Hey guys, Just a random thought....whenever we think of bollywood's romantic hero, we think of SRK and his Raj and Rahul characters. Why not Salman since he has been loverboy Prem in so many films? Why is Salman not seen as a romantic hero as much as SRK is even when he has done so many rom-coms as Prem?

I guess SRK danced on the Swiss Alps and Salman danced on the streets of Mumbai and Ooty....That made the difference....😆

Lol Maddy 😆 I was thinking maybe it had something to do with Salman's bad boy image? That's why the audience accepted SRK as the loveable romantic hero instead? IDK...

Yeah... The bad boy image was one of the reasons.... The abuse cases...the black buck incident...the drunk driving one all added up....
and other than that i think SRK has done more romantic movies...romancing the chiffon clad heroines on the swiss alps kinds....
and like qwww said his NRI lover boy image just added it all up...😆

SRK's romantic roles were trend setters and more appealing even when he does a negative character!!!

Bcz he did more comedies which outshined his romantic roles which he did much less. My take on it.
