I know right. This one is shocking. I don't understand the hype around Alia- she is overrated but still she is better than many others in the list. I liked her in 2 states, and she isn't that bad in her recent films, would have chosen her over Shraddha Kapoor any day.

I didn't add Ranbir kapoor to the list because there were already too many candidates out there who I thought were more deserving than him. 😆 With Ranbir , you have to add other names like Sanjay Dutt, Sunny and Bobby Deol and to some extent even Aamir Khan and Salman khan too. They are all starkids.
Ranbir did get many opportunities for being Raj Kapoor's grandson but still their are certain things which work in his favor
1. He got an opportunity to work with one of the biggest filmmakers in the country for his debut, but others like Anushka, Deepika and even Nargis Fakri worked with very prominent filmmakers in their first film too and that also being outsiders.
2. When he made his debut his parents were not very active in bollywood and I never heard stories about Rishi Kapoor recommending his son's name to any filmmaker. He was not very powerful that time. He worked with his parents much later when he had already established himself.
3. Looks like you don't like Ranbir Kapoor and I respect that. But I find him a good actor very natural and uninhibited on screen. His first film was a disaster in box office but he got amazing reviews.



Good points. But if you are a TM, you need to open unbiased poll. You can sense from the posts that members wanted him on the poll. If you are trying to claim that RK didn't get advantage, then it shouldn't be a poll thread. In that case, you have to open a thread with a statement you like 😊. Then people who don't like Ranbir won't attend the thread and you will stay happy.

Most definitely Sonam Kapoor. Her talent is mediocre. Without her father's name I doubt she would have carved her place in any industry - fashion or films.
I will give her credit for creativity and branding though. She has carved a niche for herself which is commendable.

How difficult is it to put/jhello Ranbir's name in your signature box? Just asking. 😆

I think Sonam.
Without her dad, she could not afford those branded cloths and become a fashionista.

Too bad, she could not get acting genes from her dad!

😃

RK's debut was with a flop shit and he got noticed straightaway!
Even if he was not a Kappor, he could have been a top actor with his acting skills and movie choices. Period.

I agree with you. And no I am not claiming Rk didn't get any advantage. 😃Members who don't like Ranbir, are most welcome to say that in this thread- my problem is technical, In this forum you have only 10 poll choices and you can't add another option even if you want to, that is the only reason I haven't added RK's name on the poll yet.😆 I would have to replace that 'anyone else' option with Ranbir then,and I don't want to do that.

I would say Sonam Kapoor and Sona (what does she have aprat from one Lootera). If Kareena had a helping hand every time she fell down, than what helped PC everytime she had a flop and struggled. Or how did Deepika survivie after OSO with all those flops. Was she a star kid too? Kareena and both Ranbir are talented and that is why they get the chances they got. Same with Alia Bhatt. Not only talented, Ranbir and Kareena have a huge fan following and are considered on of the best actors in bollywood. Why wouldn't directors want to work with them? Too early too tell if Alia has a huge fan following but she is popular and has a good hit record. She might have gotten Highway, and SOTY because she is a star kid, but it souldn't take away from the fact that she is a succesful actor and deserves to be here. Same with bebo and Ranbir.
