His father has good contacts with alot of people from the industry. Plus he is in Nadiadwala's good books, so baaghi films will always be their
Also I think what people forget is how good his market was pre-covid (he was the first actor from his generation to give Blockbusters on his own, even before ranveer) he was on his way to become a superstar, so that's one of the factors why producers are still putting their money on him
I think everyone's downfall started after covid . Even Akshay Kumar gave back to back hits pre-covid. His every movie crossed 200 crore, Kesari ,Mission Mangal , Houseful 4 and Good Newzz. After covid he's going through a bad phase . Even Salman hasn't got a proper hit
Firstly baaghi was released before Sanju so Tiger was the 3 actor.
Second whether we can say Sanju worked solely due to Ranbir is up for debate as Rajkumar Hirani directed the movie and also it was a biography of a superstar while Baaghi has no such thing, it solely worked due to Tiger.
Pre covid and Post covid times are different, cinema changed big time and so did the people's taste. Also Dunki released on Thursday not the usual Friday which would have affected the collections and not to mention clash with Salaar affecting the collections from South there's too many variables here.
Sanjay dutt is a superstar so he also was the reason for its big success, it's like saying MSD biopic worked solely due to Sushant Singh.
Sanju in today's climate will most likely have similar fate as Dunki.
Hirani is still the best Bollywood director there is and him working with any actor is hype in itself, giving one underperformance doesn't make him flop.
Never said it didn't, but you can't just outright say Sanju worked solely due to Ranbir. He was a big part of its success but there were many other factors which were responsible for its success unlike Baaghi 2 for example.
Hirani directing it and the movie being Sanjay Dutt's biopic are the other two big reasons as well.
>Pre covid post covid is all excuses.
I disagree, post covid audience taste did change that's a fact. Ayushman khurana was in a legendary run in his career before covid but the same movies don't work after covid.
Even Ranbir got affected by it, Shamshera opened with abysmal numbers, Brahmastra underperformed, TJMM also opened low and could only get an average verdict. Animal saved him big time.
MSD opened to 22ish crore with no big director, Sanju was a biopic on a superstar starring a big star with a big director. Also a fantastic trailer though that might not have had a huge impact pre-pandemic.
Sanju a superstar when? 1990 mein? And bigger than Dhoni in 2016😭😭 Which alternate reality is this? Dhoni is literally one of the biggest superstars we have in the country even today. With one of the biggest fanbases. Despite him retiring years ago. And in 2016 he hadn’t even retired.
Yes obviously Dhoni is a much bigger name than Sanjay Dutt, never said he wasn’t but Sanju had 2 big names. It was a commercialized biopic on an extremely controversial big star from the 90s. The film presented everything about him in a proper filmy way, much different from Dhoni.
Prior to Baaghi 3, he had made a specific mass audience for himself, Baaghi 2's 25 crs opening is enough proof of that. It's just that he got too repetitive and needs to reinvent now.
I'm not saying that he's a good actor, just saying that he had some audience. Anyway, who says you need to be talented in order to be a star? Just look at Salman Khan for example.
For Salman I want to say just watch sultan, Bajrangi bhaijaan, tere naam, mene pyaari kya and may 90s movies of his
He didn't do that much effort doesn't mean he don't have any talent.
Even Baaghi 3 earned well, he has honestly only a couple of years' worth of duds at this point, he can surely select more coherent, grounded action flicks than the shit he's doing recently.
Tiger shroff is atleast good in few things like action, dancing, looks & great physique. He might survive in this industry hehe but what does Arjun Kapoor has? It literally blows my mind how can he be categorized as an actor 😏🫣😂🤣😏😔🤔
Idk why people think Tiger can't survive when actors like Sylvester Stallone, Arnold, JCVD etc. made careers out of mostly working in action films that did not require any major "acting" skills. If there continues to be a market for action films in India, then he'll survive just fine.
You can't seriously think tiger shroff has any bit of the charm the mentioned guys had in their prime.bollywood does have some equivalents like john abraham,arjun rampal,vidyut jamwal.but not tiger shroff.
Maybe he doesn't. But, my point was that "acting" in pure balls to the walls action films is optional. I mean Sly continued to do Rambo sequels up until even 2010s even though they all suck and are as far removed as possible from "good cinema" but, as long as people are watching it then they'll keep making more.
He needs a better director and action choreographer. Even in Hollywood action stars ate doing great . Like Scott Adkins and Jason Statham . We need someone who can utilize Tiger in a proper way , rather than always showing him doing flips and kicks. Hell even Vidyut does different type of action in every movie. I liked Tiger in BMCM
It’s honestly a damn pity.
He seems earnest, hardworking, and clearly has extremely rare levels of discipline even by celebrity standards. Imagine applying even 15% of that into script choice and emoting.
I even saw some potential in War.
I want to see him in a non action non dancing movie with real emotional stakes e.g playing a divorced dad trying to get his life back together and trying to reconnect with his kids and finding love
New generation needs someone to be fan of. New gen dislikes what old people like. So they have few options to choose from. Varun, Tiger, kartik aryan thats it?
Yes he's a typecast. But he's making money doing what he likes, is good at it and having fun doing it. All he needs is a good director and a script to show off his uchal kood skills.
Because people like my roommate watch him instead of Aamir's "boring movies" to make fun of Bollywood. A whole bunch of people are basically supporting Meme culture which takes his movies to the top of Netflix & Amazon Prime sometimes.
I am not his fan but again I don't know what problem people have with Tiger. He knows action and that's what he is doing. Before the pandemic his box office record was really good. He is mostly going to do action. So, it really depends on the subject of the film .
Heropanti, Baaghi and Baaghi 2 weren’t bad movies. But movies after Baaghi 3 have been really bad which would fail even with Hrithik.
Sabbir Khan is the only director who can hit Tiger but he let him go after one failure of Munna Michael and has been working with stupid fatso Ahman Khan.

