I am a RK fan. I still think.. he can't pull off an out n out Action movie.


He just wouldn't look the part. In Rajneeti, He played manipulative, cold blooded guy. It was all in his demeanor. There wasn't many actions he did in it though.

Even a poor actress like Kareena manages to give a over the top on the lesser side in Talaash after playing similar roles in Chameli.What is so challenging on playing the same roles again and again?

I agree on the fine actor bit but how often can you see him play the same role.

ADHM mein toh hadh hi hogayi...poora ka poora Rockstar track ghused diya.



Isiliye humne nahi dekhi. ADHM from the time of trailer, looked a repeat from him & Anu. He playing same old carefree kinda guy & Anu playing Akira (jthj) again. 🤔
And anyway, I don't watch movies based on favorites, toh I skipped. 😆

Though I agree, He and Anu deserve some bashing for doing a stupid movie & then playing same old same old crap. Bajate raho. 😛

By playing so called Manchild , he has won "Best actor" awards and huge appreciation from people and colleagues.
That way I can call entire SRK career as "spreading arms", Aamir as social worker and Sallu as non sense.
Too much of generalization isn't good at all.

ohh ok. Well, Ayan's superhero movie is coming. So, Let's see.

Though, it doesn't matter to me if my fav can't excel one genre. It's fine. I would still call RK versatile.
I like RS too. But I think he can't pull off Barfi. Similarly, RK can't do justice to Action movies.


Oh my my, what a coincidence ..I was just thinking of how RS and RK can pull off almost all the roles that the other played with just as much ease...But yes, it is a bit weird to imagine RK in BM and RS in Barfi...but every other character that they played is easily interchangeable...Imagine RK in 'Lootera'...imagine RS in Rajneeti or for that matter even ADHM...Especially RK in 'Lootera' would have been just as lovely...

Absolutely agree though, that not every genre is for every actor and RK or RS are no exception...But they are still my favorite!

Ohh so you like both of them too. We are anti-thesis of RK vs RS fanwars. I mostly laugh at these threads trying to prove who is better. They are neck to neck in talent.

They can interchange lot of their roles. Yet like you said, RK in BM, and RS in Barfi is difficult to imagine. I think.. together, they cover all genres. 😆 and so, For me, these 2 from younger generation, complete BW.

Look at their first 13 films...bahut variation dikh jaayega...from romance to action to comedy to negative role.

Comparison hi nahin banta hain iska with Khans

If one is a pure movie lover, its hard to like one and not like the other when both of them are such good actors...They are the two actors who are not only going to take the BW into the next 10 years but also relieve us of watching repeated performances from he same old thakela actors who have kind of taken over the BW like forever and pushed it into mediocrity...
