- Is it really the last generation of true stars in #bollywood . Is the success of #pathaan and #shahrukhkhan pretty clear indicator that the likes of #salmankhan #akshaykumar #ajaydevgan and #aamirkhan are here to stay and failure is only monetary. Are #tamil and #telugu film fans just incomparable? Is bollywood truly back? I hope you like the video on Bollywood & Its Return

I honestly believe current gen actors are more western in their personality, the 90s stars feel like someone our own, because they remain rooted in their personalities. Don't think any actor can have a strong connect with the masses if their accent, behavior is more inspired form the west. We need someone like our own at that level to love and support. SRK, Salman, Ajay devgan are exactly that
that's an interesting take. i wonder whether that's the reason why people love Karthik so much. He is really so chill and easy with his interactions, does seem like just one of us
Nice point
@@TriedRefusedProductions . bollywood will never see a star after Khan because people don't identify or own Ranbir or ranveer.there are just celebrity
@@TriedRefusedProductions People are supporting kartik because he is an outsider and because of some panga happened between him and karan johar. At the time of SSR news, karan johar was hated very much by people.
What about yash
being a teen, i feel like our generation has gotten so very critical of all actions and statements made by celebrities, it's like we're judging them each and every step of the way and the tiniest of stuff they say gets so controversial and out of hand. the current generation of actors are put under way more scrupulous scrutiny than the 80s and 90s stars. which is why i feel like it's gotten really hard for them to gather a fanbase as huge as someone like shah rukh khan
fact
Well today they are more exposed than they were before. Social media, free gossip channels and cultural disconnect between celebrities and masses are the cause of it. People today can see these celebrities more clearly for what they are. That takes away that God like persona they used to carry everywhere before.
Ishana, I could not agree more! The current lot of celebrities get accused of being 'boring' or 'PR trained' in interviews but its all a result of a culture that is hyper critical, immediately ready to go on hate campaigns and trending hashtags to malign the individuals. Looking back at the free nature and candid way that people spoke back in the day, its more telling of the people watching than the actors.
I also have to say that there are less distinct personalities for sure in the current lot vs the previous one but the point still stands
@Tried&Refused Productions. I agree. It doesn't help that the new generation is being branded and packaged the same way. You can barely tell them apart from each and the public scrutiny is overwhelming and distracting
Naah. the main reason is people just don't like typical bollywood crap any more. They have better options now.
In Hollywood I will say the superstar status is purely reserved for tom cruise. Truly the biggest moviestar of all time since 1980s. Didn't even have to join a superhero movie 😍
Leonardo is also there
You forgot about Brad Pitt
Bro jhonny depp🥺
Not true. There's so many. There's Stallone, there's Arnold, there's Bruce Willis.
The names mentioned above are big but even these actors are in awe of Tom Cruise.... I don't know why... But it's the truth..
The three khans, Ajay, Akshay and Hrithik Roshan were the last superstars. After them many actors came but no one achieved that level of stardom like those 90's actors .
Here for 🦁👑Hrithik𓃵 was a brief when he debuted in the year 2000 he came and changed everything in the industry and then became an inspiration to all even senier actar 🙌🙌🙌most complete and versatile actor, the millenniumStar⭐⭐ for reasons.💯❤👊
I have to agree with what Shahid Kapoor said in an interview "No fans should ever be obsessive. Being a fan doesn't mean that one has to like everything an actor does. You've to focus on your own life, your family."
That's pragmatic but not reality for a lot of actors tho
If people were standing outside of Shahid's house, he wouldn't say that, he would love them being fanatic
@@ralelunar can't say that. Not everybody is the same. There are introverts as well in every profession and actors are no exception. Keanu Reeves is an example who have found a way to normalise
I don’t think people in general are obsessive. Very few are. But these few faces are constantly hammered on minds of people, not through their movies, but advertisements. So… people feel relatable, but when they see their B TOWN ka na khara, they feel dejected too.
@@ralelunar exactly, like I won’t stand in front of house of celeb, but these people do crave for attention, may be shahid doesn’t. But khans do
Last Superstars of Bollywood : Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Shahrukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Ajay Devgn & Aamir Khan
@Rajat Tyagi why ?
@Rajat Tyagi cry more hrx is better then all mentioned oldies
@Rajat Tyagi yeah you are
@Rajat Tyagi Kabhi kushi kabhi gum, Kaho na pyaar hai , Koi mil gya and Agneepath are Iconic movies by Hrithik roshan.. and is a Superstar in all ways handsome, dance, body.. he inspires lots of actors of current generation..
@Rajat Tyagi bhai agar krishh 4 aagayi na ye comment karne ki himmat nahi hogi... Krish 4 to dur ki baat hai sirf fighter aur war 2 hee kaafi hai
Like John Abraham rightly said, SRk is no longer an actor but an emotion. He resonates with everyone at their core. He represents love, inclusion and diversity right down his very being. I'm Nigerian and I can tell you, my people love him. Even those that don't watch bollywood films watch SRK. He is King and my hero
The stardom of the actors you mentioned is unmatched with new generation of stars. I remember when KHPH released , the hype of Hrithik was unimaginable. I wrote him a fanmail , for which I got a signed picture and thank you letter which are my
one of my most prized possession. He is my favourite actor and always will be.
Amazing
bit weird
It’s mostly due to the change in media and the emergence of social media. The 90s actors were unreachable for us. We knew very little about them. This created an aura around them, which made them stars. Presently, we come to know everything about an actor even before his/her first movie has released. Thus, the aura of stardom is not developed.
I 100% agree with what you said. In the 90s interviews with actors was unscripted and authentic. We now see actors on everything and they have to watch what they say as every little thing gets scrutinised.
To be fair srk is a brand globally. Even jab harry met sejal broke opening day records in overseas. No one can touch srk overseas since 90s and that really tells me why he is the 🐐
The overseas mania is insane for SRK. The Pathaan numbers are crazy
@@TriedRefusedProductions still the movie is nothing special
@@TriedRefusedProductions only overhype movie and I thought john abraham s was the main hero
@@subhamdhoni999 stop being pressed 💀🤡
@@vsadha5241 why are you comparing him to srk😂🖕
The current generation stars like Ranbir, Ranveer, Rajkummar, Varun are good. They pull off the characters perfectly on celluloid but somehow, they lack the charm that the previous generation stars like SRK, Salman, Ajay, Aamir, and Akshay have. Lastly, the shift in content and media has played a huge role and that has changed the meaning of stardom.
rajkumar and varun shouldnt be considered stars. its okay till you mentioned ranbir or even ranvir.
@@KrishanKumar-ec1ch yeah u r right.
