Do you believe there is such a thing as 'star quality'?

Hey!

I have heard many directors or people in general raving about certain actors' star quality.

I heard Sanjay Leela Bhansali say that Aishwarya has that star quality while Rani does not.

Is star quality inherent to a person or is it something that is cleverly manufactured with PR and choice of films?

Are there some people who, no matter how well they do or how hard they work, will never be stars?

What IS star quality? A dimple on the cheek, intense eyes or a witty repertoire of jokes?

Which actors do you think possess this star quality in today's generation? Which actors don't?

Spill.

No. Ive had better service and value at a motel compared to some 4 star hotel attitude on some occasions. Same goes for Michelin rated restaurants. No such thing as star quality.

I think star quality is known as the 'IT factor' and I do believe it exists. I think it has nothing to do with looks or acting, but it has something to do with screen presence as people with great screen presence have it IMO. People who have star quality may look ordinary off screen but on screen they have that magical quality called 'lighting up the screen'. Every single person who has a long career has it.

I think either you are born with it or you slowly groom yourself to be star.

Ash,DP are born star, Shilpa Shetty groomed herself and How!!

If you don't have it in you, PR can't do anything for you. Abhishek is prime example of not born with it and not able to cultivate it via PR

Are there some people who, no matter how well they do or how hard they work, will never be stars?

Yes, Abhishek and vivek Oberoi ( strangely both relted to Ash somewhere!!)

Someone who commands attention and you don't look elsewhere when star is around. SRK has piercing eyes, DP and Ash have angelic presence, Ranbir has irresistable charm - Am only talking about those who I have seen IRL

Which actors do you think possess this star quality in today's generation? Which actors don't?

Ranbir, Tiger have star qualities. Sid M is boring, IMO

Spill.

There is something like that. It isn't just looks, it isn't just talent either, maybe a sort of screen presence..
Anyway anyone who is an A lister now is an example of this elusive 'star' quality and it varies from one to the next. Only common thing is every single one of them is there cz they have that X factor no matter what people who dislike a certain star might say..

if person's stars are shining very bright then tat is may be star quality lol

When I was 4-5 years old and I used to hear about stars and super stars, I used to look in the sky as I felt they used to also shine like them or may be stars would be named after them 😆

Jo mujhe acha lage woh star, jo nahi woh bekaar😳

Yes, absolutely.

Star quality is perhaps the aura or the magnetic pull which attracts people towards the person. Some stars are able to put it across to the audience and some arent. I think its something which the person cultivates from within, the kind of body language, mannerisms and confidence the person can generate. AB, SRK, Akshay, SK,KKK, KK and so many have it.
