Last time I checked Sanju was a bigger grosser than Padmaavat and Simmba, so don't know how audience is choosing Ranveer or Ranbir.😆 And before someone cries Raju Chacha, Raju Chacha, then I remind you all that SLB or Rohit Shetty are not some newbie directora.
Now even if you say that Raju Hirani has a 100% track record, then also Raju's all previous big Blockbusters before Sanju are only with Aamir Khan. Munna Bhai series is not that big at box office compared to 3 Idiots, PK or Sanju. Heck, Sanju is actually a bigger Hit than 3 Idiots which is arguably the most loved film of the 21st century.
So Sanju with Ranbir earning as much as Aamir Khan films, that too without a single holiday makes it's success much bigger.
Obviously now some will cry that it was the content which made Sanju Blockbuster blah blah. As if Padmaavat and Simmba didn't earn that much because of content.😆Not
to forget both movies got advantage of Republic day and New Year Holidays.
One might argue that Ranveer had two successful movies last year, while Ranbir only had one. That point doesn't hold much value because Sanju took a 30 Crore+ opening like a Khan film, which is yet to be done by Ranveer, Varun or Tiger. That is enough to prove that public likes Ranbir more than Ranveer. And the two movies of RS working at box office doesn't make him a bigger star, because he's still not a bigger crowd puller than RK. Because saying that is like saying Ayushmann is a bigger star than Tiger because he had two small Hits last year, in comparison to Tiger's one Blockbuster Baaghi 2.
