Shahid SLB would be a superb combo...and if DP were there it would just be even more fun. I'd look forward to that

Only 2 kinds of people work in SLB films: those who can ham away to glory & go OTT or those who are wooden and only there to look pretty, and there's like 1 supporting character in 5 of his movies that's somewhat decent.

Ranbir's acting talent, which is already being held hostage by delays, etc. would be wasted with someone of such shallow and stale calibre. In fact, I don't wish it on Shahid either and Ranveer toh needs to stay away from him like the plague. SLB should find himself some newbies to ruin and leave the people who want to act for better stories than Romeo and Juliet 500th edition.

Ranbir's failure has nothing to do with bad script sense. He was actually very smart about it. It all backfired.

Besharam was supposed to be the movie which established him as a superstar. So there the script wasn't supposed to be important but the movie was vulgar.
BV was supposed to be the movie which would confirm his position as a versatile and talented actor. Anurag's idea was very good to begin with but he changed the movie along the way to put more focus on Ranbir and Anushka.
Tamasha was supposed to be a sure shot, what with his reunion with Deepika. But his past failures and fading star affected the movie and people wanted to see more of Deepika than Ranbir.

Maybe Ae Dil Hai Mushkil will work out and give him that much needed break. There is nothing than a drama/love story to do so imo.

Signing a film based on the genre or director is not what i would call smart..He signed Besharam just for the sake of doing a masala film and probably assumed anything with masala sells..But even commercial potboilers need a script..They need to be entertaining to do well..Why will someone who has done a Barfi or a WUS or a Rocket Singh sign Besharam is beyond me..That is not what i would call good script sense..You are just assuming it'l do well cos its masala and the director is coming off a blockbuster..Ditto with Tamasha..Am pretty sure he signed the film cos its Imtiaz..What Ranbir needs to do is look at the script..Not the director..If he did, he wouldn't have rejected a KPC and signed a Besharam..Anyways, hopefully he has learnt his lesson cos even in crap like Rockstar and Tamasha, he was fabulous..So as a fan, i believe he deserves better and hopefully better sense prevails 😆

Completely agree with Basilisk. Shahid-SLB is an excellent option & ive a feeling their work styles are rather similar! Shahid is such a bloody good actor & it is his time now so would love to see these 2 together. Ranbir-SLB is another great option. He's the only one who can salvage him now, when I saw Roy for 20 mins I couldn't believe this was RK.. He was pretty awful in that movie.

LOL common 😆 If Hirani or Basu cannot salvage him, i highly doubt SLB can..The same SLB made SRK and Ash ham away to glory in Devdas..The same guy made trash like Saawariya..So no, i think we are giving him way too much credit here 😆

SLB needs to stick to Ranveer and leave everyone else alone.

^ He makes bad movies, not bad actors lol. The same SLB made Ash act very well in HDDCS & SRK while I love him, was a badly cast Devdas but then I hate Devdas in general so am not the best judge. RK was very praised for Saawariya so even if you dislike his movies you've to understand that he really is good at extracting performances firm actors. Am keener on Shahid-SLB anyway so meh

Ranbir has delivered 4-5 flops in a row including the biggest disaster in BW history to his (dis)credit. SLB just delivered one of the biggest grossers in BW history which also was a critical hit(though this part is unfathomable to me). Any other actor in his placed would give an arm and leg to work with SLB again especially when he started his career with him. But only Ranbir fans (and him) have the luxury of rejecting him. Wah re kismat! Dont stress yourself. With JJ, ADHM, Dutt and Dragon to shoot for Ranbir has no time to spare for SLB.

@bold- I dunno if that was a dig or compliment 🤣

Who cares about 'biggest grosser in BW' when it was an utter and complete piece of trash? 😆 I for one actually want to see actors in good movies, doesn't matter who it is, Ranveer, Shahid or Ranbir. It couldn't be more obvious at this point that the 'work with so and so director' thing is no guarantee anymore, box office wise or quality wise.

SLB's worst has to be Devdas, that was a cringe fest, even now if I come across on tv I go eww 😆 Srk hammed like no tomorrow and that agonising chant devaaa 🤣 Sarat Chandra's novel was massacred and how. Bimal Roy made a classic with Dilip Kumar ...I hated Sawariya too can't believe producers gave him that much money to waste, there was no plot, story nothing. Ihave only seen parts of Ramleela and yet to watch BM. Havent liked HDDS either so there u go ... No Slb film for Ranbir plsss.

One director I would like to see Ranbir work again would be Shimit Amin, pls RK if u have to lobby for a film go and convince Shimit to make a film with u.
