Was Jeetendra a Superstar?

Was Jeetendra considered a superstar? he never won any awards, but gave so many hits!

He was a hero between 1964 - 1997

Was inclined to deem so but a cursory web search reveals conflicting opinions..

Will wait for Bolly veterans,if any, out here to chime in..

Rosie Franco is one such I think..

I don't know actually. He was the leading star in 80's pobably only behind Amit ji in that period

Was the Akki of his time

I would say yes..he was a huge leading main male lead.

I always remember this movie hearing Jeetendra's name 😆

I don't think he has starred in any watchable film in his career. He was a C list actor I believe.

Watch his Gulzaar movies from the late 60's and and 70's

in the 80's and 90's he did mostly masala movies

Jeetendra's stardom can be compared with SRK's stardom, with SRK might having more edge because of making more impact on audience.

Jeetendra's stardom gets eclipsed because of Amitabh Bachchan's dominance, which effected every Superstar of his era.

He was a superstar, jumping jack of Bollywood, admired by public, popular and his best movie for me is Parichay.

More than a lover boy roles, most of his movie in 1980's are related to family and social issues.
