If her contemporaries are getting similar work and opportunities and if alia still overrides them performance wise, than Ok. but they don't get the same work. I am still waiting to see her contemporaries in the right films. and please this has nothing to do with their choices and all that crap.
how is her ability to outperform others determined if equal opportunties are not given? and how am I able to classify an actress who is up one level of her contemporaries a star just b/c she gets better roles?
huge proof to this..is alia being compared already to priyanka, kareena, and deepika, they have been in the industry for years
@bold@ completely agree.
@red: exactly. We cannot gauge same success unless other actresses getb similars 'star-driven' 'character-driven' roles and movies and are promoted as heavily as she is.
I mean look at KJo- he even poromotes 'couple' Alia and RK at a Wedding !
..that is how much he is intent in making Alia (and RK) be the BIG league, the Top Dogs.
He's been shamelessly doing that everywhere for years.. Any chance he gets.
Until I see another actress promoted, helped, pushed and supported with good roles and movies.. I cannot really compare.
Looks wise she also looks okay..like a very young girl.. but not..'exciting' if you want.
As an actress she is competent, but not 'exciting' either.
She is well liked because her promotion,PR, family money and all that jazz push her constantly and create this 'benign' image of her beign sweet and goodie- not saying she's outright a bad person..just not the 'angel' she's portrayed..I am sure she did a lot of bad/silly stuff that was covered up fast.
And her movie choices- always chosen by KJo and team.. so no.. she isn't choosing herself. That's part of the PR of 'look how great ALia is'.
