All the millennial actors are trying to become the next Aamir, and that's the reason they haven't been able to reach the top stop, as first of all, they all suck, and secondly, Aamir is very much still in the game. But no one wants to become the next Salman or next SRK who are fading out. Audience wants to see another massy action hero and a romantic hero who could fill in their shoes. But everyone wants to run behind Aamir for whatever reason.
đ is smart. He knows he can't act so building up his fan-base among the single screen audience was the right thing to do. But there is another actor John, whose action movies take excellent openings around 20 Crores. Audience wants to see him in action avatar just like they used to do in the case of Salman. Item numbers might give the film buzz but they can't pull audience to theatres as they can be watched on YouTube so that's not the reason.
If John chooses his films wisely then he could replace Salman as the next action hero.
