For the first time I saw Madhuri visibly irritated in interviews. Alia literally forced Madhuri to say it was hard for both to do Ghar More. She was pestering Madhuri and Madhuri just relented. Alia is that annoying 😂


As for her dance, Madhuri wasn’t gonna say “You suck . Go Home and stop disrespecting Kathak”.


Alia jumping everywhere during promotions was so funny. She was taught by KJo coz same vibe. During interviews or dance or movies.

lmao exactly. Madhuri wasn’t gonna say, hey Alia, your kathak reminds me of my son doing jumping jacks. 😂😂

Why should we find for you? Do your own job with taking auditions. Or just keep watching soty 2 for the remarkable acting.

Gosh, that is such a narrow-minded view, find me a better actor, that's your job to scout for talent to cast them in your movies.


It's like watching through a narrow glass and only seeing a couple of scenes and thinking that is the whole world.


It's like the cat closing its eyes and thinks the whole world is black.


This is exactly why outsiders struggle with viewpoints like this.

I doubt if Ranbir can pull off Gully boy. He's too fair and too good looking to play the part of muraad. Only RS could have

What nonsense. Alia and Ranbir are definitely good actors. But aisa bhi nahin hain that no one is better than them. Ranbir is definitely one of the best actors but he can’t do well in complete masala movies. Ranveer, Rajkumar Rao, Vicky Kaushal , Ayushmann Khurana are definitely good as well. Kalank proved Alia has limitation but she is good in certain roles. Deepika and Tapsee are also good in their own kind of roles. Such generic statements are not required to defend Ranbir and Alia. They have definitely had privileges no point ignoring it. But yes saying all their success is due to the privileges is wrong as well.

There are many, many many, actors who are miles better than Ranbir and/or Alia outside Bollywood.


Within Bollywood: Ranveer, Ayushman, Karthik, and Vicky Kaushal are at the same talent level as Ranbir. Parineeti, Kriti, Kiara at the same level as Alia among her contemporaries.


Shahid Kapoor, Rajkumar Rao, the late Sushant are way ahead of Ranbir.


Tapsee, Kangana, Tripti, Bhumi are all a lot better than Alia.


Ranbir and Alia are mediocre actors who're touted as outstanding by the nepo gang and a compliant press. They're average. Nothing more. What remains is star power. Ranbir's is undeniable, but I don't know that he'd have gotten as far without his famous last name. Alia's is not organic, last name or not.

Bold- His job is not to scout for talent😆. He is not a talent scout. He is a director. His job is only to make good films

See i don't agree with what he said at all. Ranbir is definitely is one of best actors we have today. As good as any one can get. But there are others who are as good if not better. Ranveer being one of them.

But acting is very subjective. There is no right or wrong answer here. See some people here have said even Shahid is better than Ranbir. I 100% don't agree with that but its their opinion and acting is so subjective i cant even say that is wrong.

R Balki thinks they are the best actors. He is completely entitled to his opinion. His job is to make good films hence if thinks he already has great actors in Alia and Ranbir he can absolutely make movies with them without scouting for any talent. No one can force him to change his like's just like no one can force us to believe Alia and Ranbir are the best.

I keep thinking of this article I read some years ago

In Rajkumar Santoshi's Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, there is little the script has but whimsy. What the film has, however, is a full-blown superstar crackling in top form, working everything from slapstick to nuanced gags with consummate ease.

It's spontaneity of a kind very rarely seen in our leading men, and Kapoor, frequently referencing his granddad Raj, ends up showing a spark reminiscent of the great Kishore Kumar himself. Stunning.


^^ He can’t do Singham or Dabangg but if action is kept at a minimum and the masala elements are more comedy/romance he can do very well. An I don’t even like him 😳

Ranveer can replace Ranbir and the movie will be still watchable( Dil dhadakne do) but not vice-versa
