W*F is Anil Kapoor talking about? Did he not see Suraj Sharma in Life of Pi or even Dev Patel and Frieda Pinto in Slumdog Millionaire or Neil Sethi in The Jungle Book? they are young boys and girls that started their career in Hollywood so what he's so eagerly been waiting for has already happened. I don't understand why he's discrediting people that were already stars in India that are now getting success in Hollywood too.

Naseeruddin Shah is pretty negative too. I hope he gets proven wrong!

its just sour grapes, the guy couldn't make it himself, did all hoopla for his 2min role in mission impossible like he is the next best thing out there when irfan has done much more work and much better work but yeah he was going gaga over himself, his PR was on fire for 2min role and he also took credit for slumdog like he was the lead there when he wasn't and was there again for just few minutes.

' I don't want to make a fool out of myself.'

u already did anil babu now go and make 24 for hindi audience on colors which will get 0.5 trps, that's all u can do nothing more. 😆

Anil Kapoor behaves as if he is some veteran hollywood actor.Except for a 5min appearance there is nothing noteworthy.
Naseerudin has always looked frustrated.Though I agree with his opinion on those returning back.

But they aren't big stars, are they ? So Anil is right imo.

N. Shah might be negative but he is hitting a nerve. Why do some actors crave to go to Hollywood when their roles back home are meatier ? Zhang Zi Yi and Gong Li are still regretting stepping a foot there. They realized that they had better roles in China than in America were they were typecasted.

Hollywood is a good option if it's end up being interesting financially.

He's made more than a five minute appearance in Hollywood. He's done movies and television. I believe that (before Priyanka), AK was probably the most recognizable Indian actor in the United States.

why does it have to be a new person though?

"When someone who has just started her career and her first film happens to be a Hollywood one. It will happen. Someone will definitely become a huge star. That's success for me."


So if a successful Indian star becomes and even more successful global star that's not considered success for him?

[quote]Did you know Naseeruddin Shah refused an audition for Albus Dumbledore? [/quote]

What baffled me was this question. 😆

Just read that article, he says he refused to audition for Dumbledore. Oh boy! 😆

So outrageously sore they are!

DP's HW career hasn't kickstarted yet and PC is currently enjoying the best position any BW actor has ever gotten in HW!

They're jealous of girls young enough to be their daughters! 😆

Frustration is understood, and obvious.
But Nasser isn't wrong. They'll return back soon.
