Bips helped John? How? She herself was not a big star or A-lister. She always did side kick roles and horror movies. Her career was doomed like 10 years ago. So how can she help John? If she helped John, then why couldn’t she help Dino, Herman or KSG? Why KSG had to go back to TV if she have lot of connections? So I don’t think she helped John for his career. He made his career of his own.

I think the SRK affair was in PC's mind, and I don't believe her stature is big enough to put her in the same league as Sri or MD or SRK or Akshay...ie, she is not a SUPERstar.

Having said that... she had no EMA. SHE was never married during alleged affairs. The men (if one or more of said affairs happened) were the married ones.

In PC’s mind? I doubt. He was closer to her the way he never was with any of the heroine. They had even night meeting, abroad meeting. This is very deep. There’s an article about it but no way it was one sided. She is not Kangu.

Actors - Akshay, John, Govinda, Jackie Shroff, Ajay and Salman. Although Salman and Ajay are star kids but I don’t think they used much of their family connections or depended on big banners.

Actresses - Madhuri, Sridevi, Juhi, Kangana, Rekha, Deepika, Priyanka and Karishma(she didn’t get much support from her families since the Kapoor family didn’t approve girls to enter in Bollywood and neither she got big banners for back up).

Ab Sr

SRK

Akshay

Sridevi

Hema

Since we are talking about superstars ..I have listed those I think made it on their own.....who absolutely had no connections in BW.....and SRK getting help from 2 big banners is such a bullshit that it makes me laugh everytime.🤣....yeah 2 of the biggest production houses were putting their money because someone was sucking up to them...there are millions who suck up to these bigwigs......but paisa lagta hai jinko woh samjhte hain iss kaabil...and they were not wrong...see the hits SRK gave them😎....the big star kids failed and SRK became a success....because he had it...just like Salman has it and his two loser brothers don't .😆...its BW,,,not a dharamkhata ki kissi ke ooper bhi crores laga dega koi...karta toh Salman ek ke baad ek ..newcomers ko launch.....itna promote karta hai aur phir bhi kuchh nahi hota.....🤣....agar bigwigs ke promote karne se log hit ho jaate.....toh Salman ke saare namoone aaj star hote🤣

What big banners and family ties made Salman Superstar Bhai ?.as someone mentioned his own brothers would have become super duper stars with family ties and big banners whatever....he is the Dabaang of Bollywood !hud hud

I’d say akshay kumar 😊

She did actually, even John has said that. Bips was doing fine when she started dating John. Helping doesn't necessarily mean that you go onboard directing a film and cast a person of your choice. She introduced and recommended him to various producers/directors during initial days of his career. About KSG, well she did try to recommend him too but we all know she is no more relevant so who would exactly pay heed to what she is recommending. About the rest of two, I don't think she was serious about any of those so no idea.

Ajay D and Akki are going steady and consolidating,because they didnt depend on big banners and top heroines.Since they started off doing action films,they never needed heroines to tell their story,unlike romantic heroes..

Ajay is technically nepo, unfortunately.

I think in today's world, only Akki. In the future maybe Ayushman. There have been many, including actresses in the past though.

Needs no introduction.

Family ties is fine. But, Nobody made it Big without support of big banners or film families. There r many Banners other than just YRF and Dharma.
