TBH some of these people lost stardom before that lol. An I came name 1 who never had it
Kangna- YES
Ayushman- was never a huge star
Emran Hashmi- same - was never a huge star
RajKumar- was never a huge star
Akki, Aamir, Ranveer will be just fine as they are now beyond the point where anything will affect them.....
Varun YES
Kangna- YES
Ayushman- was never a huge star
Emran Hashmi- same - was never a huge star
RajKumar- was never a huge star
Akki, Aamir, Ranveer will be just fine as they are now beyond the point where anything will affect them.....
Varun YES
Ranveer doesn’t belong in the same category as Amir and Akshay. His stardom is yet to take off to even be compared to such superstars, let alone be put in their category. It’s not only about the movies not doing well but the vibe also matters and at this point Ranveer has one of the lowest vibes of his entire career so far. And his offscreen persona is not helping either.
In fact I think from the above list the only actor whose stardom got majorly hit during and post pandemic is him. The guy has no new movies going on the floor as it seems the producers are waiting to see the BO fate of his next two movies.

I am not putting Ranveer in the same category as Aamir and Akki...these 2 are superstars ...Ranveer is not....I am just saying that Ranveer has atleast so much goodwill now that a short bad phase in the career won't do much harm to him...I put him above Varun...and that is why I said that Varun's stardom took a beating, Ranveer's didn't just because the time is not that big.
Except SRK or Salman, I don't think anyone is really a true star today. Even if those two came in a small-town social drama, it might take an average/decent opening.
All the films that opened well this year had other contributing factors than the main leads. You need a well packaged film with hit music or inbuilt curiosity due to sequel or spectacle factor to reach even an awareness level amongst the masses today. Many films were also poorly marketed this year due to restricted budgets. Just see the difference in opening between Brahmastra vs Shamshera.
Long story short, everyone's stardom is affected.
