. Doesn't mean people would've made Aaja Nachle a hit if Sridevi were to be in it. The point is - this industry is big enough to give opportunities to every kind of actor, old or new, hit or flop. Boman would've been an actor regardless because Amitabh can't do every film.

I agree, just like Federer should in tennis.