I think Ranbir and Ranveer still have the ability to reach that next level from the younger lot. Their interviews are also compelling, personalities also distinct (ranveer might be a bit too much for me) but they have such immense range that they are bound to surprise us in the near future
@@TriedRefusedProductions ayushman and rajkumar can also become superstars if they get big banner and big budget films. They have shown that they can give hits even with low budget films.
@@baidic ayushman and Rajkumar don’t have the PR to elevate them to superstar status. Ranbir’s PR is on overdrive. PR not everyone can afford .. except the elite and that’s why nepotism is an issue because the starkids are sponsored with heavy PR machinery to project their stardom even when it is non existent..and also the same PR will try to suppress competition outside talent ( negative articles, dismissive reviews, indifference)
These 3 are definitely the last ones. . . PERIOD !!!! They are just not actors for now. . . Each of them are an emotion for every section of the society. . Demographically unified !!! ❤️❤️❤️
@Rajat Tyagi oh yes, man !!! I apologize, HR was, is and will always be the OG. Unke Jaisa koi aur nahi. I am so excited for Badass Ravikumar. . .
Demographically unified is such an important but beautiful point
@Rajat Tyagi b-wood needs to produce more exposes like him to make them the face of MEMES💜💜
Don't forget yash
@@jadagijane2677 he is not a bollywood star
It can be seen from the fact that almost every 90s star is a brand... Even those people who don't watch movies know who is Bhaijaan, Khiladi, Badshaah, or Mr. Perfectionist... But no such tags are given for younger generation
Yeah because they are more versatile. They are not typecasted.
@@baidic +1
Better, they can experiment more with their roles. The way ayushman is typecasted, he destroyed himself in the journey.
@@baidic Bollywood ne last 20 years m ky banya h jisko dekhkar puri duniya appreciate kare?

@@raja-jl9os A lot.
MNIK: this movie paved the way for Indian cinema to reach overseas
Swades, 3 idiots, Taare Zameen par, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Super 30 , PK, Chakde India etc etc the list goes on
Trust me...I am almost 37 now...The influence of cinema is reducing...I remember how the vert first Dhoom just became a style statement for our generation...and
Tere naam...it was a rage... Boys were rushing to parlours to get Radhe style haircut and girls were just carrying peacock feathers in their books...and that I don't think can be repeated now...
But I think the case of Pushpa where everyone was doing the 'jhukega nahi' or KGF's Rocky walk on reels. All of these mannerisms are still being picked up by people because of the impact of films. It may be reducing but those that really click with audiences have a lasting impact still
@@TriedRefusedProductions I agree on reels...but I have seen the impact of movies like Tere naam and Dhoom...it was like our entire culture was assimilating it's effects...
And you have rightly pointed out...The age of digital media is killing the mystical auras that stars had...like my mother tells me that till she was in high school she actually belived that Pran and Prem Chopra are bad people in real life too...now that's not possible in the present age...
@@sk00411 that's a good thing right? Its better to look after your own life rather than waste your time worshipping someone who doesn't even care about your existence.
@@baidic yes and no..because let's take a look at the boycott gang and the haters and their unhealthy obsession with bollywood celebrities...they are devoting even more time looking into the personal lives of these people ...than their fans...
@@sk00411 yeah so I never excluded the boycott gang. I am talking about the audience as a whole.
I think Social media is the biggest reason why todays actors aren't considered stars. Since fans can easily interact and see them on various platforms and tours. The mystery element is missing. But Ranbir Kapoor has benefit in this case
You nailed it brother. The mystique of a star is gone. Plus doing 1 film a year is no no in bollywood. One should'nt over do it but atleast 3 releases a year help the audience connect with a actor (Star if he is good).
People have become too much InTeLlEcTuAl these days 💀the innocence of 70's-90's have gone through modernization with technology
But SRK danced in weddings!
No, that’s the point, Ranbir isn’t a star despite being secretive. Waise toh Emraan Hashmi next srk hona cahiye 😂😂
Aamir Khan also
The reason why there'll be less Mega Stars is because of OTT platforms. It isn't a bad thing since because of OTT people are getting better chance at acting. It is no longer limited to only certain people getting movie projects but many directors/writers/producers are experimenting with projects with new/fresh and underrated actors in their minds. It's the reason why we're getting more Coming of age, drama, family, thriller, action movies instead of just commercial movies, which at one point dominated bollywood industry.
The number of avenues you can see the same actor in definitely diminishes the mysticism they once had. If I can see the same actor on the big screen, netflix, ads and on my instagram, it does take away from being excited for their next release
@@TriedRefusedProductions this thing exactly happened with akshay, whose movies like laxmii, cuttputli etc all these were released directly on OTT. That's the reason ppl now aren't much excited with his next movies like they used to be. Let's see how selfie fares well!
@@TriedRefusedProductions Very well said
@@akashjaiswal8895 bollywood movie 150 million bhi nhi kama pati h 🤣🤣🤣

Well said. Usually people are just blaming influence of West.
I believe it is relatability. The 90’s actors had created a niche for themselves and they made the public feel like they were one among them which made their fandom grow. The times were simpler without social media and the hustle was completely different to what the current generation of actors do. I feel that Bollywood stars these days are influenced by the west. The ’90s stars had a character of their own. The personal connection they had with their fan base is unmatchable let it be the male or female stars.
How are they exactly influenced by the west? Can u elaborate?
@@baidic The way they speak , dresses and the kind of movies they make.
@@sharathKumar-bj4xv examples?
@@baidic The woke shit! Like obviously that's not gonna be relatable for normal people living in India. Be progressive but not in the direction that West has progressed into.
How did they made it relatable by dancing in alps ?
Salman Khan
SRK
Akshay Kumar
Ajay Devgan and
Aamir Khan,
All these have few common things:-
1.They all have started their carrier in early 90s.
2. They all were born in 1965-69.
3.They all are still there even after 30 years with huge fan base.
3. They all have maintained themselves very well physically even having age more than 55 yrs.
4. They all have worked with the top actress of each decades.
5. They all have their different styles and trademark
Salman and Aamir made their debut in late 1980s instead
Most important points :
6. They all are rooted to own culture
7. Always be real in interviews
8. Never hesitate to talk in hindi
9. Help many NGOs
10. Never done so called ART movies or any hardcore intimate scenes
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan- Acting career began in mid 90's and still going stronger than her contemporarys from the 90's, 2000's, 2010's, 2020's................
Unmatched Indian Global Superstar!
@@deea1173matlab kuch bhi 😂😂😂
@@mohdanas8744ais so strong actor always her movie success
People have followed Salman's style since the 90's like his tere naam haircut, his body building, his ripped jeans, his bracelet & much more. These actors became stars because they connect with people with their down to earth persona & they have played the roles in movies which connected with the audience as they played roles of a small town boy.
