Next Bollywood King and Queen?

In the 1990s, a group of stars emerged in Bollywood, such as SRK, Amir, Salman, Salif Ali Khan, Ash, Zinta, Rani. They brought the Bollywood out of India, leading by King (SRK) and Queen (Ash), which was symbolized by the Devas entered Cannes and then Ash goes to Hollywood.

Ten years later, Bollywood is still ruled by them. But SRK has already reached his 40 and Ash is over 30 and going to marry. Clearly, the future of this movie kingdom cannot rely on them. They are the sun at the noon and sunset will be followed. Is there any promising morning stars shining? Doubtful.

Apart from good script and good directing, movie stars are always the crucial part of the cinema. It would not be a good thing to see the Bollywood cinema is facing the problem of their aging Kings and Queens without a new generation as great at their elders. And this might make the cinema going down.

完全同意. Bollywood青黃不接的問題早已出現.

3Khans老化(Salman更是過氣), Ash濫拍(?), Kajol早就半退休, Madhuri Dixit湊仔湊女不復出, Zinta和Rani變化不大, Abhishek Bachchan跟父親差天共地, Kapoor Sisters更不用提.

新一代小生方面, 其實Hrithik Roshan不錯且有潛力, 但他產量不會像SRK般"瘋狂". 而且他當了爸爸, 可能會減少"萬人迷"的形象.

印度影迷倒不瘋魔的不讓偶像結婚.(可憐的劉天王.)
在印度問起影迷.salman不結婚被一干男影迷說:"頭腦有問題,四十歲了還不結婚."女性觀眾喜歡歸喜歡,但她們二十開外就結婚了,更樂觀salman與女友修得正果.roshan看似早婚,但在一般平均值中(明星大多晚婚).
那個小的kareena kapoor實在沒有觀眾緣,偏偏年年filmfare magazine進榜. 新一代女演員就vidya balan漂亮有氣質.diya mirza又太溫.男演員saif ali khan流氣.
不知道還有誰能接下寶座>而且要海內外通吃.
