THE TRUTH ABOUT THE NUMBER GAME AND FACTS!!!! THIS IS SOMETHING DEVASTATING TO HEAR ON REDIFF. SINCE WHEN DID "HEHEHEHEHE",(SOUNDS LIKE A DONKEY) START TAKING STATS ON INDIAN FILMS, ACTORS/MOVIES.i LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHICH HAS THE SECOND LARGEST INDIAN POPULATION TO INDIA. IN THIS COUNTRY YOU DONT GET PEOPLE TAKING STATS. THE AVERAGE AMOUNT OF TAMIL FILMS SHOWN IN THIS COUNTRY ON THE BIG SCREEN, I WOULD SAY IS ABOUT 10%. WHAT DO YOU SAY hehehe! DO YOU KNOW THAT YOUR TAMIL FILMS ARE NOT AS POPULAR AS HINDI FILMS, AND THAT MORE TAMILS OPT TO SEEING HINDI FILMS THAN TAMIL FILMS. YOU SHOULD CATCH A WAKE UP CALL HEHEHE, AND STOP TRYING TO CREATE COMPETETION BETWEEN HINDI AND TAMIL FILMS, BECAUSING I THINK THAT YOU ARE LOSING IT.!!! TONY. B
NO doubt about that Aamir Khan is real Number One . versatile actor . Aamir Successful without any help from big banners and directors . and shahrukh need support from media , bigbanners like yash raj and karni johar , without this he is tapori kind of sadak chap actor .

can I ask u how come amir is no. 1 as actor....these r just entertaining actors...if u wanna see real actors and top performances...then see these
1. ompuri in aakrosh 2.anupamkher in saaransh 3.amrishpuri in suraj ka satvaghoda 4.nutan in sujata 5.nutan and ashok kumar in bandini 6.Dilip shahab in devdaas(srk is literal joker in newone) 7.amitabh in aakhri rasta dev and black 8. sanjeev kumar in sholay 9.prithvi raj kapoor in mughal-e-ajam 10. nargis in mother india 11.Devanand in guide and bombay ka babu 12.Gurudutt in pyaasa 13.Nana patekar in prahaar yugpurush and wajood. 14.Irfan khan he has acted best in sesh prashn(serial)
aamir wamir is lil child infront of these legends of hindi cinema.
wat was in tare zameen par.....i bet u all just watch any movie of bimal da(bimal roy) it will be far more serious far more realistic and carrying far more lesson.
its just media hype that has made amir no. 1 else he is no where when it comes to some great work
Yes! both are idiots! if u consider commercial sucess no one can beat Rajanikanth! if acting is the criteria them aamir khan is still a buchha infront of legends like mohan lal,mummotty, and teh KING Kamal Hassan!grow up bollywood!

c yaar..dont ever exhibit dirty regionalism publicly.There is no south nd north as well.We are all Indians,nd should be proud for that.dont be so mean n narrow minded. And coming to your question,Do you know who has won the most national awards n international awards as well. Ooops,you may not be knowing.. Mr.kamal hasan has bagged most of the national awards,ahead of any actor.He is also winner of 14 filmfare awards.nd my dear,where does he hail from..? do you atleast know that. I tell you one thing,dont ever slip your tongue,without knowing the content.

mummotty? who is this guy? never heard. rajnikanth...ya he's good but not at national level...i think aamir is awesome, he could have done tonnes of more hit movies but he does meaningful stuff and every movie is hit.

Boss its not to degrade anyone but i think all are good and each have there own style of working so we should like there work not south or north we r indian if we would like to compare within ourself then we should compare on the basis of talent not on the basis on region
By the way mr amit tiwari jee agar AMIR ko National award he nahi mila tho OSCAR ........

Both Rajni and Kamal Hasan are good actors - but you must agree to the fact that there are aged and there era is coming to an end, not the Shah Rukh and Aamir are too young - but certainly younger compared to Rajni and Kamal.
RE:Both are idiots!
by varun on Mar 14, 2008 06:24 PM
well,era is not going to end atleast for Kamal.. to do quality roles and character age is not required.. directors will come up scripts matching his age.. he may have to stop romancing heroines on screen but thats not goin end his era.. by the way wat sharukh can do ? he is also old.. cant do any other role other thna love stories? ppo fellow!
RE:RE:Both are idiots!
by Saurabh Mishra on Mar 14, 2008 06:42 PM
its true the ones u mention are greats...much much better actors than shahrukh khan..but we cant ignore the fact that he is one intelligent guy who knows how to cash on his popularity!!

by Farhath Abbas Mirza on Mar 17, 2008 03:04 PM
The discission was between Shahrukh and Aamir.. From where did south indian actors come into the picture ????
These guys didnt understand what Aamir said. He asked to comment on- Aamir endorses Samsung and SRK endorses Nokia. So Aamir said that SRK enjoys coming second. He meant that NOKIA is second to SAMSUNG. No doubt the pun was intended but, that was the real reason for Aamir saying it
