I don't know, but a couple of threads triggered me to make this poll.

We all know that all three mentioned in the poll are great legends in their respected era. They have made significant contributions to the film industry. All 3 of the actors have had their share of ups and downs. None have been perfect, none will ever be perfect. We all have our favorites too depending on the generation we have grown up in and based on our likes and dislikes of acting abilities, movie genres, and etc. I'm not trying to discredit any of the three actors as I am personally a fan of all 3 of them (more particularly my jaanu aka Shahrukh Khan). But I am curious to know what this forum thinks on who the most overrated legend is?

Dilip Kumar ji? - He's the one I'm least familiar with, so I can't really say honestly.

Amitabh Bachchan ji? - I've seen a lot of his films. He's acted exceptionally well is some, while in others he has been a bit over the top.

Shahrukh Khan? - Kind of the same as above.

As far as narrowing it down to one, it is kind of difficult for me to chose.

But what do you all think? Is anyone more overrated than the other? Or are all 3 equal?

Shahrukh is no legend, and placing his name next to Dilip Ji and BIg B is kinda insult of these two.

The 2 REAL khans of bollywood are still Salman & Aamir who gave MAXIMUM revenue to hindi cinema till date.

The third name should have been RAJESH KHANAA with dilip ji and big b.
srk can be placed with salman, aamir and hrithik.

I cannot stand Amitabh Bachan, there has always been something about that man that puts me off. Why do people like him again?

Amitabh Bacchan cannot be overrated as a legend. The kind of hysteria that has followed ever since he started acting until now is unparalleled. Yes, there were years when he was pretty much a non-entity( mid-90s) but he has always bounced back. Dilip Kumar and SRK cannot measure up to that. The man is 70 and is very much active and in the news, he is still loved and revered by all generations.

So I would have to go with SRK or Dilip Kumar.

P:S: I read this topic wrong initially. It sounds like you're asking which legend is the better out of the three at first.😆

the reasons why i feel SRK is overrated
1.He cant do comedy
2.Won best actor awards for some shitty performances
3.Never has been a 1-5/1-10 like salman is today or Big B,rajesh khanna was once and its a fact BO wise ! In the 90s aamir,salman,sunny deol beat him and in the 2000s hrithik,aamir beat him ! He has never given top grossers of the yr for consecutive yrs !
