😊 There is a attached interview from Ajay Devgan in the link up above. Ajay brings up an interesting point. He explains that men in their 40's (Saif, Aamir, SRK, Salman, Akshay) are ruling the industry. However, "boys" are not ruling the industry. I guess he is referring to the Imran's, Shahid's, Ranbir's, Abhishek's, Hritik's, etc.

The thing is, the Khans were always on the top. They do very good films which make it hard for the audience to resist. Is it just plain luck that men in their 40's are ruling? I think it is a combination of hard work and appeal. Are the young ones just not having the luck and hard work that older men are having?

Older men are definitely still ruling but look at Ranbir and Hrithik! Ranbir is catching up really fast!

Ranbir is doing really well but I still think that the Khans are still at the top because they always come with a fantastic performance, Hrithik for me is doing average because I still think he should do more films then I can see whether he is a good actor I don't find him amazingly good. Abhishek is doing really bad and he really needs to up his game otherwise he's going to end up doing the "Paa" Dance 🤣

It's because of the fans. SRK, Salman, and Amir have more fans than the likes of Ranbir and Imran or the so called young new comers ect

There is another thing which is called "ACTING" and you know Ranbir can act, all of the Khans can but Imran for me still hasn't improved.

it's not about 40+.

when they were 30+ too, they ruled the industry.

Because the younger actors just don't have the same star power that a SRK, Aamir, Amitabh ha. It's all about star power...

Ranbeer is rocking, but wonder he can go ther because he lacks that charisma..But still he is new. I hope he will.
