This is in response to RS vs HR ,I think

SLB is to be blamed..his delay in announcing Padmavati and the relentless PR/hype in the media is making the members post random threads.

The nth big budget commercial by RS could also be the reason some of these threads are opned:P
People like to express themselves in various ways

There was a similar thread for Ranveer vs Hrithik and my vote goes to Hrithik again. That was a dream debut and Hrithik was 👍🏼

I did my obligatory duty to vote for RK, but there's no comparision and competition.
HR was a national craze and Ranbir a 🤬 in Sawaria. I watched Sawaria for Sallu and was sooo disappointed to see Sallu for 10 mins in movie 😭
And ya, I hated Sallu- Sonam pair. I am sure no one liked them and everyone wanted Sonam to end up with RK.

lol this is like asking who had a better first world Cup, or Messi.

note I am not implying Hrithik is Pele of acting or Ranbir is Messi of acting.


LOL

But RK is a Messi fan 😆 .. he takes ARK with him to camp nou for watching leo play 😳

I am sure HR will lose this poll

I was quite young when KNPH released but Hrithik, as everyone else has mentioned here, became an overnight sensation. This was before multiplexes and films ran completely on WOM, and PR/publicity were minimal to non-existent. Every guy in my class was doing the Ek Pal Ka Jeena step and every girl was in love with Hrithik. I don't think I have seen any craze for any new star ever since those times 😊.
On the other hand, I remember Ranbir's debut quite clearly. IMO, Ranbir was good in Saawariya but the film sucked. Bhansali clearly got carried away with his ideas and sets/curtains lol... but Ranbir's song where he dropped the towel became very popular/controversial (Jab Se Tere Naina) because the censors made SLB cut the shot in which his butt was visible, and he did benefit the most out of Saawariya (at least more than Sonam did). Of course people appreciated Bachna Ae Haseeno and Wake Up Sid / Rocket Singh / Ajab Prem more and he became a bigger star towards the 2010/2011 time.

In terms of stardom & euphoric reception, there is no-one who can beat Hrithik. He was accepted, then loved & admired in a way that I doubt any star has till then or ever since. I honestly would not be exaggerating if I say that it was very similar to how I think Rajesh Khanna was received!!! The craze & love was unparalleled. Gone are the days when young debutantes would be received on that scale. And he deserved every bit of it because he looked, danced & acted like a superstar. A confident debut!! ⭐️ Also, the movie smashing all records & wining every award till the year after it's debut not helped to further establish HR's brand-new STARdom!


RK, on the other hand, had the almost misfortune? Of working on a movie directed by one of our best directors, which was panned by the masses & critics severely. People went so far as to say that SLB has lost his touch & became 'blue.' LOL. Yet he shone in the movie & how!! I remember looking at him re-enacting his grand-father's dance steps & I knew, just knew he will be the next superstar!! He was just such a quietly confident, in control performer who had lots of natural talent & it showed!!!


In terms of audience reaction & love, no-one can beat Hrithik, I don't think any star had that. But in terms of talent & rising above the material due to said talent, Ranbir. He's a much better actor than even Hrithik, if only he believes in that again & gets back to doing better movies.