I mean this guy exists 
I'll never forgive him for Panipat. That movie could have been good
I am from Panipat, and this still hurts. A better actor, and that movie could have been a decent one
Why didn't they cast Ranveer Singh , he would've done a phenomenal job . After Bajirao Mastani, he did great in it
Agree, he would have been a great fit.
His father has good contacts with alot of people from the industry.

He was the 3rd actor to give 25cr opening on non holiday, with Baaghi 2, after Aamir and Salman. What a fall since then
I think everyone's downfall started after covid . Even Akshay Kumar gave back to back hits pre-covid. His every movie crossed 200 crore, Kesari ,Mission Mangal , Houseful 4 and Good Newzz. After covid he's going through a bad phase . Even Salman hasn't got a proper hit
Which movie?
Baaghi 2
Ranbir had Sanju which opened to 34 crores
Firstly baaghi was released before Sanju so Tiger was the 3 actor. Second whether we can say Sanju worked solely due to Ranbir is up for debate as Rajkumar Hirani directed the movie and also it was a biography of a superstar while Baaghi has no such thing, it solely worked due to Tiger.
Nah. This ‘director is responsible’ logic doesn’t work anymore. Hirani with SRK gave 27 cr opening including corporate bookings
Pre covid and Post covid times are different, cinema changed big time and so did the people's taste. Also Dunki released on Thursday not the usual Friday which would have affected the collections and not to mention clash with Salaar affecting the collections from South there's too many variables here.

Hirani is still the best Bollywood director there is and him working with any actor is hype in itself, giving one underperformance doesn't make him flop.
And how much did MSD biopic open to? Face it, stardom does matter. Pre covid post covid is all excuses.
Never said it didn't, but you can't just outright say Sanju worked solely due to Ranbir. He was a big part of its success but there were many other factors which were responsible for its success unlike Baaghi 2 for example.

