Imran & genelia (in BW)...a series of flop movies after a huge blockbuster.
It's too soon to add sonakshi but i still feel like mentioning her.

IMO...Two of them come to mind who showed a lot of potential intially...

Hrithik... Started out well... Very impressive debut... He was touted as the next big thing...The one to topple the Khans... Then after a brief high, things went downhill and he never reached the pinnacle he was projected to reach... Aamir type of approach to his movies back fired... Aamir has a strong script sense which HR lacks... Right now he is struck in the naa idhar ka naa udhar kaa phase... I did think he will go a long way but i dont see it happening... The oldy Khans are still ruling the BO... The youngistan crowd is catching up... HR and couple others are somewhere in the middle...

Vivek Oberoi... Was a natural in some of his intial movies... He had the intensity, the spark to make it big...He could handle intense, broody roles very well... I thought he will be the next Ajay Devgun... But again he lost track... Instead of focuussing on his career he went around his lady love like a love struck puppy... Messed up with the big sharks... I guess he lacked the shrewdness and the chalooness that is needed in Bollywood...

Deepika is the first one that comes to mind. After OSO, it just went downhill. I think she went uphill. Are you kidding me... did you see her acting in Lafangey Parinde? Totally fooled me for a blind person to be honest.

Vivek Oberoi too...he had a promising debut with Company and I thought he'd make it pretty big but nothing really happened. Today, he is neither idhar ka nor udhar ka. Lol, you need to watch Prince and Kurbaan. If you have, how could you forget those mesmerizing facial expressions and the hurt in his voice when he lost his lover? (In Kurbaan)

Sonam...I had a feeling that she's be really good in Saawariya but I was disappointed. I didn't think much of her Delhi-6 performance either but maybe I should watch it again. Hopefully, she'll live up to the expectations in Mausam. Sonam may not have chosen good roles, but my GOD was she a perfect Aisha. Her attitude and line delivery were flawless.

Ranveer Singh totally surprised me in BBB. Looking forward to his future line-ups. Lol, jokes.

I thought Anuskha would disappear after RNBDJ but she's still around and is getting pretty good offers. I wasn't impressed with her in RNBDJ, but really liked her performance in BBB. I think her face is pretty but she needs to work on her lines and getting her expressions right.

Katrina...never had I imagined that she'd be the most sought after female celebrity in Bollywood. 😆 Same with Kareena...I never expected her to get this far in Bollywood, but surprise surprise! Surprises, indeed.

Ranbir has definitely lived upto his promise. Uhm, no.

For some reason, I thought that Mimoh (Mithun's son) would really make it big.

Definitely Vivek Oberoi, like others have said. He started off with a bang and has ended up nowhere. Vivek must blame himself, but Aishwarya and Salman have had a large part to play in his professional demise and neither of them appear to give a damn. If ever you wonder about the heartlessness of Bollywood, look no further than Vivek's story. Too bad.

Amrita Rao. She's got the beauty and the talent, what happened? I have to believe she's either very unpleasant behind the scenes (but really is she?) or she refused to be part of a casting couch conspiracy because I just don't understand how she never really amounted to much. She's so much better than some of the other starlets we are forced to endure.

Fardeen Khan - in hindsight maybe I was being naive but I really thought that with his sauve looks and sophistication, he could become a really big star. Questionable talent but not everyone who is a star is supremely talented. Take Katrina for example. But I suppose Fardeen didn't care enough to give it a proper go.

Antara Mali - she could have been the next Tabu or Shabana Azmi. She's a very fine actress. But getting entangled with RGV and then not playing the media game has backfired on her spectacularly. Thing is, don't think she really cares either.

Shabnam you have your very own stalker indeed. 😆 That too word for word, no pun intended.

OT: I think Vivek oberoi and Hrithik Roshan. Both debuted like the best thing since sliced bread but fizzled out soon after...

Deepika - she did quite a few movies now but still hasn't improved a bit, IMO.

Sonam too is pretty bad as well. :\ I found her okay is aisha but thank you was horrible. Hopefully, mausam will be better. :)

Imran - even though I really like him, mainly cause he's cute, he can't really act. Delhi belly was much better than his other fail movies but still not there. And I am not really expecting much from MBKD either. -_-

And for who I didn't think would make it big - sonakshi. I thought she would be another lost starkid but she's pretty famous so far. And maybe not exactly "big" yet, but she sure acts like it. lol
