It is the first time I have read that Aamir was overshadowed in RDB, DCH, Rangeela and the likes.

If it was any other actor than him in RDB Sidharth wouldnt have even got that brilliant moment.



See Raj80's posts on SRK.

Raja Hindustani was a Lolo vehicle all the way. Critics said it should be called Rani Hindustani. The whole world knows Aamir was given Best actor award that year only to counter his allegation and lure him after he banned awards.

Same for RDB. I wonder how anyone calls it great act. Aamir's Punjabi was as weak as it gets. Not at all authentic.

may be your POV...but critics didn't think the same...these r critics reviews for RDB...not a single criticism on Aamir act...

Thats true! SRK is brilliant in negative roles. Aamir isnt that impressive in negative roles.



I wrote early in this thread that both have had their moments.

But when fans start spinning then recent memory favours Aamir. 😆

SRK always got better reviews than Aamir in early 90s. That's why people like Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam also wanted to work with him.

But yes he spoiled his inage with Dharma/Farah shit. So people try to negate what he did earlier.

NONE of the Khans have done a true negative role. They take any frustrated guy role to compare with Darr and Anjaam! That's not how it is.

SRK terrorised people with Darr and Anjaam. His colleagues had to advise him to stop doing such roles lest his career got ruined. 😆

LOL!

I am a Punjabi myself. So I know better than critics atleast, how much Aamir fit his character or not.

There are very few who got the Punjabi essence right.

I have always loved SRK more than Aamir but I must admit that SRK does overacting in his emotional scenes. Maybe he cant help it, his nostrils flare too much, his voice shakes, but we find it more amusing than emotional. 😆 Hes brilliant in negative roles, thats what made me his fan in the first place after watching Baazigar and Darr in 1993. Hes fantastic as a true blue baddie. ⭐️

Aamir is just the opposite, he does underacting.
He doesnt overshadow the other actors, by playing to the gallery. That is why in many movies his costars or lead heroines appear to overshadow him.
But thats actually his plus point that he lets his costars shine as well, not hog the whole show like a lot of other actors do (not SRK of course)
I also didnt like Aamir in RDB so much, liked Siddharth a lot more in that one! In DCH Akshay was the best as the tragic/romantic guy, Saif was best in being the comical guy but Aamir was the multi-faceted character who balanced out both.

Aamir doesnt have an overpowering personality like SRK, hes more of a gentle, twinkling star who can impress you with flashes of brilliance!

No. They are not. Where did you get that from??



It is obvious!

I don't know why are you changing definitions!

Baazigar for eg is not a negative character. But Darr and Anjaam are. They have no transition or redeeming factors.

PC in Aitraaz is a negative character.

Others are grey or anti heroes. For eg, Earth, Khalnayak, Sunil Dutt in Mother India etc.

A grey character can be negative as well. That is the whole point. Dil Nawaz was not an anti-hero at all. Neither was Aamir.

Do you really think what they did was redeemable??

Aamir got universal critical acclaim for that movie. Almost everyone thought he was perfect to the T. Not just in India but worldwide. I remember my friends being blown away by how natural and to the point he was.

Especially the scene where he breaks down in Sue's arms. It is one of the best enacted scene I have ever seen.
