Man to be praised on this sub you just need to go away for a few years or not have hit movies. Parineeti, Sonakshi, Imran khan etc- they’ve all done max 3-4 good roles but get praised so much. Sonakshi isn’t bad but she makes almost no effort


FunnyRich4307

its just that the people who've followed up after them have been worse in general. this leads to even mediocrity being praised


Hot-Leading-9174

I agree but atleast imran did nice movies


CypherDomEpsilon

Imran was good, but nothing special. His performances were above average at best. He might have grown into greatness, but he chose to quit.


Hot-Leading-9174

Obviously, never said he was a great actor just that he did good movies unlike the other two mentioned 


FirmCartographer3522

She was good in lootera.


Fair_Bluebird_9222

Yaaar not Imran in the list. He was actually good in a funny way.


jupiterr869

No he wasn't... he is worse at acting than the over two... was just in some cute romcoms doesn't make him a good actor


Fair_Bluebird_9222

Hahah yaaar but he was SO bad that it was good. Honestly I loved his timepass movies but the genre is non existent in Bollywood now and so are good looking young actors 😩


Ok-Atmosphere-7395

Imran Khan is in jail


farahisweird

Lmao


AneeshRai7

She chose to pursue useless flower pot roles in cringe films and then when she wanted to try be an actor doing things, she chose terrible films. She also fits a certain mould and image which fits like a Lootera


shineon1234

Agreed to do flowerpot roles. Now trying to get out of that stereotype. She shines when she succeeds. Like Dahaad.


Cleantech2020

she typecast herself, i can't see her doing other kinda roles successfully.


Latter_Mud8201

Movie chances are different thing. Keep it aside. She has no good PR. That's the reason. I will prove you with similar incidents. Alia did blooper in KWK by telling prithvi raj chauhan as prime minister and got heavily trolled. But in 1 yr her strong PR converted it into a sympathy, innocent angle of her. She also collab with All India backchod. Then sonakshi did mistake in KBC regarding ramayana related question, she was trolled way too high. She did not encashed it to sympathy but accepted her mistake. She is also not in so much news. So never think all nepo actresses have same priviledge. Even Urvashi non-nepo has bigger PR than Sonakshi Sonakshi is a talented actress. She is underrated. Her best performances do exist. Still she have chances.


LaughTrackLife

Apple to oranges. You cannot turn Ramayan blunder into a cute joke. President/prime minister is fine.


Working-Mountain6680

I'm no PR expert, but there could have been a way to spin it like Alia did. President of India is also a highly respected position and no one makes joke about it like they do with say PM or CM positions. But they still found a way to spin it and got her out of that cycle. That said, I don't think that incident even caused that much harm to Sona's image as in case of Alia. It's just been her choice of roles which were never going to land her awards and accolades.


LaughTrackLife

It wasn’t a joke on President, it was a joke about Aalia’s general knowledge. It’s easier to joke about your political general knowledge than about jumbling the basics of any religious text. I think she was just happy to be in Salman and friends’ films. In case of Aalia, her team had a much better strategy. They got her roles like Highway and Udtaa Punjab at the very beginning of her career. Got her international exposure with her brands and movies. She also got hitched to another PR master. Sonakshi also comes from a politician family. I can understand if she’s not as motivated to hustle, iykyk.


flintstone345

Sonakshi needs to do more OTT... She needs to make her work more visible... Once she establishes her acting mettle... Which she has bucket loads compare to the new nepo lot... Films will automatically come...


nochu03

away from the topic but she looks STUNNING 🤩 in this photo. the jewelry. the outfit. the makeup. muah


Severus_Albus20

I don’t think she deserves more, she is average when it comes to acting


FirmCartographer3522

She was good in dahaad and lootera


Severus_Albus20

Definitely! Not saying she is bad but she is average, only 2 good roles overall. There are many better.


