ayan is good director...but the disadvantage is...his focus is more on RK...he needs to work with other actors too...even his film centered on RK...seriously YJHD...i wanted more RK-DP moments rather than the friendship bond that was repeating...after a while...i got annoyed with the over dosage of friendship bond...WUS was superb..

Kjo...KKHH...K3G...are classic..after a while i don't know what went into his head that he start making thrash like KANK...SOTY...by the way i like MNIK...its something different...the moments b/w SRKajol were sweet...

I will choose kjo...becos only he has the power to bring back BW legendary romantic couple SRKajol...i am still waiting kjo to direct SRKajol in a matured love story

ADHM pit jaane ke baad people will say Ayan is a bad director, coz he ruined ADHM. (According to rumors Ayan was supposed to assist, read ghost direct some portions of, ADHM ).

One WUS is greater than all KJo movies.
But I am sucker for KJo bubblegum movies , so voted for KJo. He knows pulse of audience more than Ayan.

Ayan directed Wake Up Sid well, but it felt like he was trying to pull off a KJo-type movie with YJHD, with all the glam and song/dance added to it. While Ayan made Wake Up Sid feel real and relatable - and there was flashes of the WUS Ayan in the friendship part of YJHD, Ranbir's scenes with Farooque Sheikh (personally loved those 2-3 scenes), and the way Illahi was filmed (travelling etc) - but the rest of the movie felt very wannabe-KJo. Its understandable though, Ayan mentioned time and again how he felt very let-down by the limited commercial success of Wake Up Sid and felt that he had to be more 'commercial'.

On the other hand, the thing with KJo is that while he is not the best director in Bollywood, he brings a lot of genuineness to his work. He can ace superficiality with Poo in K3G, heart break (Tujhe Yaad Na Meri Aayi from KKHH), bubble-gum fun romance (KHNH, first part of MNIK before 9/11, even SOTY was watchable even though it was nothing great). He himself mentioned how he thinks KKHH is too cheesy now in his TBIP interview, but that he made the film with a lot of conviction and genuineness.

So though its kind of tough to choose, I'd still go with KJo.
