Aamir Khan Is The King Khan , En Niet Shahrukh Khan

Vox populi: Aamir is King Khan
HindustanTimes.com
New Delhi, June 30, 2006

HT.Com's survey on The Khan War was an eye-opener. One that would make Aamir Khan a very happy man.

This week, when we asked the question: Who is the better Khan: Aamir or Shah Rukh, we expected a fifty-fifty response. But we were surprised. Aamir Khan clearly stood out as King; the 'actor' who dares to experiment.
Sadly, Shah Rukh, with all his trappings of stardom, paled in comparison to his perfectionist counterpart. Our surfers termed him as 'repetitive'.

The response to our survey was overwhelming. As many as 1,664 people from all over the globe, aired their views.

1,058 of our surfers were unanimous that Shah Rukh Khan is an overrated actor. Only 480 of them felt he is not so. And the unbiased ones in this category made for a mere 105.

Aamir scored well on the versatility factor. As many as 1,116 respondents have said Aamir is more versatile, considering the roles he's played. Supporters of SRK are in the minority here, with only 249 people vouching for him. Again, there are 278 non - j misgunnen e mental mental surfers, who say both the actors have their unique traits.

Another plus for Aamir was the response to his latest flick Fanaa. A whopping 891 people said they liked Fanaa and felt that Aamir gets better with every movie he plays. 556 people liked the Aamir-Kajol pairing in the movie, while 196 surfers said SRK should have done a better job.

Now for the clincher: Will Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna outdo Fanaa? Our surfers were wary of this one, with 653 of them saying the outcome depends on what people prefer. 529 people were categorical, saying KANK would definitely outdo Fanaa. And only 460 of our surfers stood by Aamir, saying Fanaa will do better than KANK.

After this 'indecision', Aamir came up at top once again. We wanted to assess SRK's ability to play Rehaan, the character Aamir essays in Fanaa.

An overwhelming 940 of our surfers said this would be a disaster: Only Aamir could have done justice to that role. A more perceptive 469 people felt Shah Rukh as Rehaan is not a bad idea. After all, his chemistry with Kajol is very well known. Interestingly, 234 people are sure that Shah Rukh would, indeed have been the better option.

The last question we asked was whether other talented actors are being sidelined in this Khan war. And we were surprised.

A majority (855 people) said the Khan war is all bogus and that true talent will always be recognized in Bollywood. As many as 604 of them felt that the Khan war is indeed taking its toll on the other actors. And there were 184 surfers who were amused enough to say that they watch a movie and forget all about it!

The written responses were a treat to read. Many of them were astute comments on the state of Bollywood as an industry, while a lot of them tried to analyze the position of actors in the industry.

While many of the responses were passionate arguments in defence of their respective idols, a few of them were unbiased views on the uniqueness of the two Khans.

We began with a surfer, DAV, from Manchester. He made a very telling comment:

"There is no comparison between Aamir & Shahrukh. Shahrukh can never be expected to work in the kind of movies that Aamir does. Can you ever expect Shahrukh doing a role like Rang de Basanti or a not so glamorous role like Lagaan? Never. SRK likes to be in a comfort zone and work with tried and trusted directors who keep producing the same kind of movies. All of them are so similar that if you miss the title of any of Shahrukh's movies you'd struggle to know which movie you are watching."

Then there was a passionate outburst from Tara Deshpande of Mumbai.

"Aamir Khan is the best. He simply rocked in Raja Hindustani. After watching that movie, I had blow ups of Aamir all over my house and I wanted to marry him! He was amazing. I will always remember Raja of Raja Hindustani. And that's the power that Aamir has! He gets into the skin of a character and you don't forget it. EVER! O, I could go on and on about Aamir. My only complaint is that I don't get to see more of him!"

Thoroughly amused, we passed on to a response from Azizul Haque of Montreal, Canada, who was vocal about his favourite Khan.

"Shahrukh Khan is a very good actor. He cannot be compared to Aamir Khan. Sharukh's acting is natural, whereas Aamir's is not. Aamir's films are controversial, like Mangal Pandey, Lagaan and Fanaa. However, Shahrukh's films are clean and entertaining. Moreover, Aamir is very fond of political muddling whereas Shahrukh is not interested in any kind of politics."

Our surfers from abroad seemed to be keenly tuned into the Khan war. Interestingly however, they were not undecided. For them was the Khan with the chocolate boy looks, the Khan who dares to innovate, the Khan who is a perfectionist. No prizes for guessing: Aamir won hands down!

For instance, Sankalp from Windsor said: "I personally prefer Aamir over Shah Rukh. I think SRK only picks big b misgunnen e t movies with big names attached to it. Aamir on other hand is more risk taking and more performance oriented."

