What you said here essentially boils down to this: SRK was beaten at the box office by a nobody like DP with re: Dilwale vs. Bajirao Mastani.
The hatred Deepika attracts on this forum is unbelievable. She's no better and no worse as a person than the rest of her contemporaries. As an actress, she is below average. As a star, she is the biggest in her group, and yes, that includes the men.
Varun's October opened at 5 crores. Ranbir's Bombay Talkies opened at 3.75 crores. These would be fair comparison to a movie like Chappak even if neither dealt with a disfigured protag. Ranveer's Lootera also did only 4.5 crores on opening day, but it was a while ago, and he hasn't done an arthouse type movie recently for fair comparison. As for Kangana, let her try an arty movie first, then they can compare. As an actress, Kangana is probably the best of that lot, but as a star? Nuh-huh.
