I love ARK he's so hot but I agree, I think he will fade away. He doesn't seem motivated or interested in films as much as his contemporaries are. Its a shame really, he's a better actor than Sid M and Varun.

As for Shraddha, she may or may not fade. She has an interesting lineup, Haider,ABCD 2, and Milan Talkies.

She's an awful actress but since when did that matter eh.

He is very down to earth about his career but I think he likes it that way. All the best to him and I hope he does what makes him happy. God knows that he is a far better actor than Sidharth and Varun and Tiger and all the others.

ARK is jinxed and lazy? Really Now?? Just becoz he's not constantly on your face with overactive PR and marketing team, doesn't mean he's not dedicated or doesn't have a flair for his work. He maybe lazy to get heroically dressed and make gala entries at various events but that nowhere means that he's not serious about his profession.

What do you guys expect him to do really? ARK is doing what all other newcomers are- signing movies that he finds interesting and working hard for those movies. It's not his fault that DEI or Fitoor got delayed.

Just talking from their movie graph, what has Sid really done that some funny people claim him to be in a better space than ARK? Apparently, he just has one solo hit in EV n even in that his acting sucked..better then his previous two movies, true, but well, he hardly acted in his previous movies. And for all the 'Sid's first solo hit' hoopla, it's actually Ritesh who walked away with all the real praises for his spectacular performance. Now again Sid's next isn't a solo lol...

Coming on to DEI, I don't get the negativity that surrounds it, in this forum. It looks poor but not as bad as people here are making it out to be. For all we know maybe both ARK and Pari will deliver great performances even if the story turns out to be boring. And we don't even know the story yet.

Every actor needs to experiment instead of sticking to one kind of image. I'm glad that Aditya did something out of the box. DEI may or may not work but then none of you guys can guarantee that other newcomers will not deliver a flop.

I am yet to see both Sid and Varun try something different and succeed in it. Varun is doing it with Badalpur & hopefully he'll succeed. Sid tried to change his 'chocolate boy' image with EV but he didn't really succeed. People didn't admire him for successfully pulling off a different kind of role, instead, people were just glad that he showed some signs of acting in that film.

Talking about the lineups, honestly, lineups do not determine anything. Eventually everything boils down to how good a movie performs AFTER its release. Fitoor looks promising. At least ARK is signing movies on his own with different PHs instead of chiefly relying on the likes of Kjo & Dharma to do him favors.

I have started to feel this ashiqui franchise is jinxed for its actors

As much as i like ARK, i think he will fade out and disappear. Dawaat-e-Ishq has flop written all over it and fitoor may flop as well, if it ever sees the light of the day. He has no other projects post that.

People have moved to sid, varun, arjun etc who are lined up with better projects.

I have doubts that shraddha would sustain either. Just like the ashiqui 1 star cast



____________

much as i love Aditya, i have to agree with the above.

The glamour world is no place for laid back types. Unless you are Gods own.
and projects, hits, godfathers fall into your lap - (Alia Bhatt).

And if one thinks about it - Aditya Roy Kapoor is THE MOST GIFTED in terms
of charisma, looks, charm and talented too. he also has such a lovely persona
- the kind who wouldnt hurt a fly. So very rare in a business such as glamour
world.

If Aditya pulled up his socks and made half the effort, Alia, Ranveer Singh,
Varun especially do, he would become the BIGGEST male star..he stands
head over heels over the others in every department, except maybe Ranbir
is more talented than him and Varun can dance better

I just hope and pray this guy gets his act together and lives up to his
potential. After a long time, Bollywood gets an all rounder and he is
letting his opportunities slip through his fingers...

God help us if Aditya is as stubborn as Abhay Deol and sticks to his guns
about wanting to live life on his own terms and not succumb to Bollywood
dikdats...he might as well accept his future too going the Abhay deol way
except he has so much more going for him than Abhay. in terms of what
a Bollywood hero should be like, that is.

^ Well, we should consider the timing as well. When Sid, Varun didn't have movies and Arjun Ranveer were giving flops, no other newbie did great that time. But, right now all the newbies are in good place, a dud would affect more for ARK than the duds/lull affected Sid, Varun, Arjun, Ranveer last year.


______________

Absolutely.

When ARK debuted there were no high profile other debutants around..


now just look at the line up..and theyre not just outsiders like Sushant and Rajkumar
Rao who work their butts off to make a mark...theyre all backed by family filmi
background people..

varun, arjun, tiger

these guys are also doing action comedies which janta likes to lap up...

theyre all dancing and fighting and doing stunts and gathering huge fan
bases

what has Aditya shown he can do except do emotional scenes? and look
good? You have to show the investors you can do any type of movie, and
draw in crowds for them to consider casting you..who will go to A who no
one knows or hears anything about except a long ago film, when B to IJKL
are all vying for your attention and roles and lobying for it? Then Sid Roy
has to make a film solely for his brother once a year and that too, the Roy
kapoors arent known to do..so where does that leave Aditya?

sushant and rajkumar especially rajkumar is catapulted into different leagues
for their acting, theyre way up there!

they are SO hungry for success!

any new project is gonna first be offered to the tried and tested Ranbir
Ranveer and then only it is gonna come the way of Sid, Varun, Arjun
Tiger, If its performance oriented Rajkumar Rao and Sushant will get first
pick...

So where does that leave Aditya? he doesnt even make the effort to show
producers directors ki he can do any kind of role...or that he can draw in
crowds by interacting with fans and being on magazines...


its not a fair world...there is competition in every field now..Aditya cannot
afford to be laid back. he just cannot.

Brilliant post.He ain't going anywhere.The plus he has got is that he is a very good actor and has a sesible head on his sholders.Fitoor is the biggest project out of any that the newcomers have yet and it is definitely going to be a huge success.The role is kind of challenging and it will bring him both critical and box-office success.Milan Talkies looks a great script as well and it has Shraddah as the female lead.So, it should create great buzz and the BO numbers will also be solid.Thats two great movies right there.

As I said before, the only one who seem to be ahead of or rival him at this stage is Shuhsant.With Paani, P.K and DBB ; the guy truly has an amazing line-up

I kind of agree whenever I see the DEI promos and songs I cnt believe that he was the same guy who did A2. I am all for actors to try something new bt he just doesn't seem to fit the role and he doesn't have any chemistry with Pari. That movie just looks pathetic I dnt knw who would wana watch it. I think that always there was something wrong with this guy he has always acted good and has worked with some of the biggests names already bt rarely did he stand out. Its only since A2 that he got his act together and than he did 1 other movie and that's it. Hopefully after this movies he starts doing some exciting roles

Every second day someone in BW forum is written off 😆
Sometimes Sid,varun now ARK and Sushant toh is not even considered enough to be written off too . Noone is a star in these days movie with content and acting no matter has whom will survive and bad movies no matter has who will fail
Case in point Ranbir's Besharaam : it opened well what next was bad hence faded
Queen:Opened slow but good movie survived

In these days either movie need to have good songs like A2 or EkVillain or nice performances like Mardaani and Queen to be hit noone is a star in these ages of multiplexes ..
Aisa hota toh jaiho wouldnt have been bad inspite of Salman Khan and broken records because Salman has fans but it failed where as Kick is blockbuster > Movies work as package not stars anymore
