That’s not true. I never heard this prior to 2010.

difference is the older gen used to make it, hamare zamane mein types

the younger were always gaga over the actresses whether aish, priyanka or madhuri, sridevi, craze was unmatched

now even the current gen is not really crazy about anybody, heard anybody worshipping a ananya, jhanvi, max is you may like an alia thats all

Till a couple of years back..our heroes had plenty of heroines.The industry was buzzing.

It is hard today,to put together an A list film.I am sure there are great masala scripts, with songs and dances..the usual BW tropes.But where are the heroines? Look at Pooja Hegde from south signing so many films..and that Rashmika Mandana.I just watched Billi Billi.How hot Aish made grandpa Rajnikant look in Robot! He had so many flops after that.Big opening and thud.

The young heroes dream today to get a 10+ crore opening.Izzat bach jayegi!

I was looking at the attendees of Zee Awards..and thought the same..Bar is so low..10 crs opening -15 toh Lottery!

there are talents even now, they are not cast, same faces and some of them are so bland and pairings are boring

like mrunal looked so old world and beautiful in sita ramam, she can be cast in baiju bawra but the same pair again

deepika got a fab debut opposite srk and a great role, vidya was picked for a movie like parineeta, aish had a great debut and was working with slb and mani

cant see that happening now

dude, she was stunning before the alcoholism. She had a unique beauty. People in the media called her the natural beauty that didn't need much makeup with an enchanting smile. Her features were unique. Not the conventionally beautiful types but attractive.

I don’t even like most of the pairings these days. Most of them don’t have any chemistry. The casting director needs to have a re-look.

they are stale, wohi do chaar, ranbir, ranveer, deepika, alia, like musical chairs

or go a bit lower then jhanvi, ananya, bhumi types

no variety or unexpected pairings at all

That's because chemistry is equated to skin show. nowadays That old-world charm has gone, when there were lingering looks and smoldering passion. Now even the smooches look rehearsed or like they are biting each other's faces off.

Can't believe someone said Manisha is not a beauty!

I always found her prettiest after Sonali and Ash among the 90's beauties!

Even Kajol is prettier than Janhvi/Sara/Ananya, in retrospect!

Madhuri is a timeless beauty -- her grace is unmatched!

I agree.

Anu got Adi as director and SRK as hero.Sonakshi made her debut with Dabangg.Asin with Ghajini.Sonam In SLB's most expensive film till then.

Why is no one taking chances with debutantes for event films?

Today heroes don't want work with Mrunal,Tripti because they didn't get big debuts.

Or maybe they are afraid of being overshadowed by their talent lol

On another note, Mrunal and Tripti are like a breath of fresh air. They deserve to be up there, with Alia. They are in the same age group as Alia na?

Well…when you hail Deepika’s flat, monotonous dialogue delivery for the last 15 years as the pinnacle of good acting, what else do you expect?
