I think this is an answer to my post, so I'll try to reply to the bold parts:

1) "srk delivers"... What does that mean, exactly? What do you want him to "deliver"?(or again only a catchphrase you like to use?
2) "satisfying fans"...well, you may have noticed that many of his "fans" got unsatisfied, right?
3) "bad films" ...disliking SRK's choice is a personal thing, not the lable of the movie's quality. In y o u r opinion (and that of others) it is a "bad" movie (already before he made it !)
4) last paragraph: Although I like movies like Andhadhun (and Ittefaq etc.) very much, I would not compare it to movies like Fan, JHMS or Zero (apart from it being another genre). And no need to get sarcastic (if it was meant this way) because I didn't write about symbolic etc.
In addition, I would not like to limit my take about "movie-watching" to SRK's movies.

Delivers mean he should make a film that's truly good.at least audience n critics in majority feels so. A movie that is enjoyable to watch not like jhms which I literally felt like was a waste of time n money.

I said satisfying fans cz I saw posts saying how his non fans r criticising him n that's wrong. I think anyone can criticise an actor not just his fans .Also a fan is much less likely to dislike a film of his fav ,whil w neutral viewer would not be biased while critiquing it.

His recent films r bad I'm, that's my opinion. Theyre really not enjoyable or meaningful or entertaining. He has to take at least some responsibility for that cz he obviously signs the films after hearing the script?

I didn't act sarcastic. I genuinely feel it's unfair to blame audience bcz his films r not something groundbreaking artsy or abstract. So audience can understand it .noth not he has done recently is that complicated. None of his films had any complicated plot or open ending or themese too niche . They're very simple and most of the times the problem is not that audience doesn't understand the plot,they just find the plot half baked n stupid

How is kiss between two consenting adults equal to something traumatic like rape😕skinshow kissing etc should be there if plot demands it not just to titillate tharki guys,like item songs do.

Well, the basic principle is, any erotic which excites the human hormones, erodes brain neurons, gives an electrifying signal runs in human body veins,.. ( no one is exception,. Male and female both experiences this phenomenon their own way ) is considered ashleel, brain and body torture, and unwanted bodily harassment for viewers,.. ... could it be fondling, passionate lusty hugs, rapes, direct close camera french kissings, skin exposures by bikini and cabarets, latke-matke-zhatke of bodily curves, waists, breasts, bums in an erotic way,.. etc,... or any such acts,.. They are more or less equally doing the same job,... rotting your brain neurons, and especially for a below 16, underage kids, watching such, their brain even reacts and erodes vert fast and responses hormones and veins-signaling lot faster due to extreme sensitivity,..

But again, almost 50+% movie go-ers or viewing audience are into this factor for going to watch a movie and cares little about story, the characters , acting of the characters, good message convey and such,..

I have observed the audience in theater for decades, be it SSS movie / Ram teri ganga maili, Bhumika, Akrosh, Sidhdharth, or any,... as soon as the erotic plays on theater screen, the whole theater is all-of- a sudden in a in pin-drop silence, you can hear even he noise of a needle, that's how it affects and catches the brain neurons,...

I guess, dirty lust factor is both in French kissing and item songs,... depends on how it is portrayed/ zoom, camera angle , close-captioned, filter, direct/in-direct showing and many other factors, but they both do the same job,...

Time has changed,... curse words, french-lip-locking, has gone quite common in almost every movies, TV serials, and also loads of po*n-world all open for anyone to access for,.. ! Those after-marriage suhagraat funny love-romance ( jeetu ji with Mausami , or Rameshwari,.. in aasha, sawrg-narak and Pyasa sawan and almost all old movies ) and pallu-hataaving scenes @ Suhag-raat have ended, rapes like in Roti kapda aur makaan and Insaaf ka taraju have ended,... Consented, passionate French-styled, mouth-to-mouth and breath-to-breath love-making scenes and filtered silver screen Item songs portraying lights, half-nude dresses colors and curves and body-fitness exposures showmanship have increased,.. ( Noora's Dibar Dilbar is running on top,... at present.. )

Gone R' the days, Once upon a time, when Nutan wore first time a bikini / swimsuit in Hindi cinema and that had almost shook the ground,... Or, Sunny paaji force-fitted that lipped kiss in Betaab on Amrita , and ppl saw the movie thrice only for that scene,... ! Today there's no count of which scene where and how and who performed,... ! Each movie is filled with filth of lip-locks and gaalis,.. Wait and watch, da Days R not that far,.. that,.. Deeps and Piggs will also pose their bare Nips in Hollywood films soon, just like other Hollywood actresses,... Time has changed,. Generation has changed,... Everyone just wants to "jee-leving" da Life !

