Exactly, this shows he's versatile, and willing to explore, but some no matter what don't give him credit !!
Regarding the movie despite competiton and less screens in the south ( and not even dubbed) this movie stood its ground !!

Movie was fantastic. Lekin bhul gaye kia..Pak me utube ban hai...

The success of BB proved that Salman is undisputed No.2 superstar of Hindi Cinema.

I would add more:

- take up universal themes
- keep it simple, subtle, natural, instead of going preachy with hero giving lengthy speeches
- keep a good balance between realism, dream, drama, comedy, wisdom, emotion...make it seamless (most films can't manage it and just end up looking like khichdi)
- Hirani isn't just the only good filmmaker and entertainer, Kabir Khan has also joined the league!
- Salman can act, deliver the goods and do wonders if director channelises the right way
- child artistes shouldn't be underestimated, they can be awesome if tapped properly and given proper characterisation
- you do not always need item songs or skin show to make a film hit
- you do not need heavy budgets, special effects, show off, fancy embellishments or hi fi guest appearances to make film hit
- you don't always need massive marketing or carpet bombing the media to make a film hit
- you can use background cast also effectively to add meaning to your story
- you can use stereotypes without actually stereotyping your characters
- audience responds most to hope, than to mere titillation
- audience loves its superstars but is also game for good content
- WOM is the king. Good WOM is greater than any other publicity
- audience has to be engaged so that it laughs or cries along with your characters, it doesn't have to be just attracted to theatre
- you can make a clean film (without expletives etc) hit even in today's times, families, youth etc all lap it up if they like it

If not for the other BB(Baahubali)...bhajrangi would have beaten PK...👏
