Amitabh is to be blames for mediocrity???? LOL.
Some people and their bitterness towards Amitabh is really funny. Given he is a pervert, still to undermine his acting is silly.
He is still better actor than all the Khans, Kapoors and Singhs of today.

its not about acting. its about changing how industry was working in 70s. he could have contributed to the cinema. he could have backed better scripts. he didn't. all formula films. i like him as an actor when he was not superstar like saudagar, anand , later career manzil. after 1977 he was just amitabh. all formula flicks. now unwatchable. shashi ji produced memorable art cinema by booking losses. isn't it. 😭

Why to pick on Khanna?? Why not mention Shammi Kapoor and Rajendra Kumar?? Have you ever seen how third class Kapoor movies are? and since when Indians care about quality?? Not only movies but everyday thing in India has lowest quality. Even the videshi companies make low standard product specially for India. Deal with it, you were born in that system. manage it like all other Indians...

I wouldn't say Rajesh Khanna introduced mediocrity, he exemplified it... Mediocrity entered with Dharmendra, Jeetendra, Devanand ( to an extent)..It was a phase- from a socialist, social mode, it switched to escapist... The success of Manmohan desai, Prakash Mehra, J.P. Dutta, Shakti Samanta pushed back the talented lot such as Nihalani, Benegal, Mukherjee.. & Mediocrity became the king

commercial potboilers. hero thrashing villan and uske aadmi. saving heroine. maa either blind, baap ki maut ka badla. 6-7 songs. thats it. actors were so busy that they didn't even remember their films, characters and stories. they just wear costume. spoke dialogues thats it.

But it's a dumb opinion to have that one can't question an actor acting skill
