Alia is in the middle of a press-tour for her new film. Of course there are articles exaggerating her success. Ranbir, Ranveer, Karthik have all been called the last superstar on their respective magazine covers in the last six months or so. You all don't need to shout PR PR everywhere ☢️

Ranbir, Ranveer Kartik teeno troll hue the for that superstar articles

Forum me bhi discussion hua hai

Aur everyone knows ki it was their PR

Anu, DP, Kat are all self-made individuals who worked hard to get where they're at. And since they didn't have their careers literally catered to them, they did whatever they could to keep their careers and fame running. Including starring in Khan films from time to time. There was a reason why PC Jr was gunning so hard for Sultan etc


Alia at this point has never hustled on her own like the above. She has always had KJo Papa on speed dial to help her. This continuous (almost infantile) hand-holding has now been translated to her "challenging the patriarchy". Lmao. Never mind that she was also looked too young to be paired with the Khans. We can all agree that she would line up for a Khan film immediately on the spot if she could.


I gotta say, her team is doing a really great job....at making her look bad. Yeesh

Absolutely, she wasn’t but her dating Virat was the best thing that happened to her career. No one can convince me that she’d have bagged the films she had from 2014 onwards if not for the brand appeal generated by her relationship with India’s favourite. Anushka would have become like Kriti - not bad but average on all front so not A list material. Katrina also definitely benefitted from being Salman’s girlfriend but the difference is that she has the x factor, has incredible work ethic and has found a niche that she excelled at.

I’d argue Alia has been a bigger star than Anushka since like 2014

Challenged?😳how and when?

Alia isn't even a superstar amognst females, forget competing with the Khan's who have reigned over BW for a long time. Now that they are facing the slump it doesn't mean that Alia is above their peak. Unless of course they are competing with their present flop time😆

Alia is at best a mediocre actress with average skills. She has a cute baby face, nothing else. Its a must for a female star to have sex appeal which she lacks. She is a bad dancer, bad emoter. She just does roles which suit her baby girl persona. Even as Gangubai she performed poorly. KJo and publicists can hype as much as they want but common people are not going to buy it. Alia's popularity is reducing which is why their PR is pushing out such articles.


Katrina has had hits credited to her like MBKD, APKGK, NL, and has many blockbusters. Deepika too created a place for herself and got praise for Cocktail, Chennai express, Piku.

What has Alia done? Only hype by Papa KJo.

There was a running joke about Anushka that her next film will be her big film. An she had hits and acclaim. But that big film claim just never happened 😂

True. When actresses younger than Alia are doing movies with Khans, Kumar and Devgn, Alia has steered clear from romantic roles against them. It doesn't mean she has not been offered roles in platter by KJo nor is it a lie that Kat/DP/ Anu have had their biggest hits with Khans.

Gotta give it to Kat though. Despite having mediocre talent she managed to reach at the top. She definitely had some X factor that’s why majority of the audience accepted her. Hell she was my girl crush at one point, she was literally a barbie doll ❤️ There’s a reason why other foreign girls like Nargis, Jacky, Ellie etc couldn’t quite establish themselves like her.

Yup. I am no fan and don’t care much about her anymore but I remember the times when everyone around me literally was gaga over her, she was everyone’s fav ❤️ That was some raw stardom and back then we didn’t need to look at all these articles to like her or gauge her popularity 😆
