His voice is hell annoying, as an actor he is okayish nothing great. He made an impression in znmd and bmb cos those were really well written roles. But as a director he is exceptional Dch, Lakshya, Don 1&2 fab!! Should direct more films...

He is not that bad as an actor... Haven't watched Wazir, but he has done quite a variety of roles and he was pretty convincing in all of them...

BMB, ZNMD, DDD...
Only complaint is his voice... Its very coarse when he sings...
Apart from his singing, I think he is good enough in rest of the film making areas.
PS: Offscreen I love his sense of humor..😛

He essentially plays himself in most films. Though he was good in BMB.

I wish he would stop singing though.


This! He does! But I think imran of znmd was the closest to reality

The fact that he and his sister believe he can sing is what pisses me off the most. Like no Farhan you can't sing so stop trying to force it on people. They kept trying to do that in DDD, even the gallan goodiyan song he had his on voice in that and that just ruined it. He can't sing.
Otherwise he has a nice speaking voice, it's very intense.

I don't mind a good actor who can execute well written stories..
And I think he is at a position where he can choose whichever content he wants to do..
I'm glad he isnt stereotyped. I like some of his choices..

He is not the typical BW hero but tons better than the likes of arjun who actually ruin a character from 2states which had potential..

Maybe he should restrict singing to concerts and shouldn't sing in films.

Agree with you - He did well in Bhaag Milkha Bhaag and that was because the character was written awesome. Some of his films like Shaadi ke side effects completely fell flat because he was really misfit in the role. But he is much better and decent actor than most of the newbies.

Disagree.
He is an awesome actor atleast for Indian Movie standards. There are worst and are labelled as superstars 😉 😆without an ounce of an acting.

Dont agree with TM. Farhan is a really good actor, a decent performer.
His acting in LBC, BMB, ZNMD, Rock On and even Kartik Vs Kartik was top notch! 👍🏼
He stood out in a small role in DDD as well.

Hes a very natural actor, doesnt overact or play to the gallery or indulge in dramatic acting, maybe thats why hes not appreciated more by typical Hindi movie audiences.

I like his singing voice too, raspy and sharp, well suited for songs like the ones in Rock On.
And hes an excellent director, loved DCH, Lakshya, even Don 1 was quite good.👍🏼
