Do you think this is same kind of downfall which once Rajesh Khanna & Amitabh Bachchan had after their films starting failing at box office?

2016 - Dear Zindagi - Semi-Hit

2017 - Raees - Semi-Hit

2017 - JHMS - Flop/Disaster

Why is SRK having such a bad time, big directors, production house, even own funding, big heroines, big release dates, everything, still no single HIT?

Dekho, I don't think everyone follows the same pattern of downfall but yes, I think SRK's time is up to a major extent. What the "he will bounce back!!" people (I include every fan of older actors in this) miss is that it's far easier to bounce back as 30-40 year olds. At fifty, everything must be sustained and decided carefully to an extent. I also think ke people miss one very important thing in this discussion. That is, SRK's ageing. Maano ya na maano, SRK has been ageing terribly. BW is so much about looks and glamour. I am no fan of Salman but in the Kashmir half of Bajrangi, he looked so good onscreen in black attire. SRK has not been ageing as well. My fave Aamir is botoxed but he looks okay onscreen and doesn't do romantic films. All his romances are subplots. When you ask a badly ageing actor to romance a young actress onscreen, it won't work. Unless it's some kind of a fantastic plot, it's not gonna work. Aur since SRK's biggest strength has always been his romantic films, he is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Ab romance kare ya masala kare? What do people want from him? He doesn't get it at all.

Finally SRK is definitely on a downward spiral and this film, in particular, was a bokwas decision as usual. Audience faith is a very important thing. He has been doing such bad films for years that it's pretty much an impression that his film will be bokwas. Salman ki baat alag hain, he has a different sort of fanbase. SRK and Aamir actually had a shared fanbase once so I know. SRK's viewers have lost faith in him. Ab can he get it back? In theory, yes of course. But I don't trust him to make the right decisions after seven years. If ALR can save him, he can make a comeback. Otherwise, he is done as a top star. Uske fans sirf social media par chillate dikhayi denge about his "global stardom".
