Yrf & Dharma kids they are, they hardly can survive outside production films.
Varun's biggest hit is with UTV. ABCD 2. Also his dark film with a director who'd never had any successful films in his 20 years long career finally got a successful film with Badlapur. Varun's only done 2 Dharma so far. He doesn't get Sid treatment. He has done films with Balaji, Maddock, UTV, Red Chillies etc. also doing his next NGE.
Even BOI credited Varun's rising star power.
Ranveer being YRF kid only has 2 major hits both being EROS films. 😆 YRF have only harmed him honestly besides his debut BBB. Phantom, Excel did him more favour. 😆
Aamir took 6 years to deliver his first Blockbuster. SRK didn't have any BB till DDLJ came. They also took their good old time. Yeah they took over quicker. Because Bachchan, Dhamendra, Rajesh K were the biggest stars before and they were long gone when Khan's came and after them it was only mediocre stars with limited appeal such as Anil K, Sanjay, Jackie S etc... They didn't have the craze like 70's heroes.
Cannot credit Dharma or YRF for these guys. Coz in 90's Rajshri, Dharma, YRF, Dharshan were major producers/PH and they backed up Khans too. Funny enough these new guys don't even get the biggest films of those PH nowadays. It's the Khans/Kumar/Roshan who gets a Fan, Sultan, Dhoom or Brothers, Agneepath