Salman Khan down to earth?🤣🤣🤣🤣 best joke of the millennium.
And talking about playing small town boy, ayushman and rajkumar have played so many of them. Why are they not superstars?
@@baidic True...in my opinion, everyone is just an average person and we all are superstars of our own lives.....If Star culture can be created and it can also be destroyed.
@@baidic so why they are getting so much famous among other actors? Because they are stars in making, the only thing that is stopping them is their inconsistency with their roles. If you have seen 90's actors, they portrayed similar type of roles for a long time, which got them their tag names by people and due to those names they resonate with the masses. (salman = bhai/ bhaijan, shahrukh = badshah, kingkhan, srk, akshay = khiladi kumar, suneel = anna, sanjay = baba/munna bhai)
Even shahid kapoor got his tag name as a chocolaty boy because he was playing the roles of a common love boy at that time. Ranbir, ranveer, varun, ayushman, vicky, raj kumar, they all are not consistent with their roles and haven't got any tag names for themselves and that is the reason masses can't resonate with them so much.
It's just my opinion maybe i can be wrong.
I think that this generation of Indian movies are now defined by the concept and creativity of a movie rather than the people who are working on it. A *Kantara* can come out of knowhere and mint 400 crores while a *Laal Singh Chaddha* can end up flopping at the box office.
BUT the star power is still very much intact. With VEERA SIMHA REDDY, THUNIVU and VARISU still doing crazy numbers above 100-200 crores: it has a lot to do with the stars rather than the content
@@TriedRefusedProductions only in south not bollywood
I think that would be the best case scenario if we want our film industry to grow, writers should be paid well instead of giving tons of money to the actors
@@insomniac4214exactly 💯 actors should charge less remunerations
And, give more time to the roles they will play
@@TriedRefusedProductions and still you don't report them but Pathaan you don't miss any update. Agar update naa bhi ho toh bhi tweet toh karna hi hain kyunki tumharee Maalik SRK ki movie hain na.
Shahrukh khan,salman khan,amir khan,akshay kumar and ajay devgan. I love these five guys very much. Because they are all working since 90s and they are all part of our culture.
The biggest reason is the internet. Before the internet age the only way you can consume entertainment media are Theatre, TV and DVDs, and there is something common in all of these. That is you see something staring someone (most commonly a Bollywood hero), and in course of time time you become attached to these people because you can relate to these few people's ( fictional heroes) and become attached to them. Fast forward to now, you have web series actors, tv actors, Hollywood actors, youtubers, tiktokers, politicians, cricketers, marvel super heroes, dc super heroes, anime heroes , just way to many choices to able to relate. In short, Bollywood actors now are facing exponentially more competition than the pre internet Bollywood actors.
Agreed. People have more choices now because of internet. Back than we used to see Tv. there were no other options. I used to be huge Srk fan & Bollywood's too. But in the 2010's era when we got internet & Marvel & Dc movies I got attached to Hollywood movies & now this generation kids got more options to choose
( I know my English sucks but you got what I meant 😪😅
You missed to mention Video game characters.....
I have spoken before and I will speak again ..
SRK is not just a name it is a brand it is the pride of India SRK ♥️🔥
Ok
ha teek hain
Ok
There are many other things of India which we should proud of I think India does not need actors aur public figure to be proud it has a great culture ,great people ,great values which sooner or later the whole world will adopt Bharat hamesha mahaan tha ,hai ,aur rahega chahe hum rahe na rahe
Don't give so much build up for a 🤡
The end of Pathaan actually hit me hard, I walked out of the theatre with a sad smile, asking my friend "What after them? Are they it? Why do I feel like they're talking about Ranbir and Ranveer!"
I even told her that, if Pathaan starred anyone else, I wouldn't have watched it in theaters.
The way I screamt and cheered throughout the movie! Damn!
I fear that in the future, movies are just gonna be something you watch to pass time, especially theater visits are just gonna be a mere force of habit(once in week/ month occasion) or a family thing. I fear the absence of passion and the emotions we connect to these stars with in the future, I feel now what my mom felt watching Rajesh Khanna and AB movies.
I'm glad the south fanbase is different, we still cheer the same for Vijay, be it Sethupathi or Thalapathy. But the fear and concern I had in the end of Pathaan was so real, it made me wonder if I'll ever watch a Hindi movie in a theatre, after 4 or 5 years, with the emotions I watch them with now.
Movies are and should be just for time pass/entertainment, not for star worship which 90s audience like u have a habit of.
I just wish this star culture ends one day but it won't be possible till the 90s superstars are there.
Everything has a phase and I genuinely feel some of the younger lot will stand the test of time. It's just bound to happen. You, me and a lot of us just can't envision it right now. You never know when someone just eclipses to that next level
Honestly this is wayy too much fanboyism. Please take care. Focus on other things in life as well.
@@anand.chaudhari exactly. These guys are still stuck in the 90s and want this trend to continue forever. Honestly star culture was the worst thing to happen to Indian cinema.

Our choices changed - we want more diversity in content and want the director’s viewpoint to prevail more over star power , maybe less of the “actor” hype and more of the “director” hype. For instance apart from SRK , today I will any-day choose a Rajamouli film and will not even bother to see who are starring in it. It’s just that films today have rightly become more of a director’s media now .
I agree
Same goes for Raju Hirani
shows clearly you fans support only star power
if manoj bajpayee was hero of Pathan would you have given film 1000 crore if it was PATHAN
for saying apart from srk even srk is surviving because of star power .manoj is better than srk
Not at all. If you wanted more director hype, and less actor hype, more content hype and less stardom hype, at least in Bollywood, An Action Hero would've been a blockbuster, not Pathaan or Brahmastra.
@@vsadha5241 manoj bajpayee would never even agree to do a mediocre movie like Pathaan. That's why he did The Family Man, a spy thriller series better than even the best Hollywood spy thrillers.
As far as iconic Indian spies are considered, for me, there's only one as of now. And the best one. Srikant Tiwari. India's own James Bond, Jason Bourne, Jack Ryan or Ethan Hunt.
Nope they are not last.
Kartik Aryan is the latest of the stars. Despite being a remake the hype generated by shehzada is quite surprising. He has that kind of audience pull.
So is Ayushman Khurana.
Ranbir Kapoor is the biggest star among his generation.
Ranveer Singh too. He just needs to choose the right scripts.
I feel Ranbir Kapoor is still one of the stars because he still has that mystic element about him as he is not on social media. So if u want to see him u got to watch the movies.

The movies are good, except few.
Just the collection is low!
