Hi Radhe!


- Imtiaz was considered amongst one of the best director of this country before JHMS. Almost all his movies to JHMS were either critically acclaimed or big hits at the box office.

Big Hits, Seriously? Check Here, he is big flop Director who make huge loss - https://boxofficeindia.com/actor.php?actorid=489&role=25


- Alia is already a huge star thanks to KJo. You can look around all the paid articles that goes around social media touting her as the best thing ever(courtesy of KJo). I remember when Kalank came out and flopped ar the box office, Alia's PR started spreading articles on social media which read, "Madhuri Dixit's movie Kalank tanked at the box office"...Lol! The movie was promoted on Varun-Alia's name and as soon as it flopped, they made it Madhuri's movie even though Madhuri only had a supporting role in the movie.

Star is made when Ticket Paying Public makes Films Big Hits, i don't think Karan has that power to make Alia's every film Big Hit.


Alia won Best actress award for Gully Boy... she had a supporting role in that movie but still won "Best actress" award. Alia is the biggest beneficiary of nepotism in Bollywood right now. It's okay if she gets movie offers because of her credibility but snatching movies/awards from other actors and playing dirty politics against them is wrong and needs to be stopped.

Awards are always Biased, bogus & unfair. Dharmendra, Rishi Kapoor never won the BEST ACTOR award for any film, while those are the Best Actor of their time. Why cry now who gets what?


- Maybe, it was not Karan Johar... but somebody pulled some strings to help Ananya snatched that movie from Tapsee. Isn't that a privilege. I remember in one interview with Anupama Chopra, Tapsee mentioned that it took 5 years for her to get a interview by Anupama whereas some star kids got to be interviewed even before their first films came out in the theatres. Isn't that a privilege?

Again, things for which you complaining don't make a difference if that Outsider has the ability to win the Audience's heart on his own. Any Outsider can be Big Star with his work, not by giving an interview to Anupama.


- One of the journalists mentioned on Twitter recently that the production departments denied them a solo interview with Sushant and offered him to interview Sara and Shraddha instead of him. Isn't that a privilege? How these star kids are pushed forward at the cost of these outsiders?

Did this affect SSR's Acting capabilities in any way? He had Talent, shown it in all his films, ppl love him, he made a place in their heart, this matter, nothing else.

Hey Radhe long time haan....

I have been someone who have been industry kid Varun Dhawan fan for a long time have enjoyed the fan fights, showed off his so called manufactured farzi 100 percent record I would like to share my few cents on this topic


His 2nd movie Main Tera Hero opens at 5.5 Cr in 2300 something screens & he gets declared as the new IT massy star claims are made by Trade ppl that its the highest opening for 2nd outing of any newcomer completely neglecting the FACT that an year a certain Sushant Singh Rajput's Shuddh Desi Romance opened at 6.3 Cr in 1600 screens, no hype nada, the trade takes ages to declare a Dil dhadakne do, Mubarakan or October a Flop and never really does openly but a Kedarnath is termed as SSR's Flop with occupancy reports though when actual opening numbers come out which are actually decent the narrative is again changed quickly and it becomes Sara Ali Khan's super successful debut....

You complaining about SSR's Debut film not getting any HYPE in comparison to VD's with 2nd film getting some star claims? Link kya hai inn dono event ka? Kedarnath was in controversy even before release, woh Release hi nahi karne de rahe the, Remember? Yes it was Sara's Debut, she was gonna be tested coz she was doing her debut in today's time when even before 1st film, she & janhvi were under radar as how good/bad they will be after their Debut Films. SSR knew it when he signed the film as who will get more hype from this film, he wasn't school going kid jisey kuch pata hi nahi tha.


Its not just about the Fact that somebody as below avg as Alia Bhatt signs films specifically curated for her with tailor made roles or are lobbied/arm twisted by Kjo or Reshma it might just be 1 or 2 releases annually out of 250 odd films but its also about the fact that this corrupted a$$holish power structure makes sure ki those are the only 1or 2 releases which will garner all the hype, awards, brands, phoney statements by "veterans".

