Why Vidyut Jamwal failed but not Tiger? - Page 3

If his connection with the audience is sooo good then why didn't SOTY work? 😆

If it wasn't for Hrithik, people wouldn't be interested in War either. Tiger looks like his sidekick in the teaser and rightly so. The guy can't act, doesn't have screen presence and is average looking at best.

Well everyone gives flops and under preformers, that doesn't change their popularity with certain audience. The comparison here is between him and Vidyut, and their genre. Tiger is a more popular name in the action movie scenes than Vidyut Jamwal who has gained the reputation of being a side actor/villain. His movies as lead don't have same hysteria as Tiger's.

War, is still about Tiger vs HR, HR coming back to this genre after years have obviously people turning their head and talking more about him. But core interest of the action loving audience is still Hrithik and Tiger coming together and giving some of the best action scenes.

Obviously he has got better padding, but that padding has also helped him get a launde lapade audience, who have a certain image of him. Since he isn't a good actor, he fails miserably when it is not his core strengths, which results in having flops were the emotional connect is required, eg. underdog in SOTY2, person trying to find his passion in Munna Michael and a superhero in Flying Jatt. From this only Munna Micheal was in his ally, but that movie was so badly made, while his character needed him to act like a person whose desire is suppressed, but he isn't a capable actor at all hence he failed there, and movie eventually flopped.

Obviously he isn't Sallu level star, that every crap he throws will be accepted, since the mass audience doesn't like it when their star acts different from the image they have for him.

While obviously he isn't the biggest star in the country, but he is a legit star with mass connect and following.

Did he get better opportunities than Vidyut? Yes.

But does that mean, all his success and popularity is manipulation of and forcing the audience by a filmmaker? No.

in terms of interest generation and popularity in a certain genre? Yes.

Let's assume Tiger is Akshay Kumar and Vidyut is Manoj Bajpayee.

Imagine Manoj Bajpayee in the movie Jolly LLB vs The State, would the movie have had better performance and critical applause? Yes. But it would have been not reached anywhere the box office that Akki did? No.

Same way Vidyut, just like Manoj Bajpayee doesn't generate the same level of interest and hype, that Tiger does.

Tiger has got a connect with the audience, Vidyut hasn't. Vidyut is seen as a side hero/villain. Him being the main hero, is same as Manoj Bajpayee being lead hero. Some people watch and appreciate, but it isn't in their most awaited movie.

I saw Vidyut's movie junglee. I think he acts better than Tiger for sure. And stunts to dono hi same karte hai.

Tiger ka toh muh sadela hai. Aati nahi jati nahi.. dialogue is so downer and plain and monotonous. Kriti acted better than him in Heropanti.

All these Vidyut supporters here never even watched a single movie of his in theatres I bet. Window shopping sounds soooo good in theory. Carry on.😆

Exactly my thoughts !

Bhai log if u r fans of Vidyut why not watch his movies and make blockbusters? Bade aaye ranting on Forums..😆

Well talent ki baat nahi ho rahi hai, acting talent se hi agar kaam chalta toh Katrina kabhi huge star nahi hoti, aur Konkona Sen wouldn't have been a somewhat forgotten actor.

🤣

It’s the same with people who say salman ruined Viveks career yet don’t go watch Vivek movies when they do release 🤣

Forgot Nepotism?

the way industry shall look at tiger they wouldn't look at Vidyut anyway, still he has managed to do some decent action stuff and has a niche following for himself which i think is good for an outsider without any strong backing. getting films as solo action leads is not less than an achievement in these tough times of competition

I did say that nepotism is a factor. Vidyut didn't get many solo lead films from bollywood. Par jo mili wo bhi to nahi chali. How can we blame nepotism for that if audience doesn't want to watch him either.

Too arrogant for sure 🤣

Firstly, I think it's because of the film choices. Tiger showed his talent in good entertaining films like Heropanti and Baaghi, while Vidyut hasn't been in any good film worth mention.

Secondly, Tiger has amazing screen presence and aura alongside an X-factor, which Vidyut lacks.

Thirdly, Tiger has better masculine voice and dialogues delivery.

Finally, Tiger is a much better dancer

Amazing screen presence, masculine voice, dialogue delivery.😆 Ye kuch zyada ho gaya.😆

I'm not getting it. How is a Producer responsible for Tiger's success? Sajid Nadiadwala is not Kjo or Yash Raj who is popular among common people.
