much longer...
I mean, if you look at it, especially from recent posts being made on this forum about "buddha" SRK and "Uncle" Salman ( which I find unnecessary by the way because everyone ages and it shouldn't be frowned upon or used as an offensive term) that the ages of these actors is finally beginning to REALLY show.
And not just SRK and Salman..even Aamir and Akshay.
For the last decade these guys have been cast opposite actresses around ten years their junior, and now when these actresses are reaching their "Bollywood prime" of mid-thirties ( unfair how actresses are shunned after a certain age but actors can play young heros until their f**king 50 š„±, but thats a whole nother issue) they seem to be disappearing... so now where does that leave these aging men? Sooner or later they'll have to play their age AND GOD FORBID they are cast opposite someone CLOSE to their age.
If Kajol can still get meaty roles, then I don't get why Rani ( minus family scenario), Preity, and even Juhi and Madhuri need to be shunned. At least they have the acting ability, something which a lot of these younger actresses lack. And plus, SRK and Kajol look so good, and no one cares if she isn't young and super lean and wrinkle free. I'd rather have that than these awkward age-gap ridden pairs. I only know how awkward JTHJ was for me to watch like W*F.
It's kind of a domino effect, if these young actresses are signing films opposite these more successful older actors the younger actors are left to dry and then can only show their true talent once these older actors back off, and by that time these young actors are no longer young š
I for one wouldn't have minded seeing Madhuri or even Karishma in PRDP instead of Sonam.
Seriously, though how long can these actors run from their age, these actresses need to be brought back.
