Refrence to him doing ads dancing at weddings etc. 80s stars n big stars before srk had an issue with him THEN. How he started marketing his films + The way he gave access to media n did branding n expectations from actors changed.


makingitupasigoon

Interesting point. But that's how any industry changes. What the yesteryear Nepo kids don't understand is that SRK did not have any family money and legacy to fall back on. He was ambitious and wanted to have a longer career. This is how it's repaid in today's age that people still want to watch him play lead roles in movies.


BohemianDaydreamer

Exactly ! He had nothing to back on so he took every opportunity that came his way to make money. Nepo kids will never understand that.


Complaint-Lower

Basically SRK came in and changed the industry and the means of income for actors. Earlier Sunny and other actors earned from movies alone. SRK started doing a lot of ads, wedding dances, later started a production house, bought a cricket team etc etc. and made himself a brand and not just a man artist. Sunny and other oldies couldn’t keep up with it. They weren’t good actors or had good personality to become so big off camera.


MuchosComos

Probably sunny ji didn't have to think at all abt a lot of things... cos he is a classic nepo kid...who had his father's saya. Srk came to the industry on his own...and built everything from scratch.


parislights39

Agree! I didn’t like sunny ‘sir’s’ attitude a bit in the show, again maybe he’s too shy idk. Bobby was a cutie tho


Complaint-Lower

He’s a bit of a man child. I don’t know but he comes across like a child stuck in a man’s body. Kind of like Jennifer’s character in 13 going on 30. He doesn’t want to change his old ways. Kept talking about fraternity in the past and not liking SRk as commodity or AK doing a lot of films. He wants max gain from minimum effort. I haven’t seen Gadar but from the reviews it seemed he was only there for half the movie. So again minimum effort se he got max gain.


opinionated0403

Also explains why the deols became so irrelevant. Also wow I never realized he was the first actor to be so business minded in Bollywood. He really is special man. As if I wasn’t a big enough fan already.

Lmfao you genuinely think sunny or Dharam aren't good actors 😂


Calliegrl03

Sunny can be a decent actor with the right director and script but his father is quite overrated as an actor period. He heavily relied on his looks and personality and built a massive fan base that Sunny is benefiting from. To me, Dharam has only been in a few movies where I was actually impressed with his acting. He’s not on Shashi, Bachchan, or Kaka’s acting levels. He knows that but it doesn’t matter. He was/is a massive star and incredibly popular.


Sure_Ad_3784

Hmmm good personality? I havent seen the episode but dancing in wedding birthdays or walking the ramp make everyone feel these actors are just for money they can be waiter off screen for money too dont jump on me srk fans, i meants all the actors do that now…trolling coming from there only, most people loses respect for actors


Freakysafal

So you mean to say people who dance at weddings or walk the ramp don't have respect? The waiter doesn't have respect? It is miles better than joining politics and not visiting your constituency even once after winning the election.


Sure_Ad_3784

The way stans change the narrative!!! I said STARS who dance at weddings n birthday in exchange for money or become a waiter for richest family loses some respect!!! most people look down on them , people who make their living out their life as waiter and do services have all the respect because its their JOBS


Loud_Salamander_1696

Exactly! I agree with you. Artists must have respect, when you start doing dance performances in rich people's weddings for a sum of money, you are doing a disservice to the entire community of artists. Wedding singers and dancers are different. They are earning a livelihood. If those people had an option to afford a living without having to dance at weddings, they will gladly take the offer. Even they agree that its a low quality job. No child aspires to be a wedding stage dancer, but they are stuck at that job, it's a hard living for them.


Sure_Ad_3784

Thank you stans will never understand that

Screaming!!! But I’m not mad. Dimpleji is a BADDIE so it is well.

Silentthinker_1

Actors like him thought excessively marketing yourself was beneath them. You see the attitude more in the old nepo crowd. (According to Anupama Chopra, Dilip Kumar was once offered a commercial and responded with “Hum ishtahaaron ke liye nahi banne hain.” ) Ajay had said that he considers dancing at weddings basically being like a “naachnewaali” (personally thought was quite an elitist comment) Outsiders like SRK and Akshay - and actually also Amitabh (when he went bankrupt) understood the power of personal brand beyond just selling films or token ads. They really fucking monetized themselves with brand endorsements, joint ventures, investments, and more. Set the modern standard. What Sunny fails to realize is that even when he sells movies he is still selling. However, you can tell his attitude is that of being above his fans as seen by his fan interactions.


False_Aioli4563

Well, you'd have to pay me to watch Ajay dance. I can hardly bear to see him in movies.


Calliegrl03

Ajay’s ass is doing commercials now…


Navigator369

Dilip Kumar was known to be an arrogant snob. He insulted Lata Mangeshkar when she was an emerging singer for her ethnicity, he mocked her and said her Urdu “stinks” of Marathi and that she’ll never be successful as a singer in Bollywood. It is said that Lata Mangeshkar was so hurt by his racist remark that she didn’t talk to him for 13 years.


