Whose success is just luck? - Page 3

There is no doubt luck plays a BIG part in our lives. But discrediting one's years long hard work, skills, passion, love for their craft just like that?

You can't make a good dish with just one ingredients. Life is like that. Full of spices. You can't go on forever depending on one thing. People discrediting one's hard work, may not have seen people who are damn passionate about their growth as an artist, works hard, at the same time very popular.

Anyway, they say, "luck favours the brave".

Yes then every successful person is lucky.....why pick and choose the ones that you hate......

SRK is the biggest example and most deserving one to be quoted because all of the major career turning biggest hits he has right from his dubut that actually shaped and made his career were all rejected by others first for various reaons, and he has just been the replacement of the original choices, so you cannot deny these facts associated with him been the most lucky one among all.

More than rejected films, it is patronizing by YRF, Dharma that made his life and Filmfare also hyping him and giving him undeserved awards for even crap films.

His rivals being mentally unstable and ruining career due to personal life issues and taking breaks also served his cause.

Otherwise quite overrated and kept doing same types of films for 3 decades. Fairly one trick pony.

I feel same for Govinda and David Dhawan who would make same type of crap and still gave hits. Now when you revisit those films you realise how they repackaged same shit again and again, with even similar star cast of same old Kader Khan, Satish Kaushik, Anupam Kher, Raveena, Karishma etc.

He played a big role in making those films huge hits even if he wasn’t the first choice. You act like anyone in his place would make those movies huge hits.
Also, what about the huge hits like Munnabhai mbbs and 3 idiots that he rejected?

Plenty of films are crap but succeeded due to fluke or timing.

Plenty of actors or writers and singers etc are crap but succeeded due to luck or timing and are irrelevant now or will be so later.

Plenty are those whose even fans later wonder why they liked them or their work and feel ashamed and foolish to admit they liked it.

You are talking like your opinion on a movie is the universal truth. It s all subjective. You may find a movie crap but many others may love it. Let s take Lootera for example. It s considered a masterpiece in here but outside of here, it s considered crap by the majority.
If movie becomes a huge hit, the team did something right.

Kitty Kat

Not now but back in the late 2000s and early 2015, I always felt that how come KAT with that horse face and 0 talent become such a top actress when the precedents were Rani and ASH. She had nothing to offer IMO.

Akshay Kumar

Again his films in the late 2000’s were massive hits and they had no quality.

I never named a film at all.

You could find a film great today and dislike it later or realise it was not that good at all.

I never said it applied only to me. It can apply to anyone.

I did not name anyone or any film in post you quoted but explained a phenomenon

So we can say second innings of Amir or Sanjay are luck that SRK rejected Munnabhai, RDB, 3I, Lagaan.

Waise Akshay rejected CDI. So we can say one of few quality and different stories SRK did, is also luck that someone else rejected them. Just as Aamir rejected Swades.

Ajay Devgan
Saif Ali Khan

These guys both were mediocre and worse when they hit the screen. Still they had decent careers. Luck it is
