Minority card for saying 3 Khans are in bad times. The state of their fans. 🤣

That's how careers are, stars have their good and bad phases. I thought Akshay fans would know that considering what a flop actor he was for the majority of his career? It's only when he started to make cheap deshbhakt movies that he actually had continued success. Before that apart from a few hit comedy movies he had nothing. Look up his filmography from the 90s and 2000s

Salman and Aamir dominated the 2010s and had quite a few 300 crore movies, Akshay still hasn't managed even one despite being in the best phase of his career lol.

SRK fans have got their panties in a twist,13 pages.🤣

The only way they seek attention is by dragging SRK fans.

Why don’t you make threads on Akshay if you are such a huge fan. Does it bother you that no one cares much about him to leave a comment?

I was a big SRK fan till JTHJ. That movie was so bad that it instantly turned me off SRK. Still people are not identifying the biggest problems with SRK's movies. I liked what one person said here about SRK's directors that they mould the character around SRK where it should have been the other way round.

Most of his earlier movies worked because of him, he was the ultimate romance hero, but his recent movies makes him feel like older Rajesh Khanna who refuses to accept his age. And people praising him for Raees and Fan should really see these movies without their rose tinted glasses. Raees can easily be compared to Ajay's Once upon a time in Mumbai and that was a big hit and deservingly so. Ajay was cast as Sultan Mirza perfectly where as SRK's Raees Alam was just SRK playing Raees, also it doesn't help when the movies go against their own logic to glorify the lead actor. And Fan was just filled with loopholes turning the whole vibe 180 degrees. A good thriller has usually been successful in BW but Fan just went haywire. Their was no setup to big shocks. And the less said about JHMS and Zero the better.

Even SRK's amazing acting was unable to counterbalance Anushka's annoying performance in JHMS. Again I heard the protagonist was supposed to be a depressed guy but barring few scenes it was hard to connect with Harry's struggles. SRK is a good actor, he has already proven himself in MNIK, Swades and CDI. I think a good urban story would suit him too, he just needs tighter scripts and needs to stop his interference if it's true.

I've truly never understood the fascination fellow SRK fans have with Raees. Me and my family watched it in theatres and none of us liked it. I was bored to tears, and felt that SRK looked and acted old and tired, much like how he was in the awful Dilwale.

Agreed that SRK's acting was amazing in JHMS 👍🏼 I particularly love his acting in the scene where he sees off Anushka at the airport (before the climax)

Same he was quite good in JHMS which is a shame because story was really bad. I really wish it was a mature love story with one of his 90s co star. SRK's look and that music is really wasted on that movie. One of my friends joked that mostly NRIs/foreigners liked JHMS because they couldn't tell how bad Anushka's accent was 😂 😂.

And you are absolutely right. I never understood why is Raees rated so highly among SRK fans.

Raees is one of my all time favs.

Like Asoka, PBHH, Paheli, Swades.

I have watched these flops many times, more than DDLJ 😂

I do agree though about DDLJ, I prefer other SRK films over that. If we are comparing ATBBs, then I find KKHH to be a FAR better film than DDLJ as the film takes me on a roallercoaster of emotions (Karan Johar is so good at that), whereas DDLJ borderline turns into a over-the-top David Dhawan comedy in the second half.

As far as Chopra films go, I find Veer Zaara to be MILES ahead of DDLJ as well. Veer Zaara is an innocent love story and is actually my all-time favorite film!
