It's an undisputed fact. The top 5 actors ruling the film industry are - Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan and Hrithik Roshan.
Big break
But actor Shahid Kapoor's publicist has sent out an email to the entire media which proclaims, "Shahid Kapoor breaks into the top 5 bracket." So the big question, is: which of the aforementioned actors does the actor believe he has displaced.
The arrival
The press release by Shahid's PR machinery says, 'The actor who not too long ago spoke about how much he admired his seniors is now being hailed as one of them, at the age of just 28!' Another release from Kapoor's enthusiastic PR girl says: 'The newly tagged superstar of Bollywood, Shahid Kapoor has arrived.'
In the same email it has been expressed that, "Shahid is rather shy about the 'superstar' tag that he has been given since Kaminey's success" Given by WHOM? would be a good question. While there are no doubts that Shasha is a fabulous actor and a star in his own right, this is the first time in the history of Hindi cinema that an actor (through his publicist) has declared himself a superstar.
Shahid's performance in Kaminey may have got him rave reviews but self-proclamation makes the actor appear desperate. Shahid is definitely in the top ten male actors in the country. He is in the esteemed company of Ajay Devgan, Saif Ali Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan. If's that's acceptable to Kapoor.
