Hrithik was so huge and so complete as a starr that his competition killed others as all of them lacked the quality of being a superstar.
Hrithik was never even considered a competition for AB jr or shahid instead Hrithik is always compared with Khans. .

I think apart from Hrithik only actor who debuted in 2000 era and enjoyed solo box office success and a massive following is Emraan Hashmi. . Yes Emraan isn't considered a superstar but he was a hit machine. His box office ratiois as good as many big stars

Oh I forgot about Emraan Hashmi but he wasn't taken very serious as an actor and his movies weren't much respected since media gave him a tag of serial kisser and he mostly ended up doing erotic movies. Coming to the topic, I don't think HR had anything to do with others actors failure, it's true that HR is more handsome and talented than the rest of the actors but that doesn't mean they flopped because of HR, most actors at that time didn't have the support that HR had because HR's dad always supported his career a lot and even produced movies for him but others actors didn't have that advantage at that time.

Every single decade has actors that try out and only a couple shine while everyone else fails. We just don't remember them as much because there was no social media and none of us lived through those eras.

Uday had a far bigger and richer dad who was the biggest producer in the country and Abhi's dad was the much bigger actor and could get any film for his son. Hrithik's dad was bankrupt when they made KHNPH and Hrithik brought back their golden days.

A lot if people say Hrithik is a superstar because of his dad but thats not the case its the other way round. Hrithik's films worked because he was more talented and watchable than rest of the star kids of that era. He would debut with farhan akhtar film if he wouldn't do KHNPH, if he would not do that film his father's production house would be closed.

I think the industry can only have 8-10 stars at a time. The khans were almost in their prime at that time(popularity wise) and Akshay and Ajay were also having a good run, so, there wasn't really much space for many others to survive. HR couldn't be ignored, because of looks and talent and also because his father produced films for him, when his career wasn't going anywhere and so he made a space for himself. Shahid and Emran have still survived. There just wasn't anymore space for others. Too much competition, too few positions to take.
Now, the khans are ageing like anything, doing fewer and fewer movies. So, other actors have a lot of chance, and still there are just a handful who are really crowd-pullers. I guess this is the rule.

Uday and Abhishek are not that good looking and charming, Uday was mostly doing supporting roles even on his dad and brother's production movies, so he didn't get much good opportunities as he could've got because of his dad or brother and Abhishek mostly got offers because of his dad's fame but Big B never produced movies for Abhishek like HR's dad produced movies for him, I am not saying that HR didn't' have merit or he became superstar because of his dad but I don't think his success doesn't have anything to do with other actor's career not doing well, if that's the situation, then no actors in the 90's would become superstar when SRK was giving back to back hit movies and most other actors were giving back to back flop movies, I don't know how big producer HR's dad is but his dad gave him some big breaks throughout his career, movies like KHPH, Koi Mil Gya and all the Krish sequals were produced by his dad, so his dad have lot of contribution on his career but other good looking actors like John Abraham, Shahid Kapoor, Arjun Rampal, Piyansh Chatterjee or Vivek Oberio didn't have this advantage.
