I'm ready for all the burning😈


But jokes aside, do you think she is the last female superstar? I don't see anyone reaching that level yet, and especially not Alia.


Deepika and Katrina are both the last superstars.


Discuss.

Why are you are so ready to call her a has-been when she is still actively working and making movies? She's only 34 and still has many milestones to achieve.

"After Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit, Hindi cinema has waited for a decade and a half, to finally got a female superstar in Deepika Padukone. And we're calling Deepika the only female superstar with all respect to other great actress and stars in their own right like Vidya Balan, Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra because she's the only one (like Madhuri, Sridevi, Hema Malini, Rekha and Nargis in their days) who can open both mainstream films (Padmaavat) and ones with limited appeal (Piku) to respectable numbers, and more so, can do so without the backing of big-name male stars. "

Kiara has all the tools, Ananya is flexible, Sara has passion ❤️❤️ , Alia is Alia. I won’t count anyone out at this point. Except maybe Deepika. 😆 I mean I love Kareena but I’d also count her out too. I’m equal opportunity hater of aging women 👍🏼

Hasbeen is not a status, it's an image. Has got nothing to do with age also, well not that much. Sonakshi is in her early 30s, but a has-been, Alia is not even 30 but about to be a hasbeen. Tapsee is in her mid 30s but she is NOT a has-been. Has-been matlab logon ke nazaron ke neeche gid jana. In this age of SM, there is new lease but as a different praani, it's like punar janam... pehle janam mein haathi, dusre janam mein chinti. John types got new lease but he can never become a haathi... padding wadding se zyada se zyada bhains ban sakta hai.

Sridevi was the only ever female superstar, period.


Katrina, Deepika, Madhuri, Aishwarya were number 1 of their time but never achieved the level of Sri. Sridevi was the ultimate superstar of Indian cinema.


And this "last superstar" concept is such bullshit. Every generation will have their own superstars.

The same person never tires of calling Salman Khan a superstar. Talk about double standards!