Pathaan is a below average movie, but collection made people think it's good.
Except Shahrukh and Salman nobody ever reached the superstar status even in their generation. They are the only ones who possess the ability to pull crowds to see the star in Bollywood. Akshay, Hritik, Ajay and Saif all had movie releases this year but couldn't get a crowd in the theatres
Yeah i really appreciate your work on this matter, after a long time someone told the truth about this matter 👌👍 Yeah AAASS (Ajay,Akshay,Aamir,Salman, Shahrukh) are the indisputable super stars of Bollywood 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 They are the lasts of superstars 💪
Good video, Jammy! IMO, I think the actors launched after Hrithik Roshan (including Ranbeer and Ranveer) did not have that aura, machoism, or heroism, that SRK, Salman, HR, Akshay, Aamir, and Ajay still possess. These 6 actors are not only just brilliant performers, they look like a real hero on screen (especially in their respective genres). The mass hysteria which Hrithik received, sadly, will never be repeated (at least I can't see that craze for any actor of the younger lot). The craze which people have for SRK and Salman is unbeatable. The faith, which people have in the films of these actors is just too solid, and this faith has only solidified in the last 20-30 years! So, that's true --- this is the last generation of the Real Superstars of Bollywood! Ranbir Ranveer Shahid Ayushman RajKumar etc. are all good --- but they don't have that Aura of SRK, Salman, Aamir, Ajay, Akshay and HR.
The thing is Hritik maintained that aura till today. He kept getting better and better and gave us movies to remember for decades. New generation stars are talented no doubt but it feels like there’s something missing. Maybe their roles doesn’t suit their character in the movies or maybe they failed to make the character like able.
True, I agree. Actors these days just look like normal Instagram influencer or like any other guy. There is no "true masculinity" to be displayed. Might be that most of middle class guys nowadays are brought up in a pampered way so they lack the "hunger" thus lack the heroism or machoism which you say.
why is Akshay Kumar not in the thumbnail man. Been a rough year for him, but he too is a superstar
Bhai he is the biggest hater of Akshay Kumar
@@theupsidedown9101 no he isn't. check the thumbnail of his Raksha Bandhan trailer review, it says "far from over".

But, he talked about akshay too!
@@DjokerFan yes brother, but also a hardcore Bollywood fan, movie buff
in my theory, actors before 2000s had a branded image to them like amitabh bachchan/salman khan the angry young men, rajesh khanna/srk the charming romantic gentlemen, govinda/akshay kumar the kings of humor and comedy. These brand images made masses fall in love with them and enabled a loyal fanbase to be built. The newer generation actors are just actors, they focus more on the characters they play and their acting versatility (which an actor should do ik lmao) but this is what also makes the audience to see them as just actors and not idols to fall in love with. Right now only the south stars hold that brand image which is why commercially their films are doing so well rn.
Exactly
After Hrithik Roshan Ranbir Kapoor is The Last Superstar Of Bollywood...He's never exposed Himself, he is not even any social media platform like Other Actors..❤️
One of the best Humble person in Bollywood ❤️
Lol

@@YashRS0550 They are here due to their talent, by your logic even Sid is getting so many chances but why he is failing? Why kangana is getting chances even after so many flops?

Lol. Bramhastra isn't even a hit. Dharma productions hasn't released the reports yet.
@@Hello-kh6bk No dude. He hasn't given many hits after Barfi. Only ADHM and Sanju are clear hits after 2013. Bramhastra box office records are shady and manipulated.
*The best coment section i have ever read...,ppl are literate sticking to the point and not even abusive or trying to fight just wow and really nicee content put together*
It's not because the actors have become lower, it's because the our generation audience don't idolize people.
One thing you didn’t touch on is that there are no young male heartthrobs in Bollywood anymore, and this is a reason why women/girls are less interested in Bollywood now
They are available on reels for free...why bother bollywood for such a mediocre fantasy
Like everything else, cinema also has to evolve, so the concepts of stars dying out isn't a bad thing. Content is fast becoming the new star and the good thing about this is content cannot be bound by a set formula, opening door to creativity. Hopefully, we will see some amazing, creative films in the coming where content is the superstar.
I am all for people being driven to the stories but we can't be naive and deny the big numbers just the star's presence STILL generate. Maybe it slowly fades away but has not entirely now
What about An Action Hero and bhediya which were good movies with content but they didn't .
That's where you need star power so people gave a chance
It's all about that 1 chance
Esa nahi he ki...kabhi content ki kami thi Bollywood me ..humesha se acchi content wali filme banti arahi he...jo abhi trend chal rahi he theatre me content wali filme chalne ke liye bhi extraordinary content ki zarurat he like Kantara. Agar har content wali filme chalti to...An action Hero bhi chalti.
The concept of stars is still there actually but the meaning is changing. Stars are born out of love and connection, as long there is love and connections stars will be there. Movies I means especially movies will always need stars. You can always read a book if you like stories
But what if a star uses his stardom and public voice for good reasons...for bringing change .....nd uniting people....just like srk did ..converted hate into love...nd like emma watson ..

Lejhand you mean
The emergence of OTT and availability of loads of good content has made a lot of change. In the 90s content to be consumed was limited so the effect of the star people saw lasted longer. In this generation content is the king. That's why people will still storm in for a 'Christopher Nolan' movie but not a 'Christian Bale' movie. And the reason that made Hrithik Roshan an overnight star was the never seen before charm and physicality to the bollywood. He was a fresh thing. Vastly different from the pack. This surprise element is missing in today's stars. Everyone has six-pack abs. Everyone is just different version of a similar personality. I am sure if an Actor rises above the herd of similar looking men, A new star will be born again.
1. People will still, without a doubt, storm in for a "Christian Bale" movie. Solely because the man has made a name for himself based on his acting talent alone. There is no typical "Christian Bale movie". Since Christian Bale hasn't been typecasted. And irl, he's just like a normal guy, like the rest of us. But the guy is a star because of his acting skills.
2. People watching movies because of the story and the characters and not the actors or the stars is a great thing for films.
3. That's just not true. Every actor today is different in personality and acting expertise. Not only does every actor today not have a six-pack, having six-pack abs isn't a personality trait. What's even more important is that a lot of actors today are just great actors. What you actually mean to say is that they aren't your typical celebrities and are just like normal people. Because of course, Indians are obsessed with celebrity culture.
