Like the Big B, legendary music director S D Burman had also told his son R D Burma that the day people start calling SD as RD's father, it will be a sign that RD has arrived on the Indian musical firmamment. It happened one day on Juhu beach when somebody addressed SD as RD's father.

I would like to suggest everyone not to fight about who the better actor is. I'll tell you both are best in there own unique way. Amitabh is God and please don't try to pull him down coz sky cannot be touched. Amitabh is doing what a doting father does so does every responsible father does. So stop comparing and let us enjoy there movies and hope we get best acting as well as best movies from all of them. Regarding the media it is their job to make fools of poeple and we the people should understand before giving any statement or declare anything. Think before speak. We love you Amitabh, Abhishek, Hritik, John, Shahrukh, Salman, Sanju, Arshad etc etc......ALL THE BEST BOLLYWOOD ...BE THE WINNER IN GLOBAL MOVIE INDUSTRY.
Every father is proud of his son. One day you will become a father and you can realise this fact. Whenever Hrithik is praised by his father why you donot object. Is it because Rajesh roshan is an oridinary man and he has not achieved anything as a HERO???

You say all this even after Dhoom 2 ? If you go to Rakesh(he does not go to the media) and ask about his son and he praises him he is only telling the truth.what do you expect him to say? Atleast they work together and have done the best work together,still is he wrong if he praises his son? The strange thing about Amitabh's interview was that he went out of the way and said things like Drona ,Jhoom Barabar will all be hits.Abhishek is great in all of them etc etc..This is hard sell ,not genuine praise.
RE:Why Rakesh roshan praises his son hrithik
by savita on Feb 13, 2007 02:50 PM
If you are not aware Hrithik always praises his father for the values he learnt from him, as a hero in real life not reel life.And by the way Rajesh is his uncle not his father. rakesh Roshan is one of the most successful directors of all time, it is just that he does not get publicity the way the Chopras and johars do..
I guess this is only becoz to promote Ash and Abhi a hit pair. They have had string of flops as a lead pair. So the publicity is the only medium to declare them a hit jodi. As of date Ash has always been a jinx to her Boy friend's career during their relationship. Now this is happening to Bachhans.
that is how the media in India has progressed ( actually degressed is a better word). First there was News, as in 8:40 PM news bulletin on DD1. We use to get daily dose of happenings. add to it News This Week on Fridays. then with private channels coming in, we had sensational news. then we had 24 hour news channels. we had sensational stuff, which in no measuring standards be considered as NEWS! In fact if you happen to watch the news during prime time, and then check the newspaper the next morning, more than 90% presented as news on TV does not even make it to the print media. given the fact that the print media in India is not in a great shape either, you can see the level and standard of the "News channels". In fact it is more like a pack of stray dogs fighting over a piece of bone.
AB is such a hypocrite. Talking about praising his son. Have you ever heard him praising any other actor? And for that matter why doesn't his wife Jaya praise her son? She has been an achiever in her own right.Almost every film that she has acted she has won an award! The family thinks that Amitabh's word will carry more weight on his son's performance.Or that will make it more obvious. I for one think that Jaya and not Amitabh is a bigger achiever. As for Abhishek no one would have given him a chance if it was not for his qualification of being Big B's son!It's high time Big B retires and makes room for the younger, more talented actors who dont have Godfathers in the industry. He should take a tip frm Lataji and not be in the rat race.He has earned money, fame, name in India and abroad.Ab uske bare mein sun kar bore ho gaye!

Dear Mr. Bisoyi: I don't really scan the newspapers & keep track of every interview given by Big B. I'm simply voicing my opinions regarding a known personality. I do like Big B a lot. However there are many other actors who've given more commendable performances than junior B. Guru may be a good film but abhisheks performance can hardly be labeled as a "lifetime" performance. Once again I'm voicing my opinion. You sir are entitled to your opinion/s. You may feel that abhisheks performance was exemplary but please don't force others to "see" your point of view. Thanks for leaving behind your comments though.

Since when was praising one's own kids hypocracy? either your dad never praised you OR you never had a dad OR maybe you never gave him an iota of a chance to praise you. might be that you are a loser for life.
do u understand what Hypocrite means? here is the definition for you : Hypocrite - 1.a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, esp. a person whose actions belie stated beliefs. 2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, esp. one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements

Why do you bring Roshan into everything? First of all Rakesh roshan has directed hrithik, so he can make comments on his son's acting abilities. Moreover their movies have been really huge hits and ofcourse they will promote their movies together-should he be criticizing his son? Secondly Hrithik is the best actor we have in the industry and his hit rate is also the best - he has done less than half the movies than AB and delivered such huge hits which AB can only dream of...
RE:Big B-The Great!

