I don't think many are "self-made", a lot of these actors have background support. We all know Katrina had Salman, Deepika was a popular socialite/model, Ash was Miss World.

So I don't think anyone can be 100%, somewhere theres always a connection. Even with Ranveer, he's a distant relative of Anil Kapoor, who knows maybe he helped him out?

I think self-made is a term that should be used loosely here, because you just never know! I have heard some ministers support certain actors/actresses. So I'll say NOBODY is self-made, just lucky with good contacts.

But again- that's self made too na!
not like they are famous superstars kids and got it on a platter
1) if salman liked Katrina- she HAD it in her to make him like her 👍🏼 not easy to impress a guy whose last gf was one of the most beautiful women on the earth and NO, its not just sex as he can have it with any one- he literally liked her and stayed with her- so credit goes to kat for that
2) Deepika had it in her to become a supermodel, again- its her talent 👍🏼
3) Ash was gorgeous enough to be crowned miss world- again it was on her own 👍🏼
how can we not call all these self made?
also if dpad wasn't asked for an audition- she again HAD it in her to make people take her without any audition!
and I don't include casting couch else poonam pandey would be a superstar today!

I like them all. SRK, Big B, PC, Aish, Deepika, Kangana, Vidya, Ranveer. All of them are so inspirational and so graceful. I like that humility they have towards their success as well.

Ranveer for me, even though he maybe a distant relative of Sonam Kapoor and have a few friends who made it big in the industry (eg: Shaad Ali), I find the way he talks about his journey truly inspiring! And I think his love for the profession has got a lot to do with it. I stumbled upon this video last week, and wow I want to hear about his journey in even more detail after this:

Apart from Ranveer, I admire Priyanka Chopra for how much she has achieved :)

Wasn't Deepika a famous model before entering Bollywood. And her father was a famous tennis player. This obv gave her an opportunity to enter Bollywood. Same with Anuska..a model. These girls were chosen based on their good looks..I wouldn't call that self made.
Aish and PC were picked because they were Miss World. I wouldn't call that self made.

Srk, Amitabh and Kangana are the ones who are self made. They had to audition and Amitbh and Srk were told many times they were too ugly to be actors..and it's obvious Kangana went through a lot of struggles to make it on the A list. When you don't have the model looks..it's hard to make it in Bollywood. Akshay is another actor who is self made.

Vidya had it easier than Kangana because Vidya was already a TV actress before entering Bollywood.
