In terms of stardom -
Both are new so shouldn't compare as their stardom will increase/decrease slightly with each film

In terms of acting -
Varun has found his strength in comedy and dance and making good use of that in all his films. Badlapur will test his serious acting to the potential.
Sid has taken up more mature roles according to his look and is improving with each film. Hopefully, Brothers might be his breakthrough performance.

In terms of commercial aspect -
Badlapur and ABCD2 both are looking good commercial projects. Only the release dates make me sceptic. One is releasing during WC, other during Ramzan.
Brothers will be Sid's highest grossing film till now, no doubt about that.

Wishing bolder and braver roles to both of them!!😉

Oh so I guess since this is directed to me I need to elaborate Varun's brand endorsement thing well the only inactive brand is the WeChat one with Pari. I didn't even counted Idee glasses & Coca cola as those were SOTY trio ads 😆. Besides that Varun endorses Nestle fruit juices brand, Gatsby(earlier gel currently deo),Ponds menz range, Panasonic smartphones(watch cricket matches it comes after every over 😆 ) and recently he has been signed for Metro shoes he shot for the Ad few days ago (Hmmm...I see Panasonic & Ponds aren't 'Popular' brands rightt... )
Honestly I have seen Sid only in that Bru Ad with Anushka(where he replaced Imran I guess)
As for Screen awards nomination ;well even though I hated Bang bang I can't deny that HR carried that entire crap film the critics said the same so why not, I don't know if you are purposely ignoring the fact, lemme tell you Sid was hosting Screen awards still didn't got a nomination 😆 Anyways I don't really care about others but glad that Varun got one!! 😳
On a serious note I do agree that every actor has a different strategy & approach on how they want to go about there careers respectively!!

I picked up bits from evrywhere, didn even remember who has said what but since u hv decided to quote me and yourself.😛okay..and i don stalk Varun so i didnt remember the brand names, i did mention phone and Ponds men i dint evn know that..still doesnt change the fact what i said if u even understood😆...Ayushman and others have many brand endorsements as well but that doesnt depict if ppl r going 2 watch ur film and stardom and fan following..about screen awards yea Sid is hosting screen award which is why he is there..Parineeti has been hosting many shows which is why she is there...ur either performing,"getting" an award or performing..so? If it ws about credibility wouldnt he get an award for the same category..he got an award for Humpty in one and on the other for comical MTH so thy r confused and just wanna respect u..😆 about BangBang i didn watch it so i shudnt hv picked on that..

It is way too early to decide which has more stardom since they are both just beginners and seen on the same level. As for fanbase, I do think people in real life know of Sid more because he is considered better looking. I don't think Sid is a wooden face or whatever because I think he is a subtle natural actor. I never understood the reason for some actors who overact or be so dramatic in every scene. Being dramatic isn't acting. Playing a character naturally is acting..which is more the hollywood approach.
But in terms of acting, I do think Varun is a superb actor. He is honestly amazing. I did enjoy his comedy acts but I honestly think he can pay serious so well. The little I saw of him crying/being sad in his movies..it all feels so real. And another advantage he has (besides being a star kid) is that he is an amazing dancer. And dancing can take you far!

But I hope both of them do end up having a bright future. We need both in the industry!

More films doesnt mean big star 😆..i m sure thr is.so muuch work now for youngsters that Sid cud hv done 4 5 films a year l..and any tom dick and harry film but he is doing 1.2 max..bcs thts his strategy...it might or might not work..

And coming 2 endorsments as well..Sid has selected very few but the top notch brands tht he endorses...KwalityWalls,Bru,CokaCola..and now IDee and AquaMagica..indias first proper theme park who has seen a positive return and will soon feature him in an add..

The IChat app thing Vd did wid Parineeti..is it closed..also the hair gel and mobile phone he endorsed..i hvnt seen them or maybe thy r not running now,they are not very popular brands so like Ayushman who endorsea PizzaHut u will see him but.might not hv an impact..

and coming 2 "hosting and charisma" Varun sounds kiddish when he talks esp when he was talking about why we should watch Badlapur..his voice doesnt let any1 take hum seriously and once Sid gains confidence like Sallu he will also b goood bcs he has a stable and mature voice..

Finally coming 2 screen nomination, what did Hrithik in Bang bang do 2 get a nomination..if HTP ws more than an average wouldnt Sid get a nomination too and its also wid who is present😉


Even tushar kapoor had done so many movies as a lead in the begining. Where is he today?lol

about hosting...well if you hear varun speak you feel like he is better suited in bhojpuri films😆

lol for that member who is saying Varun needs to get a hit without Alia must not know that MTH was a hit and he was opposite two unpopular non A list actresses.
