The three Emperors in Bollywood
by Unleashed on Dec 10, 2012 09:00 PM  | Hide replies

1. Dilip Kumar
2. Amitabh Bachcan
3. Shahrukh Khan

You may or may not like them, but it has to be accepted they were more popular than their colleagues by a fair margin.

Absolutely not, during Dilip's times, Devsaab and RK were equally popular with the audience. In fact many preferred the latter two as their movies would be less heavy as compared to the tragedy king.

No I mentioned that Devsab and RK were eqully popular. That means Dilip was not more popular. He was one of the popular actors of his time.

actors look like a bunch of monkeys in front of Dilip Kumar.

The new actors have little talent and no grace or style whatsoever.

There are no movies that dont use double meaning words or show off scantily dressed heroines.

Talk about progress.

I liked Planet of Apes series.

Most of the SRK movies are a straight copy from the original one.

aaaa (What's that?) If you are supported by Dawood would you aquire the status of Dilip Kumar and have run of 60 years with quality as well as popular movies?
A Dadasaheb Phalke and a small percentage of respect he commands?You can be a Don with the support of Don but certainly not a popular actor. Give it a try !

Shyam Kumar
Over-rated

D K is the most over-rated actor in Indian cinema!

All he did was act like he had been unable have any bowel movements for months.

The 'Tragedy' in this "Tragedy King of Indian Cinema" was his acting which was a tragedy for any one who had to sit through his movies!

Happy Birthday to great actor
by md farruq on Dec 10, 2012 04:32 PM  | Hide replies

He's a legendary thespain in every sense, despite being born in 80's I can say he's one of the terrific actor(s) who made our country proud by his acting skills back from 50's to early 70's & a few selected movies in 80's.

Today's generation of actors need to learn a lot from the ways Mr. Dilip Kumar behaved with colleagues, friends & his co-stars.

What does "Ultimately Method Actor" mean?

Was he some other actor before, who ultimately became a method actor?

Do you even know what method acting is or you are just spewing terms you heard someone else utter?

Are you from Lucknow, the capital of Gutter Pradesh, the open sewer of North India?!

Best actor ever..
by suhail on Dec 10, 2012 03:54 PM

Dilip Kumar is the best actor ever in the commercial house cinema of India. I once watched his movie Naya daur. His performance in that movie was very simple, natural but real class. I will never forget that movie ever. You cant compare SRK or Amir Khan to his talent.
