His inability to moderate in his indulgences is something that should not be passively accepted or glossed over when it's quite a major vice that seems to connect back to all branches of his life. I've never understood how he was deemed attractive. Even in his "chocolate hero" days in Saawariya, I didn't get the appeal and I certainly don't get it now. I do think that his fair skin gives him a lot of leeway that others like Vicky wouldn't necessarily get. If he was a few shades darker, I wonder if anyone would be so quick to defend his looks or "talent."
This isn't even diving into his treatment of women. He's a cheater and hasn't ever reformed. To quote Rachel from Friends, once a cheater always a cheater. The amount of women he has used to make his way to the top is astounding. Countless people have pointed out his patterns. When you consider his debut flop in Saawariya, one has to think that his career could easily have gone the way of Sonam Kapoor's, had it not been for him leeching his way onto Deepika and making sure that in every promotion for Om Shanti Om, he was right there next to her and always picturized. I honestly believe had it not been for this, he and Sonam Kapoor would have been on the exact same level. And while Sonam has lots of undesirable personality traits, I still have more respect for her than him because while she lives in her own insular bubble, I've never seen her actively hurt anyone the way he does to keep himself on top. And in fact, even she seems more politically aware than he is.