You are complaining about those 2 films based on your own assumption as they only got hype or spotlight, who decide this, how this is measured. I can tell you 1 thing with which STARDOM is measured, Every FRIDAY, Audience decides, no one can influence them by having awards, brands or phoney statements or by any means, they know well & that should be the final aim for anyone working in films.


Yeah their Films flops Kjo can't buy all tickets for beti, but the glaring difference lies in the FACT that her Shaandaar gets declared a BO & Critical Disaster the next thing Dharma does is arm twist & announces a Heroine Centric Dear Zindagi Starring Alia Bhatt directed by Gauri Shinde with King Khan as her sidekick.

What is this Arm twisting? I don't see how Alia's 12 films in 8-9 years brought any big well to those ppl who were forced to work with her? They were Professionals, ask them these questions, I think they can answer themselves as to why they selected Alia.


While a SSR's highly acclaimed Detective Byomkesh Bakshi Flops, from Paani to Chanda mama, get shelved Dharma's Drive which was promised to be Ryan Gosling's brilliant Drive's remake a Holi release is turned into god knows what, latkaoed for years and dumped on Netflix.

Highly acclaimed, Critically Acclaimed, yes we know, lots of films get that, if it is FLOP it ain't YRF or DHARMA's fault, that's AUDIENCE's Choice. He should have sued Karan for not releasing Drive-in Cinemas, why hasn't He? Where were his Fans/Well Wishers back then when it was released on NETFLIX? Is that film having Blockbuster content for which now so much crying?


His Murlikant pedkar biopic gets shelved coz there are too many army biopics being made esp by Kjo's cronies, while a talentless hack super Flop Sid Malhotra can retain a Vikram Batra biopic but Sushant coming from Kedarnath and a 160 Cr BB Chichore has to let go his films.

Ask those filmmakers these questions & I would like to add NO 1 asked all this when he was ALIVE, this point to point detail is brought into the discussion only after his death.


So yeah ppl should STOP blaming just Nepotism bcoz its a combination of Nepotism, Cronyism, Groupism, Favouritism, Lobbying, Snatching brands projects, Maligning image, Exclusion and worst of all creating hoax projects to chock-block an extremely promising self made young star's dates.

This Controversy is started with KRK's Feb Tweet which when tweeted, no one cared/reacted, in fact we have tons of tweets/insult/derogatory language for SSR from KRK himself, when he was ALIVE, No one cared for that Self Made Young Star, suddenly this anger comes up with no base that few ppl are responsible. Have u seen KRK's tweet for SSR, that is nothing in front of things you guys are complaining from Karan & his launched Starkids, if u haven't, do let me know, will show you.

I don't think it's of any use to give any proofs to the writer as it won't change her lopsided view . Repeatedly blaming the audience , when they themselves have accepted their mistake and just want to open their eyes at last so that justice prevails. Not even one of the star kid has come out with apologies for having unknowingly hurted him and for not have listened to him while he was alive. Closure is what everyone wants right now but when the audience is ready to take the blame , the media , production houses, directors and the stars who unknowingly sidelined him should be willing to share the blame. When a movie like kedarnath and chhicchore became a hit, critics and journalists credited the success to sara and shraddha. I can understand about sara as it was her debut so the spotlight was fixed upon her but chhichore wasn't shraddha's debut and she was given full credit for the success. When Drive failed, the blame was shifted to sushant.

Sonchiriya and byomkesh bakshi were both good films yet they didn't fare well on the box office because the buzz around them was almost negligible. And the production , the media and his PR is to be blamed for that along with the audience. Why were dhoni,kai po che, kedarnath and chhicchore hits? Because of the buzz and because of the longtime fans of sushant.

Why were articles tarnishing his image repeatedly published around the time of his film's release. I was his fan from 'kis desh' and pavitra rishta. Till today, I didn't know what blind articles meant. And there are many like me who are unaware. We believed all those articles thrown at us and that me too allegation was a final blow to his repo. Why were his rivals and the media so hell bent upon putting a negative image of him by manipulating the audience. The blame is to be shared by everyone. Any person spinning the blame entirely on the audience while carefully avoiding any blame on their favourite star kid is fooling himself/herself.
