Average looking guys can not become hero in this era of film industry?

Of course they can regardless of if they have the charm or not. Ajay Devgan is a perfect example but it took years of hard work to get to where he is. It started with Phool Aur Kaante followed by other Action movies. Then he went on to do other genres like Zakhm & The Legend of Bhagat Singh were his performances was appreciated as well as Company & Deewangee.

It's all about talent and audience accepting the person. Ajay & SRK fit into that category. Sunil made through because he was doing macho type characters which were very common during those times.

Manoj Bajpai is another person as well although he started off in small roles in the 90s but audience took notice of him when Satya came out. His performance in Shool was very much appreicated. Ghaath as well is another good film of his although it did Average at the BO.

I'm not fan of new genreation maybe I have more a soft corner for 90s actors. Most of my favourites e.g. Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Sunil Shetty & Govinda don't appear often. So I only have Ajay Devgan & Akki now to support and Salman & Aamir, I guess.