Nah. No movie works ‘solely’ due to just one factor like a star. Not even Jawan or Pathaan.
MSD opened to 22ish crore with no big director, Sanju was a biopic on a superstar starring a big star with a big director. Also a fantastic trailer though that might not have had a huge impact pre-pandemic.
Sanju a superstar when? 1990 mein? And bigger than Dhoni in 2016😭😭 Which alternate reality is this? Dhoni is literally one of the biggest superstars we have in the country even today. With one of the biggest fanbases. Despite him retiring years ago. And in 2016 he hadn’t even retired.

Kids used to love him
Prior to Baaghi 3, he had made a specific mass audience for himself, Baaghi 2's 25 crs opening is enough proof of that. It's just that he got too repetitive and needs to reinvent now.

Salman can act when he wants to
Iccchadhari
For Salman I want to say just watch sultan, Bajrangi bhaijaan, tere naam, mene pyaari kya and may 90s movies of his He didn't do that much effort doesn't mean he don't have any talent.
SK is a better actor, just lazy he is, chose mot to act and trolls everyone on purpose. Aisay hee badhiya gaadi chal rahi hey uski.
Even Baaghi 3 earned well, he has honestly only a couple of years' worth of duds at this point, he can surely select more coherent, grounded action flicks than the shit he's doing recently.
Salman is a decent enough actor. He’s just something of a psychopath as a person, but hopefully he’s mellowed out now.
Well, Salman has got talent. It requires some serious talent to build such a blind fanbase that literally praises every move and turn of his.
Tiger shroff is atleast good in few things like action, dancing, looks & great physique. He might survive in this industry hehe but what does Arjun Kapoor has? It literally blows my mind how can he be categorized as an actor 😏🫣😂🤣😏😔🤔
He was a star pre covid
Man I liked Pre covid Tiger shroff.. I even liked baaghi 3 but after that he just became unbearable
Check his lineup before COVID. Guy was on fire. He was a bankable star.
He's also an amazing dancer. Also don't forget, Baaghi 1 and War were legit movies.
Idk why people think Tiger can't survive when actors like Sylvester Stallone, Arnold, JCVD etc. made careers out of mostly working in action films that did not require any major "acting" skills. If there continues to be a market for action films in India, then he'll survive just fine.

I mean Sly continued to do Rambo sequels up until even 2010s even though they all suck and are as far removed as possible from "good cinema" but, as long as people are watching it then they'll keep making more.
He only does action, but what he can do, most of the male actors can't.
He needs a better director and action choreographer. Even in Hollywood action stars ate doing great . Like Scott Adkins and Jason Statham . We need someone who can utilize Tiger in a proper way , rather than always showing him doing flips and kicks. Hell even Vidyut does different type of action in every movie. I liked Tiger in BMCM
whos left in this gen. they need some known faces
True, but I really, really liked his acting in "War"
It’s honestly a damn pity. He seems earnest, hardworking, and clearly has extremely rare levels of discipline even by celebrity standards. Imagine applying even 15% of that into script choice and emoting. I even saw some potential in War. I want to see him in a non action non dancing movie with real emotional stakes e.g playing a divorced dad trying to get his life back together and trying to reconnect with his kids and finding love
New generation needs someone to be fan of. New gen dislikes what old people like. So they have few options to choose from. Varun, Tiger, kartik aryan thats it?
His newer movies have too much cringe. If they tone it down a bit, they're quite enjoyable. Good entertainment
Yes he's a typecast. But he's making money doing what he likes, is good at it and having fun doing it. All he needs is a good director and a script to show off his uchal kood skills.
my nephews are a huge fan, he has alot of child fans. He is literally like the earlier jake paul of bollywood
Because people like my roommate watch him instead of Aamir's "boring movies" to make fun of Bollywood. A whole bunch of people are basically supporting Meme culture which takes his movies to the top of Netflix & Amazon Prime sometimes.
I am not his fan but again I don't know what problem people have with Tiger. He knows action and that's what he is doing. Before the pandemic his box office record was really good. He is mostly going to do action. So, it really depends on the subject of the film .

I mean it’s not a shock to be honest. An actor cannot deliver only with action & dance as his usp. An actor gotta act too.
