Everyone is using this controversy for their own selfish ends.
Irrfan was hugely appreciated for the types of films he did but you can't force the audience to watch movies that they don't want to. What does it even mean that his father was defeated at the box office by hunks? People watched what they felt like!
exactly, it is not stars like salman khans fault that a larger percentage of the audince enjoys watching his movies, irfan was a celebrated actor throughout his career, he didn't lose out on anything. The kind of films he did were more serious and small budget and they worked, we can't expect him to be like a salman or srk, they have thier own qualities and irfan had his own strentghs
and why blame the audince? the audince is going to watch what they enjoy, why make them feel bad about spending thier hard earned money in the way that they want? If they want to watch a mindles masala movie then they have every right to do that with thier own money
I can't remember which college course it was that taught me masses will always pick trash over quality. So this is nothing new. And it will continue to happen. The best you can hope for is recognizing what is mindless entertainment and what is thoughtful films. And letting both of them exist in their own spaces.
BO success doesn’t matter in the long run . Irfan will always be appreciated and respected, Salman won’t be
I'd never heard of this guy before ever in my life and now he keeps jumping into controversies every few days. Why should anyone even care what an actor's son thinks? Aren't people supposedly against nepotism?
I personally prefer the kind of movies Irfan did over the mainstream masala but I can't make that decision for others. The majority of the theater audience is working class people. They spend their hard earned money and they want to have some fun and forget their worries. Many of them don't have the patience or capacity to watch art films when the rest of their day is filled with work and worries.
I agree that those films are not really respected on a world scale but who cares honestly. It's not like anyone respects Adam Sandler or Noah Centineo movies in HW either. Superhero movies are also trashy. There is room for everything.
When u fail to adapt to market demands you start blaming the audience for having bad taste and not evolved enough to cater to the kind of movies that you want to do. Isn't it the actors duty to experiment with all genres and cater to all kind of audiences? Now if u want to stick to the kind of cinema u believe in thats all good and fair. But don't blame the audience for not going with your choices. If u need a bigger fan base, learn to adapt rather than continuously complaining about people not choosing your movies. You can't always expect others to change as per your wishes while u stay rigid as a rock with your preferences.

Rajinder Kumar of new stars 🤔
Hard to see how he survive, can't give a single expression.
His films are already forgotten in a week after release.
I guess action could be last stand but it's not like he is doing Donnie yen, Jackie chan or making John wick, he is doing same action of bollywood mixed with few same gymnastics, too boring.

nah Salmon Bhoi is like John Wayne. He will be remember for long.