They all r brand since 90s to 2023 it's whole industry depends on this all stars no one can replace
Srk ,Salman ,Amir , Ajay , Akshay , hritik
What I personally feel awe of is the depth these superstars imbibe. I look at SRK, Amitabh Bachan, Aishwariya Rai, or Madhuri Dixit, there is a journey they have travelled, and that life lived has given them depth and mystique. I am not necessarily talking about struggle that they have done in the industry, but a real human connection they bring in their performances and personality which holds our attention. The new generation just doesn't have that. They really seem like kids, too relatable. Except maybe Deepika, I don't think Bollywood has any new-age stars to give.
Simran that is very accurate. And in these years of working, we have in some way seen them in several phases. No wonder we tend to get emotional when they have personal victories, its almost as if we understand what one may have endured and yet persevered
I am not saying this POV is wrong but judging someone just because they have had less hurdles than others is a bit unfair. Even if someone is a star kid (I am not talking about all the star kids) he or she has had their own set of successes and failures. Vicky Kaushal had access to movies but being the son of an action director did not in any way made the process easier for him. Even though Alia Bhatt was given a big break even she had to prove her mettle constantly for audience to accept her. When the news broke that she had been casted for Gangubai there was so much trolling.
PS- It's just my personal opinion that everyone have their own share of struggles. I would appreciate anyone who has done hard work and deserve to be where he or she is irrespective of their background.
Alia and kiara also have mystique about them may be not as strong has aishwariya but they do have it 🙂
@@seemonjena659 I completely agree with you that everybody has reached a certain point in their career owing to their own share of struggle. Each one of them. But my point is talking about distinction between actors and superstars. Maybe it's because I have seen them growing up, superstars that I have mentioned seem almost otherworldly to me. And that's because they bring something magical, almost divine to their performance and celebrity. I believe SRK calls it "adaigi". New age stars have talent, a whole lot of them. But to be a superstar, to hold so much power over millions of people's hearts, something else is needed. I find that magic missing in current generation.
And again, completely my POV.
Lol aunty depression queen cheepika dont any single solo clean hit in her career
The only reason I guess that Khans or more so Hrithik are the last of the stars is because they have an aura (as Karan said), that matured interviews and also they don't publish their personal life elsewhere. Though Ranbir is following it, it might not be good for the young generation fans. So I think there will be no stars or stardom that can be there after the Khans...
Ranbir Kapoor is I think last of the stars, even after hate for brahmastra, his movie did frickin 431 crore and got termed as clean HIT.
I think just collection can't give us a tag of star... It's the connection that people have that made u a star... Amitabh sir's last release was flop but that doesn't means he isn't a superstar now... People still gets fascinated when they hear something about him.. That's what happens with srk, aamir, salman, akki, Hrithik etc.... Their movie announcements create genuine buzz( although Akki is going through a rough patch). L
@@samsingh9550 genuine buzz is also created by ranbir kapoor.
Ranbir doesn’t publish his personal life? 🤣🤦🏻♂
Ranbir Kapoor gets unnecessary hate for being a star kid. Also his personal life was so much targeted due to his love affairs. Otherwise he did have the capability to take it forward. But alas people were more invested in whom he was dating rather than the fine talent he possess
I believe that one of the reason for the shift in inculcating such a massive stardom is more exposure to content n maturity. Nowadays, barring the movies of select few, the crowd do focus on other aspects of a movie which heavily impacts how it may fare at the Box Office.
No one will ever come close to the dominance of the 3 Khans in the Indian film industry. The records they each held for years and continue to do so till this day! Doesn’t matter with the new South Wave, the Khans will remain immemorial. 4 decades of stardom is crazy!
IMO, 90's stars were the last ones to have distinct and unique personas of their own. Shahrukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgan, Amir Khan, Sanjay dutt, Govinda had mastered specific genres but yet, in rare moments, they succeeded in other genres too. Their movies had to run for 10-20 weeks to be called as hits and 25 weeks & above to be called as blockbusters. Thanks to the lack of media and access to their personal lives, we were restricted to their onscreen personality only. So we loved them through the characters they played rather than their real personality. And most importantly they had , even if minimal, courtesy regarding the fans. Today's "stars" have no personality in them. They are porcelain or polished mannequins straight out of a Bandra Kurla complex mall and a common man doesn't connect with them. Their ignorance for fans is also very apparent.
90's stars are so relatable, and i think isi liye aajkal kartik aaryan ko bhi sab pasand karte hai, wo ek great actor nahi hai, good looks bhi itne nahi hai fir bhi aap usse relate kar sakte ho, kyoki wo hamesha accept karta hai ki ha mujhe popular banana pasand hai, me jaan buch kar logo ke bich chala jata hu jisse wo mujse photo khinchva le 😅😅, interviews me bhi Hindi me jyadatar baat karna, aur bhi aage badhne ki chah rakhna, hamesha mummy papa ki baat karna... Ek dum middle class ambitious youngster ke jaise...
Note : me nahi keh raha wo 90's ke star jitna bada banega hi lekin wo kafi relatable hai is baat se bhi denie nahi kiya ja sakta, and main important thing every normal person is rooting for his success (aap recently uske aap ki Adalat ke episode me comments ko dekh sakte hai, jyadatar logo ne paheli baar uska naam suna hai fir bhi sab ki same comment hai ki ye banda aage jayega)
I agree with the last two sentence of yours about bandra kurla and ignorance. It does feel that way about many of the newcomers. Problem is also with the outsiders that last part ignorance also stands for them
To be fair, the stars of 90s had the opportunity to be sassy, bold and give straightforward answers in whatever little interviews and talk shows they did. Opportunity to showcase their personality. There wasn't a fear of riots starting if they said what was on their mind and a bunch of people got 'offended'. The stars of today have to be 'polished mannequins' coz that's how PR works. They have to be palatable for the masses. which means they have to all nice and sweet and politically correct all the time. One frown here and there, one irritated sigh, one frustrated response (eg taapsee pannu) and everyone is quick to brand them everything from 'rude' to 'terrorist'. Sanjay dutt openly admits to consuming narcotics substances in one of his interviews and it didn't suddenly become national news.. Can you imagine if someone did that today? The socio-political climate is just not conducive to actors being frank.
@@artemis-ck6tm also srk smoked on live camera. Can any actor do that today?
Sunny Deol
Nowadays people are not going only for stars in my opinion the people started praising entire movie and becoming fans for each aspect of the films
Some people going for the Director
Some are going Cinematography
And also some people only for Music, Scale and Action.
What I think that there are 3 main reasons :
1. If you look at the earlier films , you will find that whether it's an action film, drama, family or romance , one thing that has always been dominant in them is emotion. People used to feel connected with those feelings , today's generation thinks practically, they aren't considering any actor as God, they're very clear in their minds that these are only actors & acting on a stage , and they don't have to be mad about them.
