Will Hrithik finally become No. 1 star after War?

The Khans are in the last leg of their career, Akshay and Ajay have popularity but not enough to become No. 1. Isn't this a good time for Hrithik to become numero uno? One film can turn an actor's career around, as we saw with Kabir SIngh and Shahid Kapoor. So will Hrithik finally come into his own with War? The trailer and song have received enormous buzz, and it looks all posied to become a superhit, if not ATBB.

Will Hrithik rule Bollywood after this year?

War could be Hrithik's Wanted/Dabbang.

But the director is Sid Anand, so that's the only concern.

If HR can follow War with a commercial blockbuster, he'll leapfrog the Khans to become #1 in Bollywood - and it will be between Hrithik and Prabhas for that #1 spot.

Hrithik is 45. Salman was 44 when Wanted released. They're at a similar age. Like Salman, Hrithik has had a quiet decade except for one major blockbuster (Krrish 3) - as Salman did in the 00s (Partner). Like Salman, HR started with a bang and was an instant superstar.

So, the parallels are there.

The only question is if War will be as well received by the public as Wanted was. If it is, HR is set to step into Salman's shoes.

War will flop

And why would you say that? Everyone I know in real life wants to see it in the theatre and online, there's a HUGE buzz. It was trending for like, the longest time.

Director is incapable and has run out of creativity. At best it would be as good as Bang Bang but that ain't good.

Not with the dude who made Bang Bang which was awful apart from the songs

No hritik is not the new salman. Super mega Stardom iwill finish with Salman. He can be a big star like akki ranveer Ranbir maybe vicky etc..

I didn’t have much hope from War but after watching the song trailer, I really no hopes. It looks like a flop, this kind of movies at least need good songs. Hrithik himself can’t carry the whole movie if it’s a disaster.
