Is Bollywood still considers SRK outsider? - Page 2

Umm yes. And he actually likes it that way. Shah made it by himself, and he will continue to be by himself. And I think his fans love it that way. Makes me very proud.

24 saal se aajtak log yahi puch rahe hain ke Srk is still outsider aur answer kisi ko nahi mila abhi tak. 😆

Well his daddy won't get him out of a stupid 5 year ban from wankhede.

If he were an insider he'd have never faced that.

If he were from a film family his Pa wud have gotten him holiday release dates.

But the man got it all n also faced that ban on his own. Sans any question

So in a way yes he's n will be an outsider who has sent shivers down the insides of the insiders

Come on.. he has been blue eyed boy of Dharmas and Yashraj, the two biggest production houses in India for the longest time .
Just because he is going through bad times because of his own choices doesn't mean people have been unfair to him.

Word. And better to be an outsider than get everything on a silver platter even though there may not be an ounce of talent. We fans are proud that he has come this far on his own merit and is a known name around the world, proving to be an inspiration to everyone around, showing that grit, determination, hard work and talent will take you through. Hats off to him👏

What I've observed many of his friends are directors, he does'nt have that many actor friends.Though he undoultedly has attained such a place that bw insiders can;t be in the face rude to him like they are to most outsiders, they passively show their indifference to him.Nobody ever supports if he gets into a controversy, even when he is right .But I guess srk is sch a big name that this things do'nt bother him much.I do'nt think the khans rely much on bw insiders backing.But yeah,SRK does face a very slight and passive discrimination.

Barely.

We're talking about one of the biggest superstars in the history of Bollywood. And, SRK falls in quite an elite company: Bajraj Sahani, Guru Dutt, Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Raj Kapoor, Rajesh Khanna (THE superstar), Amitabh Bacchan, Dharmendra, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, and Shahrukh Khan.

He's an outsider who made it, but so was Rajesh Khanna.

The whole debacle about Raaes isn't because SRK is an outsider. That's hardly the case. From Mohabattein to Rab Ne, SRK delivered staggering Hits in between. He's remained the most consistent of all Khans. The quality of his work was declining, but as a star - he was right up there. He still is.

The comparisons haven't helped him - add to that his movie choices, and that's why SRK isn't considered the force he once was. Salman's legendary run right now, which is only toppled by Rajesh Khanna in the late 60s and early 70s along with Aamir's huge hits at the BO have taken a toll on SRK. The expectations are high because his contemporaries are turning the heat.

Fan was bound to fail. It was just a poor movie. Raaes, as good as it may be, can't stand up to Salman's Sultan right now - so it was a good move. Movies like HNY and Dilwale along with colossal disappointments like RaOne and JTHJ doesn't help him either.

He needs to reinvent himself. That's it. His next movies like Raaes, Imti's next, and Aanand L Rai's next all indicate that SRK is going for it.

There was a time when Salman was considered the star in the trio; Aamir the actor; and SRK a mixture of stardom and acting. That was his strength. He's moved away from that image trying to play catch up to Salman. Whereas Aamir has maintained his streak of doing one quality movie after every commercial movie, and Salman continues to play to his strength - SRK forgot what made him great.

Think he's finally realized it.

I don't know . Only they can tell us . But will they even be genuine about it ?? Is anyone even genuine ??

In Rajesh Khanna's era, BW wasnt occupied by star sons and daughters and nephews...most of the stars in those days were industry outsiders who made it on the basis of their talent, looks and good movies made by great directors

Wrong info abt Sallu being topped by Rajesh only...FYI, SRK's success rate is still 2nd only to Rajesh Khanna, Sallu is still far behind

Fan was bound to fail. It was just a poor movie.

REALLY? 😲 Says who? All the major critics went gaga over it, its the Indian audience which failed to appreciate it as it had no songs, dances or heroines. FAN IS A HIT overseas already. SRK has chosen content over masala in Fan but unfortunately the masala audience in India didnt appreciate it

Raaes, as good as it may be, can't stand up to Salman's Sultan right now - so it was a good move. Movies like HNY and Dilwale along with colossal disappointments like RaOne and JTHJ doesn't help him either.

HNY was superhit, Dilwale semi-hit, Ra.One and JTHJ were also hits. So what disappointments are u talking abt? And why did u leave out the blockbuster Chennai Express in between?

Whats the use of his realizing it? When he makes a different movie like Raees, its release is postponed for the sake of masala movie Sultan? Why shd he opt for content when Indian BO only likes masala? CE was a blockbuster so he shd also go for masala to please Indian BO

Is Tiger an outsider? Was Shahid who started as a background dancer to Aish an outsider?

Is Sonam an insider?She seems to be peeping in for years.

Is Abhishek an insider? I see him watching from the fences..I see Vivek Oberoi watching from the other side of the ocean.

PRs of starkids have worked hard using "insider " tag here to use it to give them a leverage in the eyes of wanting to believe members.

nothing more