2. In today's time , the story of films is such that every actor has fans in different categories , for example some actors are liked by young people, some have a crazy fan base in between girls/ women , and some are liked by our parents , but when we talk about srk and sk , we see there's no such category here, people of every age , every gender are their fans .
3. Social media plays a very important role indeed. It gives us opportunity to see them as a normal next door man rather than a mysterious quite charming man who appears only on cinema and we don't know almost anything about him. Everyone seems to be a professional critic nowadays.
Last but not the least , I always wonder , what could be the reasons that no actress has ever had such a strong fan base I the history of Indian cinema ? Please make a video on this .
Shri devi and madhuri dixit
Now pls explain why in telugu cinema, Your points didn't affect much
I do also think.. social media and ott platform played a huge role in this.. todays actor lack the mystery that the previous actors used to have because of their constant social media presence.. also due to ott platform people are now more exposed to different types of content.. and their thought process have changed.. todays generation is more story driven and content driven.. srk amir akshay ajay salman are part of our childhood.. our nostalgia..
It's good!!! People giving more important to content than who is playing lead role in it..i can't it's 100%.. good to it's transition phase...so good actor emerge than only named..
From childhood to now.. ajay devgn is my star 🔥🔥
This trend I Like, it's not about the stars anymore, it's about the Story now ❤️ Let Scriptwriters and Directors take the spotlight now, Rajamouli sir is that herald of Change 🔥
its not changed entirely tho. Movies in the festival periods are all star led vs story driven.

I haved stopped watching Bollywood biggies
Their political take made me out kattar to boycott Bollywood
Srk saying: Deepika is amar i am Akbar and John is Anthony while ignoring the sharp reality in the ground made me realise how out of touch they are with the common people and made me realise i am not wrong boycotting these Bollywood stars

One thing we are totally missing here. The 90s era had entertainment such as Movies and some TV serials. So these actors were main entertainers.
In today's time, we are overwhelmed with content from across the world. So no one is craving for any actors anymore.
Hence for an actor, one film works and others don't.
But the 90s was different. Govinda had a loyal fan base.
Now everything has faded.
It is bound to happen. No one from this generation can imagine, how big Dev Anand was. The era is over.
Himesh Reshammiya is always going to be timeless 🥵
That's what i am saying
The audience has evolved. Period.
Wasn't the case in Pathaan
@@DjokerFan it worked on nostalgia (which always work if done properly) + the current trend of action blockbusters...
@@DjokerFan 90s audiences haven't evolved. They are still stuck in that era.
Kartik Aryan will be the Kartik Aryan on this and forthcoming generation.
Its more of a Societal shift, cine fans of current generation are not obsessed with STAR concept.
Due large number of actors and movies, people have realised that it's just another profession. We do appreciate great movies and acts but we aren't obsessed with actors anymore.
First of all people shouldn't accept movies just because of the star cast. They should try to appreciate the storyline, the script and the direction. Those define the movie.

I have a theory from YRF Spy Universe 💥, in War (2019) we have told off-screen that Khalid is death ⚰ but we'd never seen his dead body so here's the theory, actually the agency which was controlled by Rizwan Ilyasi has brain washed Khalid and erased his previous memories and now they trained him as a Killing Machine just like in Captain America Winter Soldier, imagine the character of Khalid Rahmani was revealed in the post-credit scene of WAR 2 the theaters will turned into stadium again 🌋
Please make a video on this topic 🙏🏻
Sahi Hai Bhai
Bhai operation table pe hi pada tha Original Khalid.
Khalid's dead body was in the operation table when they snatched his face to swap with Sourav. So, this is not a good theory, should pay attention to the movie more.
Although what they can do is - what if Tiger a.k.a Sourav is not dead by the end of WAR but is found alive by the villain gang or something. That'll become interesting. Imo, I would rather have someone else be the antagonist of War 2 (Jim & Kabir's friendship story will be worth watching on the big screen, I don't think it was hinted at for nothing).
Shahid is very underrated,due to his choices more so
Despite pandemic phases with lot's of exposure of regional/international contents through OTT, the star worshipping culture and audiences rooting for them hasn't yet changed, especially in Southern India
Recent avg flicks like varisu, thunivu, veera simha reddy and waltair veerayya all these have huge hits!
I think more than contents, it's the stardom which is the toughest thing to sustain for long and southern stars are able to do that! Don't take me wrong, but it's the trust built among the fans with their larger-than-life mass images.. now, Srk has brought that phase with pathan, which is the reason it's still doing well, even in non-holiday!
Well Audience is the biggest reason for downfall for stardom in Bollywood. They demanded actors to move away from rom-com and larger than life movies to social drams and thrillers and biopics. As a result, actors focused on their character rather than focusing on their image. But South audience have always wanted their actors to make larger than life movies as a result the actors their never lose the stardom. U see the biggest reason why films Like KGF and Pushpa suceeded in North, because they wanted to hero worship why Actor like Rao, Khurana etc didn't provide. But Bollywood are returning to the trend of hero worship with Paathan and audiences have accepted him. Its just masses need hero worhip, and Bollywood listened to few intellectual and lost their way
Star culture is very much in BOLLYWOOD
MANOJ BAJPAYEE,Rajkummar Rao,Nawazuddin Siddiqui films are not even in 1000 crore club
but SRK,SALMANKHAN films only getting 500 crore club even AVG FILMS like Thugs,LALSING got 350 crore club
even average films of AKSHAY kumar get 250 crore club.even GANGS OF WASSIYAPUR is not in 1000 crore club
because srk is not in it
Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is average below average trailer but you will not put it along with Thunivu and Varisu
as you bollywood fan🤣🤣🤣
I really thought, back in 2019, the way that the audience had finally started to give good content a chance, with some of it even going blockbuster, that the next superstar is gonna be Rajkumar Rao or, say, Ayushmann Khurrana. Or maybe even Pankaj Tripathi. But here we're back again. Making stars actors and not actors stars.
@@spacemann1425 what is content for you. Is dangal and lagaan not content for you. Is bb not content you, is 3 idiots not content for you. Naki only movies done by Raj Kumar type actors is content for you
After Dilip Kumar, Rajesh Khanna, Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan only SRK, Salman, Aamir, Akshay, Ajay, and Hrithik are the superstars of Bollywood Industry. Once they are done, I can't see anyone to fill in their shoes.
Indian cinema needs star writers more than star actors, everyone in India if gets a chance want to become a star hero, now with social media everyone believes everything, most of them behave like they are already stars and people are looking at them when they are in public, all this is is happening because of stars, but ultimately it is the writers who can save movies.
I think kartik aryan is slightly better in terms of popularity.
I feel Kartik Aryan will come through...