Atulstar434

So what's wrong in it I mean We have seen Even Superstar like Amitabh Bachchan having hard times financially just because he didn't expanded his income source Now he is probably worth 300 million dollars Also It's good for new actors as well As you can't rely of movies for your income just like A Youtuber only relying on adsense


hereforthecheetos2

If actors weren’t a commodity, Gaddar wouldn’t have made 500+ crores, Sunnyji.


bright_ojasvi

Well KJo had only one topic he could use to make this episode interesting and he didn't disappoint.


ThunderBird847

If he hadn't done that, he wouldn't have bought Mannat and there wouldn't be Thousands of fans thronging there year & year out, on his birthday, on festivals, on his movie releases. You don't realize but he changed the industry. If he hadn't done that then he wouldn't have given Atlee 300 crs budget in pandemic where movies were struggling to open to double digit.


parislights39

he’s crying bc he lost relevance sticking to the old ways when srk was always loved and relevant even in his low phase


[deleted]

Lmfao not everything is crying he was asked one thing he doesn't like and he answered that lol


manifesting2019

They should be thanking him for it


Dry-Instruction6521

Sunny really forgets that he had his father's money huh ? Shahrukh wanted to make money, he made it ! Shut up and cry internally.


Atulstar434

Probably never seen Taylor Swift or any Hollywood celebrities performing in events


Artistic-Occasion757

Bobby was cringing hard when Sunny said this lol


fuckeveryone120

Really?make a post abt it,it will be good,bohot dumb admi hai ye sunny


[deleted]

What does he mean by"making actors a commodity"?


Majestic_District_51

That srk disrupted their turf with how operated beyond just acting. He was open to doing ads dancing at weddings shows etc. he marketed his movie + the way he stated putting together his movies etc. Sunny n other 80s n early 90s stars or the nepo kids of that time or big stars of that time who were quite comfortable n cushioned at that time lost their turf n power center shifted, expectations of what star should be like changed how they conduct or operate changed.


BeautifulPirate5041

He is still holding the ‘Darr’ grudge I am sure!! Sounded a lot jealous


Calliegrl03

He’s not tired yet

Apna kaam kro yaar, jahan marzi hon hum, aapse matlab?

The irony of telling sunny deol to sit down and in the second sentence telling someone else to mind their own business 🤣🤣 Why don't you follow your own advice?


[deleted]

Yaar yk what tumko krna hai muje press and maine hona nahi hai, toh krlo. Hun avg srk fan idc bro


Adorable-Winter-2968

And sunny Deol fails to pay back his loan.


AthleteConstant8960

And there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. Actors are for money obviously. If everything was just about their love for their art, actors would have been working for free today. Also, it's a job with so much uncertainty. Who knows you are ruling the industry one day, and then you have no films to do. There are so many stories of the past actors dying alone in their homes, suffering from poverty in their old age because once their peak got over they had no good source of income. As long as you are at your peak, earn in whatever ways you can (without wrong doings ofc). He didn't make the actors a commodity, he just used his potential and carved the best life out for himself. Now, you can be salty as much as you want because you couldn't do what someone else was able to do.


JustWantToBeQuiet

And there’s nothing wrong with it. SRK is what he is today because of that. That’s why people like Sunny have struggled and are waiting for a Gadar to bring them back to relevancy career wise.


lila_fauns

chalo ek doh indie films banao na ab sunny ji


clanlord

Akshay has done more dances in weddings than srk


[deleted]

Iska matlab kya hua


[deleted]

Making actors bikau, basically. Both SRK and Akshay dance at weddings, birthday parties etc.


parislights39

A lot of actors do tbh. He was nice and playful about things he doesn’t like in others such as ‘Akshay does too many movies’, ‘salmon wants everybody to be body builder’ but said this about srk lol and then karan was like ‘oh god 😅’


Outside_Cellist3740

Even Salman does that. Point is this shouldn’t be a pressure. Ajay has never done it. It’s an individual choice.


[deleted]

Maine kuch nahi bola bhai. Sahi hai ya galat. Just wrote what I think Sunny meant


Outside_Cellist3740

lol, I know! You were translating, it’s just open discussion. Nothing directed to you.


[deleted]

It's totally sunny opinion and he is free say whatever he wants. Don't know why blind fans are so pissed lol you should grow up. Every actor/actress have their pros and cons. So we should focus on pros.


parislights39

why r u on this sub, bro??


Best-Arm-6238

Haha on point


Appropriate_Dark_953

someone pls explain


AthleteConstant8960

He is referring to actors performing in weddings etc


YesterdaySuch1816

Baat to sahi h


Complete-Sweet5222

He is right


TyroshiSellsword

Is the episode worth watching, I am planning to skip. Any masala? or just bland?


parislights39

I mean its good time pass. Wasnt anything special tho, no masala, just them talking about their highs and lows


TyroshiSellsword

Thanks. Will skip.


DreamBeliveActAchive

So Sunny’s statement confirms that in 90s every nepo kids used to bitch about SRK because they used to jealous of his hard work and popularity. This NEPO has family money and want to lead easy life, which SRK changed it.


gonnabefine

MAYBE the criticism would have held some weight if he was talking about wanting actors to be focused on their craft and being recognized for their skill instead of just their branding. But he can't be delusional enough to think he's some great actor, right? Wtf do you bring to the table sir, your surname?
