I don't agree with her because there are other actors and actresses in Bollywood that are very famous. Like Ashwariya she's gone to Hollwood so I guess "she sells" too. Neha is going all wrong here because maybe because she isn't a very "famous" actress that doesn't mean Shah Rukh is the only "famous" actor/actresse. As for she saying, "sex sells" well I guess in a way it does.😊

Ok well. I don't agree with Neha actually because I know SRK is the baadshah of bollywood but what about Amit-ji and Hrithik and Salman! They are also very famous. But if she means in a physical way then, Salman should be considered a "Sex Shell" as well as SRK! 😊

Back then Neha was not that off with her statement, lots of bolder movies were coming out and some did quite well at the box office. Then there is Shahrukh, he is one of the most bankable stars in Bollywood but he's not the only bankable star. Salman's films make money, as do Aamir's even Akshay is quite popular these days.

The date of the quote says it all.😃
It was true and applied in 2004. That year SRK had Main hoon na, Veer Zaara and Swades...and the one of the other big hits was Murder. Hence, Neha probably felt only sex and srk sell.

Fast forward to 2007. All the sex films have disappeared into oblivion but SRK is still here...with his 6 pack abs for the 'sex' quotient😆

and I'm sure even in the future, trends will come and go, but SRK will still be ROCKING=numero uno!😉