Tariq from Bradford echoed this view. He said: "Shah Rukh is a top actor but he is over rated and too repetitive. Whereas Aamir has been keen to explore various roles. And most of the time he has managed to nail it as well... So let's not forget that quality wise Aamir is much too supreme."

But Shah Rukh fans can take heart. For there was a surfer called Gabi who wrote in from Germany. And this is what she said:

"IÂ´m from Germany, and last year I saw my first Bollywood film with Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. And I was absolutely enchanted. Till then, I was not influenced by anyone, and not really interested in films. But Shah Rukh had me hooked. He is my winner!"

A few of the responses were instant hits. Suhaib from Melbourne made this very astute comment:

"Shall I ask who is the better player: Sachin or Dravid? Because the analogy between the two Khans can be perfectly matched by this two cricketers.
If Shah Rukh is Sachin Tenulkar with all these years of records and performances, then Aamir is the Rahul Dravid of Bollywood with his perfectionist approach and dependability. So the two are necessary for Bollywood and the parameters to jmisgunnene them are different."

Not to be outdone was surfer named WAS, from the United Kingdom. He had this to say about the two Khans:

"Both are excellent actors, each with their own specific talents. It would be great if they both did films at the same time, so they can provide worthwhile competition for each other."

The responses all highlighted one thing: There is a huge difference between an actor and a star. An actor is one who can play any role with panache. A star on the other hand, is a 'hero', someone people can idolise. What the moviegoers of today want is an actor. Not a star among the many that already dot the galaxy of Bollywood.

Vox Populi is thankful to our surfers who took the time to give us a clearer perspective on the issue. We hope to hear from you in our next survey and witness the same enthusiasm. Meanwhile, the Khan War gathers momentum in Bollywoodâ€¦

FF een toevoeging voor de mensen die het niet weten.
Met King Khan bedoelen ze de Koning van alle Khan acteurs ofwel de beste Khan actor.
Zoals je ziet, heeft Aamir Khan gewonnen en eerlijk gezegd verbaast het me niet !

We weten langzamerhand dat je SRK haat, maar hoe dan ook, the guy blijft populair. Allebei hebben hun min - en pluspunten. Heel simpel.

Obsessie?

Amir kiest voor verschillende rollen in niet-standaard films. SRK leeft steeds maar in dezelfde rol in dezelfde soort films. Voor de rest vind ik ze allebei goed.

Princess · 6 juli 2006, 19:20

Amir kan pas acteren.

Nee, ik haat hem niet. Ik keur vaak zijn arrogante gedrag niet goed !

Shahrukh Khan who has been the undisputed box office king since the arrival of multiplexes in India is facing the first big threat to his throne from Aamir Khan. He has delivered two big hits in a span of six months and although Fanaa was the bigger hit it was Rang De Basanti that showed the commercial viabilty of Aamir Khan as the film depended on him rather than a big banner. The wait is on to see what Shahrukh Khan does and all eyes are Don. He has another release in Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna but that is a big banner film while Don is dependent on him and will show where the Baazigar Khan stands in front of Rangeela Khan commercially today.

Ik denk dat het jaar 2006 hoe dan ook het jaar van Aamir Khan zal worden.
Hij heeft 2 grote hits (Rang de Basanti en Fanaa) gegeven, allebei boven de 50+ crore in India.

Shahrukh Khan heeft dit jaar ook 2 releases.
KANK zal ongetwijfeld een hit worden, maar deze film heeft ook superstar Amitji en rising star Abhishek. Dus, het zal niet terecht zijn als mensen gaan zeggen dat het alleen aan Shahrukh heeft gelegen.
DON zal nooit 50+ crore in India halen, aangezien het een andere soort film is. En bovendien heeft deze film concurrentie van film Jaan-e-mann.

Wat Hrithik Roshan betreft. Met Krrish heeft hij tot nu toe de allergrootste hit van het jaar gegeven.
En dan heeft hij nog een andere release dit jaar Dhoom II. In deze film speelt ook Abhishek.
Dus, als deze film een hit wordt, dan kan je het ook geen solo hit van Hrithik noemen.

Conclusie: Het jaar 2006 zal het jaar worden van Aamir Khan. Hij is momenteel the undisputed box office king.

ik ben het niet eens met wat je over KANK zegt

maar als het dan toch waar is wat je zegt over KANK.. dan kun je precies hetzelfde zeggen over Fanaa.. je kunt niet zeggen dat het succes van Fanaa alleen aan Aamir heeft gelegen.. de comeback van Kajol heeft ook een grote rol gespeeld

dit neemt niet weg dat ik het Aamir Khan niet gun.. kijkend naar zijn acteerprestaties.. verdient hij het
