Good question. Are any of the Khans popular with the younger generation?

That's a good question.. Whenever I ask a pesky Gen Z kid..They give me the same answer as I used to give to my father about Amitabh Bachchan..


That he's old and not happening anymore


which hurts me very much

Not sure about Generation Z but I’ll be whispering SRK’s name into my future babies ears the moment they’re born. I’ll begin this parampara and convert every baby in my lineage to SRKIAN-ISM!

Oh ok


They must know who Srk is. Most probably like his films perhaps the older ones.

Fairly popular but not the craze he was to those of us alive and kicking in the 90s. I still maintain that SRK needs to do a kick ass web series, like a Sacred Games or a Pataal Lok and play an anti-hero in it. That's when he shines and it will be a back to the basics moment for him as well. The youth will respond well to that kind of authenticity and his charisma, which let's be honest, hasn't really come through in dreck like Harry/Sejal and Zero,


I think Anil Kapoor has really cracked the code when it comes to remaining relevant and doing interesting work. SRK needs to get on it!

SRK is not relevant to Gen Z at all anymore. Nothing since CDI and OSO has appealed to younger generation and he does seem older to them. Gen Z is more keen on Varun, Ranveer, Ranbir, Vicky, Tiger or watching web series, YouTube content creators, Netflix, Amazon Prime.

Frankly anyone who has seen international content on Netflix, simply stops watching Bollywood or desi TV serials.

Aamir was liked till 3 Idiots. But he does too few films now so even he is less relevant though he has some respect for content he chooses. Despite his last film being a disaster both commercially and content wise.

Salman is the only one from old gen who is relevant due to Bigg Boss. But he is considered old as well.

Today 90s stars are as relevant to new generation as Rajesh Khanna or Vinod Khanna were to 90s generation. Nobody cares.

At the most one can watch their old films when they were younger but no one likes their new films.

My cousins born after 1998 cared for OSO, CDI only. Never seen them talk of SRK afterwards. They outgrew him and do not like his films now, also think he looks old, jaded.

Frankly speaking today even Tiger Shroff has more relevance due to his stunts, dance skills and physique than any 90s star.

Khans, Akshay, Ajay are discussed only online now by older generation. Gen Z does not care about them much.
