LOL so true

Infact my fav SRK was considered superior to Sallu and Akki here cuz he was more experimental in his approach and never did mindless masala for earning a 100 crore BB..His Swades even JTHJ were considered brave attempts

Now I see tables have turned just cuz actor in the question has also changed😆

Great observation guys. Even I as a fan of Salman, Akshay and Ranveer wouldn't have thought of that.

B/w Rambo has Sonakshi ever made any derogatory comments about SRK in the past? Is that why his fans kinda rally together in all her topics to bash? As much as I dont wanna generalise,see it happening on a daily basis to ignore..I mean me being a die-hard SRK fan isnt aware of the reason for their ardent hate..Or is it just cuz she is Sallu prodigy?

Sonakshi has never made any comments about SRK. Infact said she'd love to work with him.

Was his latest a commerical film? It received mixed response and was lapped up by minority. Tell me honestly, what could he have done to bring in moolah? Sonakshi was commercially successful but is recognized as an ACTOR only though this film which in itself must be a satisfying experience. And BO numbers matters to the production houses and distributors, if he's not worrying, why should we? Isn't it a good thing that he wants his film to be a memorable one? 😆

I believe this is the phase where young actors can and should experiment with genres without having the pressure to reach the 100 cr club like the aging Khans who resort to typical formulaic genre.

Lol do ppl spend 30 40 crores on an art or parallel film. Lootera was obviously a commercial movie. I dont know how his fans will keep ranting abt his so called critical appreciation when he is giving out constant flops.

And Neetu unleashed is right he is no manoj bajpayee or nawazziddin so that he can experiment and get away with it. Do arr films then...why making losses for the producers!

...hmm. I think its okay for this one because while I wish Lootera had worked, I am not too surprised it didn't...though if Ram Leela also bombs...then Ranveer might find it tough.

I think he is a good actor, but I don't think he has a huge fanbase proven by the fact that he doesn't really have endorsements, the industry looks down upon him (all the rumors of being next VO, irritating folks with his over enthusiasm). He's an underdog in many ways. His upcoming films seem decent enough on paper..let's see.

Talk about hypocrisy.

The same people who trash Salman and Akshay left right and centre for doing formula films to rake in the cash, are blaming this guy for not playing to the gallery.

Box office numbers are not the MOST IMPORTANT thing in the world for a lot of actors, directors and production houses. There's something called creative satisfaction and some people crave that more than grossing 100 Cr. Maybe Ranveer is part of that upcoming group which includes Abhay, Dibakar and many young actors and directors. At least I hope so.

Since you are drawing parallels between Ranveer and these actors, Manoj Bajpayee and Nawazuddin or say Irfan Khan are great actors and perform well no matter how much money they are able to pull in. If Ranveer wants the same, is it wrong, just because he's a commercial actor? If raking money only is not his priority?The producers of Lootera threw in a party, its not like they are crying over their lost money. They were proud of their product right from the beginning, but the results didn't turn out the way they had expected it to, and it happens, sometimes you succeed, sometimes you fail. That doesn't mean you let yourself bogged down by the failure. Instead of appreciating this attitude, its sad that people are rejoicing over and wishing for someone's failure. Sometimes the hatred that the world is filled in with, amazes me to no extent.😕

And this is the edge I was talking about. One film can change the fate of these newbies unlike the senior actors. If you are a good actor and make some smart choices, nothing can stop you. Unless you make some stupid mistake like Vivek Oberoi i.e There were so many good looking actors who didn't see success and thats the reason we keep bumping across threads like What happened to this actor, so much potential, so good-looking, this that. Its talent combined with luck that can take them afar. These days, more than the actors, I'd attribute the success of the film to the directors who have the vision to write sensitive moments and draw out performances from the young bunch. From what I see in Ranveer, he is happy working with renowned directors.Somewhere down the line, I am hoping that after his experience with Lootera, he'd strive even harder to deliver his best. 😃

Binge, if you start taking Trolling seriously, then there is no explanation. if wishing for someone's failure could give the same result. people would have left their jobs and had been doing the same. so chillax.

having said this, I still can't agree with your points, mainly the reason is that Ranveer hasn't proved himself yet. if you think BBB proved his skills, so i will not take it because the film opened very badly and it was the magic of the script and Anushka's performance that got the film above average status not Ranveer himself. Since he was a YRF launch, he was given all the male debut awards.

Ranveer's second movie was a flop. the main reason he has been taken by producers is because of his YRF connections and not because of his talent. Lootera might give him a new lease of little appreciation, but he is going to find it tough in the long run. Unless he doesn't give a successful film commercially. and NOTE : Commercially successful films doesn't mean they have to be formula films.

Oh thank god, I took it seriously. 😆


Well, Yrf have been launching new faces and there is a tough competition to survive in that camp too. 😆 I couldn't get myself to watching his 2nd film either so I agree, he needs to choose scripts wisely. His bad luck is that even if Ram Leela opens well, Deepika will be credited for doing commercially well. 😆 Then Priyanka, etc.

I cant change your opinion regarding his acting skills...he kinda still cracks me up whenever I watch BBB😆. For your sake, I hope he proves himself an actor in the long run.