Yeh hai waqt ka iishaara,... Rock On,...Zindagi milegi naa Doobaara ! - is da only motto in this generations' mind !

I think, SRK was lucky also at somewhere for sure,..,.. that unlike, Kaka and Big B who had to do loads of fight sequences in each and every of their movies,... doing disoom-sisoom somewhere with Prem chopra, Shetty, Man mohan, Ranjeet, Shakti kapoor, Amrish puri, Ajeet, K N singh, Punit issar, Amzad khan, and who not,.. and had to learn so many fight master arts, techs, sequences, loads of rehearses, Big B even had even injured himself next to death,... doing such scenes,..etc,..

But in case of SRK, ... Koyla, and very few such movies apart,.. most of the chunk he got musical, geet-sangeet, family life, Shaadi, love-hate with no villain in the movies, sorta movies having no villain in it and hence, he saved the entire hard-work needed in that department,...

Results are: diverging opinions.
Mostly .
  • . the script choice and roles are criticised and there's a commomn theme that SRK movies carry a lot of expectation for quality..
  • There seems to be a lot of goodwill for SRK even amongst non fans.. which is a great positive.. it means people are ready to go watch a movie if there's good WOM and the stories make sense and have a general appeal - or they show SRK back to his good acting phase.

  • There's debate over which types of roles are best suited to move forward.

and others did some amazing summations..
(apologies to those that did wonderful summations and whom I forgot to mention).
  • The romantic role is something most are warning against. Many think SRK would suit in thrillers, darn character and others(see sherlockthor's list)

Of course the casual (admirer)fan perspective is best, IMO, because casual SRK likers don't see all aspects with (stan) fan - tinted glasses and can, if they find the right place to express, put forward some very insightful points. The majority of those posting as not necessarily or primarily SRK fans have been in general complimentary of his skills but critical of his movie choices. Or of presumed director-actor rapports.. or possibly meddling in scenes... but there was not a lot of negativity (more ...frustration towards end product).
There were mainly positive responses- and bar one troll and an overprotective fan- the discussion was enlightening for people that haven't looked at SRK's filmography in detail or with a critical but constructive thinking.
Hopefully I can write up a proper piece later - on what I think have been the most common opinions with regards to the future.
It also seems there are a lot of people that wouldn't mind seeing a SRK movie even now, if the movie has a good story- with all the good/bad things that have happened over the last 5 years, that would indicate SRK 's stardom is still strong and he cans till command a huge succes..

People just want a good story told well.. If that's achieved, the BO will follow.



In case you've missed it amongst all the comments- here is some sort of summary.
**Note**: Himalaya10's observations were also very informative and helpful.. He helped move the discussion along when I lacked the knowledge necessary to debate certain points.

Thank you to everyone that has been kind enough to spend time and share their views.

I have my own vision, visualization angle, and observation for almost all stars, ( few points may sound true,. few may sound hard to jive with.. ) [ btw,.. I am male and it's said clearly in my Profile, unlike few others do ,... and my age is still little lower than 3 khan's average age,.. hence, have seen zamaana of Dilip, Shammi, RajK. Kaka, Big B, SRK, and all ] )

This forum is rather too much on that side,...into their own loves ones [ Oh my God,..Oh my Gawd,.. My Varun,.. My Sidharth,.. My aadi,.. How handsome ! ,... Vaari jaavun,... Balihaari jaavun,... Balaayiyaan lun,...and that sort of,... too much lovey-dovey peddling / protection.. etc ] . and there remains a continuous battle to hype their's loved ones,... demeaning others and stay bias and prejudiced on certain guy/gal and peddle yours and such,...

i try to totally refrain from that and would mention where the Credits are due,.. and will expose debits/minus sides too,... both,... !! I am no one's fan or enemy,.. I write what I see,... No1 is paying me to bash or peddle,.. :)

Again, every1 is entitled to present one's own views n' opinions,...n',... So am I !
Some sense,.. some non-sense,.. just tolerate it !
Jo achha lage use apna lo,... Jo bura lage, use chhod do ! Happy Debating,..:)