Dear Mr.Sameer umralkar: I see that you have very strong feelings for the Bachans. However that gives you no right to talk about my father or my life. This is a public forum to comment on the related article & not on the people leaving their comments. I know what a hypocrite is but nevertheless thank you for the definition.However you may need a lesson or two on what a public forum means & how one must leave comments.
I fail to understand why the press is after the Bachchan family, especially MIDDAY. Each and every recent article (first there was an article about Abhishek trying to play a superhero to 'beat' Hrithik Roshan, then an article about Amitabh going overboard praising his son's act in GURU, and now the lead story on Jan 26, 2007 about Mr. Bachchan wanting to do an uninvited interview and how he has not watched SRK's KBC) smacks of a hidden agenda to bring down the Bachchans on a public platform. Amitabh hasn't spoken at all about his son all these years. Amitabh could very well have backed his son (just as Mr. Rakesh Roshan carefully and very cleverly portrayed only Mr. Hrithik Roshan%u2019s --and Mr. Hrithik has been doing ONLY this since his first film; even KOI MIL GAYA had him flexing his muscles!!-- strengths like dancing and his awesome physical plus points) and got him to work with the best of directors and producers instead of just sitting and watching his son render flops after flops (the count is lost!!). He maintained a dignified silence and waited for his son to come into his own with his own efforts. Finally, the moment has come with GURU. And this is no filmdom politics. Mr. Mani Ratnam has himself stated that if he were to start GURU again, his first choice would still be Abhishek. And Mani Ratnam is a person who really means what he says. After Guru, Mr. Bachchan is genuinely happy and is expressing it. He has always been a reticent person and it is indeed a little surprising that he is so effusive about his son%u2019s success. But this is just his emotions coming forth. What is the problem with this? Why does the press want to play Hrithik to the gallery to downplay Abhishek? This is a deliberate attempt to make the people feel that Bachchans are a desperate and insecure lot. It truly was great of Abhishek to have done DHOOM 2 when he knew that Hrithik had an author backed role and would obviously be the heart of the film. And the film has exploited Hrithik's strengths (cleverly hiding his weaknesses, such as emoting range!!) and come out a success. Everyone knows nobody in the film industry today is as agile and graceful as Hrithik when it comes to stunts, dances, and roles that demand extreme physical adventurism. Why praise this to the skies just to degrade Abhishek Bachchan? And now when Abhishek has truly struggled, worked hard, and come out a success--hell, even the international press like NYT , LA weekly, VARITY seem so think so -- look what our very own people are doing!!! Please do not compare Hrithik and Abhishek. It is Abhishek's time now to reap the fruits of his hard work. Do not poison it with adulterated journalism. As though this is not enough, one sees news about Amitabh not watching SRK's KBC3 . Just so you know, there are many, many people who haven't watched it. I can predict very well what is going to happen next. Down the line, there surely will be a piece about how SRK has overtaken Amitabh in KBC and how Amitabh has been insecure about it and how he has been trying to see that SRK doesn't succeed!!

This again shows the extemity of your thought process. The fact of the matter is, Abhishek was always a good (I am saying good, not better or best)actor. After the idiotic KNPH craze, the media went crazy promoting him and bringing down Abhishek Bachchan. I stand by my statement that Hrithik IS NOT A better actor than Abhishek. It was and is only hype that Hrithik Roshan is riding on. He is being given more footage than he deserves. About his acting in Fiza or Mission Kashmir, just DOING OFFBEAT film do not make anyone a GOOD ACTOR. He is a terrific star, but his acting prowess is NO BETTER THAN ABHISHEK'S. Try to imagine Hrithik Roshan pulling off a Lagaan. You will understand then. And by the way, winning awards in India is not a barometer (except, to some extent, the national awards). The bigger success a film is, the more award its actor gets. Mr. Shahrukh Khan is the best example. He has won more awards than Amitabh Bachchan or Dilip Kumar. And everyone knows about Khan's acting range.

Hrithik Roshan being given hype..r u crazy.. he is unfortunate being in Bollywood that his potential is not as yet being utilised. His bad luck is that he is the most underrated actor in the industry and overrated stars like Abhishek (especially after 25 flops with extremely poor acting and bad performances except 1 or 2) are provided with a lot of media attention... and about awards, yes ..Abhishek won an award for Yuva and that must be fake according to you, isn't it..and Lagaan plz don't tell me that you are imagining Abhishek in that role (if that yes, you must be a fool!) you go and get your knowledge of movies and your perceptions brushed up!