Hi Anmol,
What a lot of us do not really understand is that the great Indian Cinema is all about reach. What we discard as so called " Mass Cinema" is where the reach is maximum and the 90s star did this on a regular basis. A Rajkumar Rao, no matter how brilliant an actor he is, will always be subjected to a narrow or niche mass appeal because frankly people go for entertainment in cinema not to be educated. Another thing which we tend to forget is the contribution of great directors, a Suraj Barjatiya for Salman or a Yash Chopra for SRK, these are not merely directors, they produced the complete Indian movie. Yash Chopra is known for being the king of Romance but if you do a dichotomy of DDLJ , it had everything, a travel adventure, timeless romance, family bonding and an action packed climax. That's why the Khan's are irreplaceable. You need to reach the heart of the masses, you need that vision.
True. The stories were simple but made with love. Even they become popular in Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia bcs of family friendly appeal.
I don't get that kind of emotions while watching todays movie. Main Hoon Na and Om Shanti Om gave me the feels for last time.
ddlj was directed by his son Aditya Chopra. Yash Chopra directed dil toh pagal hai and darr.
There is a one big reason that everyone is celebrity nowadays any influencer is the celebrity now so the title celebrity lost it charm which it has in 90's
There are no superstars anymore in cinema worldwide. Due to social media we get to interact so often with them that the mystery surrounding them doesn't exist. Also we don't see them as special anymore. Anyone can become a celebrity anytime all we need is a camera and internet connection.
Even today, Aamir, SRK n Salman can give huge bumper openings. SRK's global fandom is unparalleled. Today's actors don't/can't/won't have such aura.
But the loyal fan base the South actors have is another level
Sirf 1st day ko support milta h
Bro Aamir khan have huge fan following in outside India also 👀
I don't think many people are complaining about this. No one needs a star anymore. They just want to see a good movie.... This infact is good where actors are treated as entertainers and not superhumans. We won't have another mediocre actor getting away with hit and run case just because of stardom. I like how society is changing slowly
After the release of 'Jurassic park' and 'Aparaichit' in Hindi dub, Bollywood audience got that there are alternative entertainment options other than Bollywood. And now people love Leonardo or Allu arjun more than Ranveer or Ranbir.
It's about how many options you have.
I think 90s stars had a charm which cannot be replaced. They had their only personality and you could see through the screen that they were enjoying their time on set. Watching them, you wanted to dance with them, root for them, cry with them,laugh,fall in love with them. Nowadays actors do not have the ability to make me feel all these emotions. That’ s way the 3 Khans , Ajay Devgan and Akshay Kumar will be the last of Superstars.
P.s:Also seeing them in movies feels like a warm hug and confort. I do not have the same feelings for any of the new actors
Loved the video and content. IMHO it's definitely got to do with the overabundance of social media presence of the actors. Earlier, the insight into the lives of the "Stars" was limited. So there was an aura around the actors. We wanted more of them. And hence, we used to swarm the movie theatres to get a dose of our favorite stars.
However, in the past decade and a half, we've been exposed to the real lives of the film industry. It's so evident that they do not lead "normal" lives. They live in a different world altogether. We're also seeing their real personalities through one interview or the other. Larger than life parties, drugs, promiscuity, etc. etc. is in front of all of us.
SSR's death and the unravelling of the circumstances also didn't help matters. Thus, there's no more aura or mysticism around the lives of the stars. Having grown up in the 80s and 90s on Bachchan saab's movies and then SRK, Aamir, etc., I used to believe that they are patriotic and honest and strong like the characters they used to portray on the screen.
However, today we know that what the actors do on screen has no bearing to how they actually lead their lives. We see them saying don't smoke or drink alcohol or do drugs on screen and then we see them drunk and dancing in parties. That's why they aren't deemed as stars.
The concept Hollywood stars are pretty much dead with Tom Cruise being the exception. Also he is an unique individual who puts his life on the line just for the fun of danger. In Bollywood the khans and Kumar are the last of the Kind. Availability of content on Internet is a major reason of this shift.
I really admired and love hrithik roshan. Many Still See him as Somebody with looks and great dancer they need to realise he is more than that. He has proven again and again that he is a phenomenal and verstaile actor.
Hrithik Roshan fan since 2000 ❤️💯 The real fighter of bollywood
😂 okay
Over exposure is biggest reason for the death of superstar thanks to instagram snapchat etc. There is zero mystery around them
Bhai 100 baat ki 1 baat ...... Jo impact 90's ke stars ne daala hai Bollywood me wo kabhi koi nahi daal sakta 💪👍 Sab ka unique style hai kaam karne ka aur sab ka ek significance hai industry me 👌 Agar star power dekhna hai toh 90's ke actors ko hi dekho ... 90's ke stars ne directors logon ko banaye hain👍 Lekin aaj kal ke actors ko directors log stars banate hain , without a good director new generation actors are nothing
i think nostalgia has lot of role to play here. These 'superstars' emerged when India itself was changing. We go from an LPQ Raj to the the LPG era. Amongst all the flux in the economy, in domestic politics and society, these stars, by starring in the movies that they did, created a connection not only with the bright future ahead but with the so called roots of the country. That is why Hum saath saath hai, DDLJ, Hum Aapke hai koun etc are still held in so much reverence. And in the 2000's when India became more confident both domestically and internationally, and when the economy was performing securely, these actors starred in similar movies that caught the mood and imagination of the then current generation, the then kids and the elder generations well. So movies like Dil Chahta Hai, Gangajal, Main Hoon Na, Garv etc became popular. Later on when the growth accelerates, we get movies like Hera Pheri , Garam Masla- this is also the time when Saif came out with movies like Hum Tum and Salaam Namaste. Ajay Devgan with his indie movies resonated with a milieu that was looking for an alternative from the mainstream growth and politics esp the young generation. All these factors, have helped create an inter-generational fan base for these actors, that is unsurpassed. A lot has to do with the fact that they 'came out', when India , too, was transitioning. They achieved their peak when India was confident and was economically and diplomatically gaining foothold in the international arena. This is the time when we have Mars Mission, the 2005 Civil Nuclear Deal, double digit GDP growth, etc.
There is so much nostalgia attached with these actors, because they have become representative of India becoming anew. They represent the hopes and aspirations of the generations that have grown up watching their movies and living through them. I adore Salman Khan, i cannot give you a reason why. It has been so since i was 5. People hate on him so much these days and ask me why i am still his fan. How do i explain my childhood dreams and memories to them?
this kind of appeal is lacking in these young era actors.Like my dad doesn't see the appeal of Kartik Aryan, while my young cousins are his fans. My younger sister and I are ambivalent. This inter-generational appeal is missing. It also has to do with the fact that people have a lot more avenues to look up to now.
