theres khans and roshan, Bachchans and then there is kumar and devgn. Both of those actors strived to this status without the backing of godfathers and big name producers. rose above constant negativity and bad publicity but still was able to achieved the success against all those odds and make a name for themselves. Akki had a hgoty pending where he was unlucky many times and finally most likely got his careers first hgoty, in addition to winning best actor national award which is bigger than all his achievements. An actor once described as wooden furniture wins best actor 20 years later. Have to give both of them credit for achieving and surviving in a competitive industry where they had all odds stacked against them with khans and roshan who had big support and still managed the unexpected.

You must be a hater man, instead of giving credit where its due you resorted to being negative. wasn't being negative about other superstars, post was to highlight 2 actors who achieved a lot despite in a competitive industry where there was Khan's, Roshan, Bachchan's and Kapoors which wasn't an easy task, both of them survived and made a brand for themselves without the backing of powerful production camps or surnames to recommend them.

Depends how you perceive an actor as nepokid? was his father a big brand name in his time like BigB or just a small timer who had some small success. His father may helped him to get into big Grade movies but was he big enough to get him to A grade movies, powerful production camp like salman khan, abishek Bachchan, or ranveer singh who is related to the kapoor families.

Please be fair.

Aamir has many more like RDB, DCH, Earth, JJWS, QSQT, TZP, 3I, Dangal, Rangeela,AAA that audience will watch and are acclaimed.9

Salman has MPK, HAHK, Tere Naam, Khamoshi, HDDCS.

SRK has Darr, DDLJ, Swades, CDI, Baazigar, DTPH, K3G, Pardes which people will like later also.


As for Akshay and Ajay they are not useless. Esp Ajay does have good films like Zakhm, Legend of Bhagat Singh, Drishyam, Tanhaji, Omkara that people will watch even decades later.


Akshay also has Hera Pheri, Namaste London, Padman, Mission Mangal which are acclaimed and will remain relevant even after 2 decades.


Ajay and Akshay are not irrelevant actors. Ajay especially has more critically acclaimed and versatile work than Khans.

Ajay along with Amir have got the best filmography, agree it was the most ridiculous claim when the man has iconic movies like Zakhm, LOBS, Company,Gangajal, Aparan type movies.

So what? Ajay is a talented nepokid.

And he was, will always be a better actor than Akshay anyday. Akshay only has better looks and body than Ajay due to which he has better BO record. Otherwise as an actor Ajay is miles ahead.

Ajay has proven his talent as an actor in every genre be it action, drama, thrillers, comedy, romance, political dramas etc.

He never got favours from any big banners or award juries. He used to be denied film awards until he won National award for best actor for Zakhm. He never got favours from media either nor any stage show organisers.

Apart from Aamir he is the only one who had survived without support from media and had guts to criticise award shows and media, refused to do stage shows or attend private functions and parties of rich people for a fee.

Despite his success and talent no big banner ever adopted him nor did magazines give a damn about him.

He never kept getting work or attention the way nepokids like Abhishek Bachchan do. His father was an action director. Not a huge name like Amitabh, Dharam or Yash Chopra to keep pushing his career.
