Even with zero acting skills Katrina gave hit after hit starting from 2005. She even gave hit films with B grade actors like John and Imran. Deepika's hit marathon started from 2012. She not only gained immense popularity but also praises from critics. It is very rare for an actress to receive commercial success and critical acclaim at the same time.
But Kareena and Priyanka who are known as much better actors than Katrina and Deepika never received such phenomenal commercial success. They even failed to deliver hits with big stars.
People say that Katrina owes her success to Akshay and Salman. But then what about Kambakht Ishq and MAMK? The superstars could not make those films hit. So Katrina was equally responsible for the massive success of her films with Akshay and Salman.
People say that YJHD become super hit as it has superstar Ranbir. Then why did Anjana Anjani flop? Deepika's star power was equallyresponsible for the film's phenomenal success.
Kareena could not make GTPM collect even 10 crores whereas Ram Leela collected 16 crores in it's first day.

Not more star power than Salman and Ranbir. But obviously much more star power than Kareena+Priyanka combined.

True but is star power everything?
Maybe it does to matter to the ones whose money is at stake
But as a viewer, I prefer PC and KKK over Katrina.
The only movie of Katrina's where I actually did like her for something other than her dance was Namastey London where she played herself

I feel star power is overrted
atleast in the forum it is

I agree! I also would want to know how PC and Kareena chose films. PC I think just goes with her instincts and some turn out well and others turn out disasters. Kareena I think just sees Kjo production or a Khan movie and signs it without reading the script. Katrina has always been smarter she knows her limitations as an actor, the only time she got it wrong was JTHJ. Deepika started with a bang but fizzled and then started signing every movie which eventually paid off. It not only made her a better actor but she came in as a fresh breath. Now Deepika has learnt too, for a Fanny Fernandez --(might get her critical acclaim). She has a Happy New Year--a sure shot commerical success.

@tm no doubt abt it. Kat gave hit with rk when he have got no hit at that ty . Apkgk was 4th highest weekend of all tym during its release. Then she gave hits on newyork n mbkd. Even shiela gave tmk huge opening and karan johar gave agneepath opening success to chikni chameli besides hrithik star power. N i dislike deepka but she got star power, these 2 ladies r superstars n going neck to neck. actually public are always eager to watch these two which kareena n pc lacks. i like them both but it is true

At the end of the day films are made for audience and not critics. So star power does matter.

and audiences do care about scripts. they dont just lap up every peice of sh.it thrown their way (unless its from salman or srk). star power does matter but so does the content. it all comes down to how well they chose scripts. Kareenas notoriously dumb in that department and katrina knows her limitations. You wont see her attempting a Dev or a Chameli. she knows she cant deliver.