TRUE salman khan is the biggest megastar..bigger than shahrukh Amitabh
Your kartik aaryan point of view is so on point, srk was ideal son, brother, lover, father so everyone in the family feel connected to him but our parents doesn't want son like new gen actors, now only lover personality is open but not ideal son, even husband (so many movies where husband cheats nowdays), brother and that is why they are not well connected to families
I think it's rather a blessing in disguise, Because now "The story is the star" , If a movie has banger story then the sequel creates hype despite having maybe a complete newcomer to the industry or an actor no one has heard of before hand case and point KGF and Bahubali ( I know many people were aware of Prabhas but still)
You're right
Maybe there will always be a new generation that will have a new generation of superstars. For our parents it was Dilip Kumar, dev Anand or Dharmendra, Amitabh, etc. for us late 80s-early 90s born, it was srk, Salman, hritik, etc. for the generation that’s growing up today, Ranveer, Ranbir, Karthik might be their nostalgia in 10 years.
I feel the reason most people are having a good second innings is partly because of the nostalgia.
Log rajamouli aur lokesh kangraj ko dekhne jaynge na ki Bollywood k chapri actor ko dekhnge
I feel that Aamir, Salman, Shahrukh, Ajay & Akshay are the last stars due to the fact that they all made such a landmark with box office, performances in which people know Bollywood because of them.
With young generation, it seems that they aren’t going anywhere close to these guys because people don’t have no interest nowadays or perhaps even the new actors can’t replace old actors by doing something the same stereotype and narrative in their movies.
Prime example would be Varun Dhawan, being a starkid, is trying to imitate Salman & Govinda acting which we have already seen 25 years ago in 90s decade.
So true! 90's stars and movies are still loved and the nostalgia is ❤. I think apart from the social media and people asking for better content now, not many actors of this generation has given or created a niche character yet. Like Srk is known for being Rahul due his ultra romantic roles which could essentialy be any guy you meet but is still a little our of reach. Same goes for Salman being ultra masculine strong fighter guy. Even Amir being a super kind guy who brings awareness about social issued and is funny/ chill rather than preachy. Even Hritik is a star mostly because of dhoom and krishh. All these characters are basically without any fault, perfect but still gives you a feeling that you can meet a man like that. That is just not consistenly seen by actors today. No actor has been able to create a niche character which has been succesful for few films. Ranbir is closest to doing this, but he hasn't done it enough yet. I think you need to be type casted to be a star and give a perfect public image which is similar to your niche character.
End of stardom showing audience maturity👍
Bollywood dont make world class movies
@@raja-jl9os swades
In all Bollywood fans Salman has has the most loyal Fans ❤
The 90s stars are old now and new stars don’t have the charisma or the passion for the craft of acting. Karthik with time will be promising if nepotism doesn’t try to suppress his stardom like they did with sushant!
The hunger to rise and shine is missing. When you have that fire in yourself to make it to the top, it shows in your eyes and in your portrayals. Like if i was to see Ranbir or Siddharth or Varun on screen. The fire and intensity is missing. Ajay Devgan has those intense eyes still. Hrithik has that impactful voice. Even, Akshay retains that comic timing. They don't have to try too hard to impress the audience! They have retained their signature style!
I believe this is because not enough time has passed. Once time passes and television channels start broadcasting 2000 era movies in their channels instead of Sholay, K3G re-runs, for that generation of kids/young adults Ranbir/Ranveer and others from the same batch might be the heroes. Once us and more of the generations of people who grew up watching Big B SRK Hrithik whittles and dies, their stardom might dim too. As long as nobody keeps forcing their choices down to their descendants. Their records and achievements will be there courtesy of the internet, but let enough time pass, the batons of these stars might pass on to new generations too. That hasn't happened yet because enough time has not passed. Too soon to expect such results. But we can keep hoping to get a new age SRK, Aamir from these young guys!!
@Max Tax which actors are u talking about?
@Max Tax ranbir and ranveer are good actors way better than sallu uncle.

I genuinely feel like the only actor of this current generation who has that aura of a superstar is "Yash" from kgf ...there is something very unique about the way he carries himself he looks like a superstar .
Nah dudes acting needs a lot of work
Are acting toh Salman bhi kuch khaas ni krta i m talking about the aura bro
He’s a self made guy work hard with passion, dedication and is a go getter. He made kgf what it is not just has an actor but how much he believed in it and took to the movie to Mumbai. His interviews are highly inspiring for a common man.. I can’t think of one Bollywood actor who people can see as a role model .. with yash you can see him as a role model in real life.
The thing I feel is that people are more exposed to information about the stars themselves. There is no more delusion about who their favourite actor is.. whether he plays a hero or a god , one good scandal is enough to put a dent in the mystical trust the fan had with the actor and I think its a good thing. Blind admiration from someone is a dangerous tool in the hands of an artist with ill intentions and from an actor's point of view they'll still get all the money and less creepiness and stalker vibes.
Maintaining fitness and taking care of your looks and health has also contributed to the longevity of these actor's stardom. Earlier, actors were not that into fitness n as they grow they start looking old with buldging belly and wrinkled faces which would not appeal to the Indian audience.. who still judge a person by the way he looks and what he wears.
But now, the actors are more serious about they eat, when they sleep, does all sorts of weights training n diets which help them to keep them looking younger and this adds to their longevity. And as the old known heroes haven't left so the new ones haven't got the bollywood thrones to sit on, haven't got their share of stardom.
Once these veteran stars looking old then audience will start looking out for new options. This has happened to Amitabh, Rajesh Khanna, Mithun, Govinda n Sanjay Dutt as they failed to maintain their fitness!
People have become matured in good way regarding stars. At the end they will not feed us. Now people think , analyse then go to theatre and spend money sensibly. Not blindly following any star which is good for individual
Here to support Ranbir Kapoor. He, for me, is the superstar of the generation approaching 30s. YJHD, Rockstar and Tamasha have a separate fanbase. Not only because of his acting, but also due to his dance, style and charisma. I would definitely go and watch his movies.
Why didn’t you watch Shamshera? There were 3 people in the theater when I went watch it.😅
@@kanaka7552 and these 3 people f your and ranveer singhs mom
@@kanaka7552 i agree on the point that that ranbir is not a superstar but movies of salman,hrithik,amir,akshay also failed. Runway34 was also flop. Even srk was yet to give a hit film since 8 years before pathaan.
@@kanaka7552 Salman constantly gave flop movies between 2000 and 2009. So did SRK between 2011-2020. It was Amir who was consistent. As per your logic, Amir is the only superstar then. I am talking about the charisma and style apart from the acting abilities that Ranbir has which is missing in most of the stars today.
