New Delhi: Filmmaker Karan Johar has made the statement of the year. And it resonates. For once, one doesn’t disagree with him. He recently said he doesn’t think any actor from today’s generation will ever be able to enjoy the kind of stardom Shah Rukh Khan or Amitabh Bachchan has. Karan added that this generation may have “the most brilliant artistes” but lack the aura and magic that Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has.
“The magnetism, the aura, the mystery, I don’t think this generation has it,” Karan told Film Companion. “When I was at a party, and Mr Amitabh Bachchan, Mr Dilip Kumar walked in, Mr Shah Rukh Khan walked in, there were heads turning everywhere, I have seen it. That aura, everybody feeling their presence, that was power, that was stardom. That was glory.”
The reason why it’s not possible for today’s actors to gain that kind of stardom is that they are easily accessible and there’s no mystery around any celebrity anymore, Karan feels.
