Losers in Bollywood

You look at these guys and they have neither the talent nor the looks or success but are still lucky enough (how?!) to find work in Bollywood. Here's laughing at them.

Uday Chopra: Whatever attention (and films) he gets, is because of his surname. He has an iota of talent that was seen in supporting roles in Dhoom. He is not hero material and neither can he write a decent script (Pyaar Impossible). We hope his relationship with Tanisha works out or he will go into depression again!

Tusshar Kapoor: He is here only because of his sister and father. Anybody can do his brand of comedy. He cannot support a film on his own and is not even attractive but has projects like Golmaal 3 lined up along with Shor, an independent film. See what contacts can do!

Nikhil Dwivedi: He has the audacity to call Shah Rukh Khan 'family' and he even had a fall-out with him! Honestly, he looks like the guys who come by the droves from various parts of India to work in restaurants or as domestic help in the city! Seen in flops like My Name is Anthony Gonsalves and Raavan, he has attitude! Would you believe that?!

Vivek Oberoi: Once upon a time, he was a rising and promising star. Then he screwed it up by talking about his love life (with Ash) and rubbing Salman Khan the right way. Shootout at Lokhandwala and Kurbaan helped him regain his izzat which went down again with the laughable Prince! What is most annoying about him is that he tries very hard to please people and mend his image. Nobody in Bollywood wants to associate themselves with him.

Abhishek Bachchan: 'Among blind men, the one-eyed man is king' holds true for Abhishek Bachchan. Barring Guru, he has not had any solo-hit in his career. He can act but being Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan's son, he should be able to do at least that! He thinks he is very cool and happening and that attitude gyrates on your nerves! What's with the fake accent? As many Big B fans says, he is a dhabba (stain) on his father. He does not have his voice and personality.

Sikander Kher: Sanjay Gupta is to blame for letting him believe that he could make it in Bollywood as he gave him a break with Woodstock Villa. First of all, Kher needs to get over the misconception that he is good-looking because he seems stuck in evolution! And besides staring with pursed lips, he cannot act. His friendship with Junior Bachchan has got him a role in Khelenge Hum Jee Jaan Se.

Dino Morea: He should have stuck to modelling as acting is not his cup-of-tea and he is making a fool of himself here! But starting Crepe Station was a very wise decision. With Raaz (2002) being the sole hit of his career, he should consider quitting and settling down with Nandita Mahtani, a prized catch.

That's a bit harsh.. LOL
I think Nikhil did an amazing job in My Name is Anthony Gonsalves or however you spell it!
& Uday's cute. Pyaar Impossible was a decent movie, I didn't hate it.

Haven't seen Nikhil and so won't comment. One person I don't agree wtih in the list is Vivek Oberoi.
True Prince was not anything great but he has done good work in movies you mentioned as well as films like Saathiya. He went down mainly as he did not follow the rules of the industry and got into trouble with powerful people. That has led him to be a 'loser' in his work but it does not reflect on his capabilities. If he had backing like Abhishek, he might have done better.
For playing devil's advocate, in that case why has Sunny Deol (or even more so Bobby Deol) not been mentioned? He has a couple of great hits (like once in 10 years) like Gaddar but most of his other films are not worth watching (anyone see Jo Bole So Nihaal?). I am not putting down Sunny but want to say that he is another example of someone who did not play the industry rules and politics well (like his father as well as Vivek's father) and so is not even remembered when people think of 'good actors' or 'bad actors'.
I am sure there might be better examples for actual losers but my mind is blank now. I do agree whole-heartedly with Uday Chopra as a choice.

a seriously hit movie and the same list will be called Winners. Such is the fickle nature of Bollywood.

In Hollywood I have never come across shallow articles like these.
