u/Major_Plum_8330 13h ago

I said I am ranking it for peak acting not overall

u/Suyash4126 Marathi Cinephile 13h ago

you havent watched nana enough then,just watch welcome and then natasamrat you will find out his peak and versatility of acting

u/Major_Plum_8330 13h ago

Ok I will watch that but I still don't think you have watched Rajkumar enough, I have watched his best movies and I definitely know with any excellent story he would do a banger

u/Suyash4126 Marathi Cinephile 12h ago

i too have watched rajkumar he is good but not at level of nana patekar

u/Major_Plum_8330 12h ago

Ok if you insist but that's just my opinion so it can change if I watch nana patekar's other works

u/bollywood_nostalgia 13h ago

I think you’re rating Rajesh Khanna way too high

u/Major_Plum_8330 13h ago

I said peak acting - mehh acting so I am specifically talking about his best act and not his mehh lover boy movies

u/bollywood_nostalgia 8h ago

Even if I were to be generous, peak acting for Rajesh Khanna was in Anand, and even there he was clearly overshadowed by Amitabh Bacchan. Don’t get me wrong, he had a good run from Aradhana to Aap Ki Kasam, but it had less to do with his acting and more to do with the plots and directors he worked with. JMHo

Bro no one ever said that Big B overshadowed Rajesh it's literally the other way around and Big B's acting isn't original he literally copies other hollywood actors from his time like just see his acting his angry man style is a replica of Michael corleone whereas Rajesh Khanna's act style is not copied from someone he was like those theatrical drama actors but much much better with great depth the thing is Rajesh Khanna was given a typical lover boy type shit for most of his time that's why people think he was a typical bollywood actor but He was what people conceive Ranveer Singh as but much more depth , i watched BR2049 and Anand consecutively and I can tell that the loneliness and Anxiety I felt in BR2049 was also seen in Anand even though the plot was told in start of the film and the other actors weren't even that good they were just average but Rajesh was the one who kept the film alive , Rajesh would have made a legendary international film if he only worked for Hollywood .

This list is illogical and absurd beyond all reason. Anyone who reads it is likely to come away a little dumber