I thought you said hrithik cant act,now u r saying movies in which he acted are flops.Hrithik has delivered such huge hits, AB cant even dream of it! If Hrithik's body is all that is needed to make his movies a hit, Abhishek should try showing his body(?) too. And by that logic John Abraham's movies should be blockbusters!
RE:RE:RE:A media war
by ABHRA CHEL on Feb 02, 2007 10:16 AM
it seems you are either raja or nisha!
man (or woman), you are highly confused....first you are saying good about 'acting prowess' of Hrithik (and, who told you Krrish and Dhoom 2 were the films where Hrithik had not acted well... he is getting awards all over the globe for his acting performances in these two films). You are also saying 'acting flops'....so, does it matter if an actor acts well (that's his job) but the film fails to earn huge sum of money (that's producer's job)
Highly ridiculous is the fact that you guys (or gals) considers acting without looks, stunts, dances, powerhouse performances, electrifying screen presence, facial expressions, unscripted dialogue delivery, character embossment etc. etc. For you, means throwing powerful dialogues on screen which is tailor-made for a hero. This is disgusting, i mean do you abhishek fans have some sense or not...!
RE:A media war
by Rakhi Gupta on Feb 02, 2007 09:53 AM
Your completely right. THere is a definite campaign to pull down the Bachchans. Is it because Abhishek is emerging as an amazing actor and marrying supposedly the most beautiful women in the world. Too much good luck in one family. So the press wants to pull them down. I dont know how people think he is being boastful by praising his son. What do people expect him to do disgrace him or put him down. Plus, Hrithik still needs to prove himself as an actor 3 of the four successes were all movies made by his own father. If Bachchan was trying to promote his son , he would started producing movies for his son. The fact is the likes of Ram Gopal Verma and Mani Ratnam have chosen him as they saw potential in Ab's baby. These are not some fluke directors. If one would watch Mein Prem Ki Deewani Hoon one can see Abhishek is a much better actor then Kareena and HRithik combined. Hrithik did not have a true chance to show off his muscles and dancing skills in that movie. About SRK, It is clear that the Bachchan family and they get along very well. This is media pitting them against one another. The MEdia has not found other things to discuss so creating messes around the Bachchans has become the thing to do.

you truly can join an extemist gang yaar!! u r way too violent with your thoughts. It is extremely irrational and reflects blind logic on your part. Hrithik should be in Hollywood!!!!!!!!! Jesus Christ, gimme a break!!! Having good muscles, fair skin, dancing like a dream don't make anyone a Hollywood contender!!! Please! And when I said awards, I meant Hrithik Roshan's, I meant the riduculous number of awards he won for his STAR TURN in KNPH. When it comes to KMG, Mr. Hrithik's self-persona screams from every angle of his movements and his facial expressions in the first part, where he plays a child. YOU CANNOT SEPARATE HRITHIK ROSHAN, THE STAR FROM THE CHARACTER AT ALL!!!!If you wish to 'UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF CINEMA' watch the last part of Sadma where Kamal Hassan emotes as a mentally challenged person to get Sridevei to recognize him. What he has done in the last 2 mns, Hrithik couldn't do even 1 percent of it in KMG. KMG is a big joke from the Roshan family. And listen, I have never said that Abhishek is better than Hrithik or vice versa. All I am saying is, Hrithik was given unnecessary and undeserving hype during his time after KNPH. And he is a STAR first, an actor (limited) later. I have presented only a non partisan view. It is not to compare the two. If people can rip Abhishek's performance JUST BECOZ HE IS THE SON OF A BIGGER STAR, it can be done with Hrithik Roshan too (the son of a NON ACHIEVER - in acting field and direction too!! - His films may be big hits but they are crass and silly). I fell laughing off my chair seeing KRISHH. A SUPERHERO FILM!!! Giving competition to Hollywood!!! My God!!

Hrithik cant act! what was Lakshya? What was Dhoom 2? Shekhar kapoor says that hrithik is fit for Hollywood and we can go with his judgement rather than yours since he is a Hollywood maker himself.If acting in father's movies is a sure road to success then Uday Chopra should be the best actor today! Even after Dhoom 2 you find a way of putting Hrithik down and keep harping on the fact that only his ftather's movies are hits. well just before he made KNPH Rakesh made Koyla with srk and it was his biggest flop!And considering the fact that you do not like hrithik why do you even waste youyr time watching his movies. I simply dont watch AB's movies.The trailers themselves put me off, that is good enough...In most HR's movies,he was not the central character and if dhoom2 can be called anAB hit considering the fact that he was sleepwalking in the movie, HR surely deserves credit for KKKG, where he did a great performance even though his role was small and he shared screen space with srk and BB!hrithik is good in every movie of his whether they r hits or not, AB is inconsistent ans we cant even sit through any of his movies shown on Tv ar cable. So go jump...

I am so sorry for so called Hrithik Fans. Hrithik is a Father's film wonder. Listen Abhishek can be easily Fit In lagan. and he may do it even better than Aamir. Now About KMG those Bhola Bhala Roll can be done even any actor of Bollywood. Now let me tell a true Thing. Hrithik is a Dancing hero not action Hero. In Dhoom2 that stupid Aryan roll can be much better done by Akshay Kumar. Akashay, Ajay and all did their stunt by themselves. Hrithik des not have single intensity to play the roll of even Kabir (John Abraham) of Dhoom1. Only media hype has made this bellow average movie hit. in Mishon Kashmir
People prasied Sanjay Dutt not Hrithik. Now let me tell you one thing. Hrithik even can't think
to do one Lalan sing of yuva and Shakar if Sarkar. After Five years Hrithik will be another Kumar Gaurav. becasue Hype is temporary and Substance is permanent. This constant truth for Father's Film wonder Hrithik Roshan and Rediff stop promoting bellow average Hrithik Roshan.
