Bhumi how? Except Sonchiriya and SKA she has a full hit track record right from her debut film.

Dum Lagake- Hit

Toilet- Hit

Shubh Mangal- Hit

Bala- Hit

Pati patni aur woh- Hit

And she hasn't repeated a single production house. All the films are with different producers. She may be a politician's daughter but BO track record wise she has enough reasons to be cast in film after film.

Her Bhoot film with Vicky failed

I’m not her fan. She’s neither here or there for me

She said she would love to do more metro films as oppose to small town

Shahrukh hands down. copying my post from another thread, below.

"Yes there are few socalled OUTsiders who are extremely cunning enough to keep big banners at their side, not letting any insider or outsider to be cast most of the time other than themselves and made their whole careers based on their extreme PR with certain people, shining example is shahrukh who used yashraj & dharma for his entire career and never let them cast anyone other than himself, that much sharp some outsiders' PR and personal equation is".

I think Kjo and adi chopra and yash raj benefitted most from SRK than other way round

yash raj was a small banner SRK helped make it global

Kjo was a flop directors son with closed banner SRK helped make it this big

I think yash raj and kjo used SRK than SRK used them to make their banners so big

Of course SRK was PR king of 90s and early 2000s

But he mostly got roles that other rejected be it deewana, bazigaar, daar etc all he was not first choice for any of this he was 3rd or 4th choice always

Even DDLJ he was 4th choice the movie that made him super star no 1 of 90s

Karan Arjun he was 3rd choice sunny deol and ajay devgan the first two choices

If others did not want to take risk and hence were left out or left behind you cannot say SRK did not allow them to enter yash raj and dharma prodns

When saif ali khan rejected DDLJ he would not know it will become cult movie, he thought its just another love story will do avg business thats his fault may be Or who knows Saif would have been no.1 than of 90s

Fortune favours the brave SRK grabbed movies that all others rejected to reach no.1

If the others had done it they would be no1

You tell me who would have thought an DDLJ would become cut movie, if it was released after 2000s it would have flopped 90% of time

Same goes to KKHH who thought it will be a massive hit, if released now it would have flopped big time

Same for Kabhi kushi kabhi gham would be flop in recent times or a mohobatein

Katrina Kaif . Now she is a huge star and surviving on her own but early in her career

- Couldn’t speak Hindi

- debuted in a b grade film

No way she would have got a second chance without Salman

There is a difference having connection friends and family before coming into movies, and making connection after coming into movies. Katrina got movie due her successful modelling career she did not know who salman or akshay were before coming into movie then made connection after joining movies. she's selfmade star and salman or akshay don't have anything to do with her success she was like by male audiences due to her looks alone and dancing ability. salman was a flop actor in the 2000 era.

Namastey London put her in limelight which has nothing to do with salman who did not make movies with vipul shah before London dreams