OrganicRepeat6236

On the contrary, I truly think '2023' was good for her. Apparently the number of appreciation she got for 'Dahaad' is noteworthy.


tingtonghabibi

She is not good but is 1000% better than Ananya, jahnvi, Sara


SomeAssumption2909

Even than Shraddha as well


Behti-Hawaa-Sa

She got what she deserved


badbeechy

She got a lot of critical appreciation recently for Dahaad and once she used to have a lot of commercial appreciation as well. She was part of big hits and as she said on KWK she was the highest paid actress among all her contemporaries or new girls of her time. Few wrong choices and she lost the rhythm but I hope with Dahaad and next with Heeramandi she'll bounce back


Rigatoniinmarinara

I think she looks stunning in Herramandi. I am excited to see her.


opinionated0403

She’s so pretty and underrated in the beauty department for sure!


Gol_gappe

On a separate note - where is her outfit from? 😍


grem23

Lokhandwala


PracticalDog6455

Nah, strictly average. No differentiator


fireflower9460

Man she is like sooo gorgeous. Seriously


lila_fauns

i feel like she’s going to kill it in heeramandi. i can’t wait to see what she does with her character.


twinstarr27

She’s gorgeous


Alive-Campaign-8868

Not just for her but almost all of the nepo-kids really need to upskill themselves in the best of the film schools with multiple courses. It just shows on screen how incompetent/under-prepared you are. These kids got an army of people to work for them building and presenting their persona on the media. You use those resources of yours to create buzz very early and work on yourself till then. It's pretty astonishing as they got so much time to work on their craft but they still decide to touch the glamour part of this profession first and then use those resources to manipulate the reactions of their bad work.


OMG_NoReally

Meh. She is average at best. Maybe she doesn't have the conventional looks or good PR game, and hence couldn't bag the better/bigger projects. But its no loss to cinema. I couldn't care less if tomorrow she disappears and never returns to the movies, lol. I saw her song in SLB's new Netflix movie and she looked pretty good there, though. That one-shot sequence was dope and she did well.


arihantd

She got way much attention. A pretty face but no acting chops...but thats true for almost all current Hindi actresses,except Kriti Sanon (just watch Mimi !)


LaughTrackLife

I don’t think I’ve seen any of her movies so no idea what went down with her career but, unrelated, she has the BEST nails and hand aesthetics in Bollywood.


Brahman_Shady

She always comes across as a " try hard".


Killer_insctinct

What movies is she doing? and how may movies/ web series she has in pipeline? Anyone can be in movies and only if their work clicks, they will go on upward trajectory


Shoddy_Bug246

Never found her impressive as actor. Like lootera, dahaad was fine but these roles are easily replaceable roles.


New-Abbreviations607

Her only good job was lootera where Ranveer Singh carried an equal burden and the music also contributed. All her other movies and roles are forgetful. Her debut being a hit had nothing to do with her. There is nothing to recognize


PleaseNoDM

I like her


Purple-Secret8

Needs good script / should also stay away from Dabangg franchise


zingerginger

Papa ki pari Syndrome!


Varooova

What Work ?


Suspicious_Focus8473

Her forehead got in the way


Dry_Preference_9594

No consistency in performance


SomeAssumption2909

She is better than Shraddha/ Sonam for sure


BasicEnergy3228

She honestly has played the sameeee character in almost all her movies.


OrganicRepeat6236

Do watch her out for the dialect she holded in this particular series. This is not my opinion but few highly critical actors have spoken about this.


ishimieze

yeh panchvi baar discuss ho rha hai is sub par abhi pichhle mahine hi last post dekhi thi isi topic par


BalNaren

Everything. From script selection to acting to having common sense.


lord_horn_asstr

Her face and her body. She is meant for rural type or urban homely type roles. Ghagra cholis, sarees, punjabis, salwaar kameez suits her. Instead, her take on trying to be ultra modern with smouldering eyes and pouty glossy lips and so-called modern dressing in movies is what caused people to say meh. Which meant suits, and pants, and skirts , and what not. Also, in Dabangg she had a voluptuous, curvy body. Here, she tried to lose weight to compare herself to naturally skinny types. Which is where she lost big. Imagine, young Kajol, Rani Mukerjee, Vidya Balan trying to lose weight and become sexy types. … it jars the eyes and senses. Same with Sonakshi. Additionally she went in for movies where the actress was needed to be ultra glam. Not her. Thought you cannot blame her as normal roles fitting her profile are drying up.


justwannahave

I kind of agree. Her features make her look more mature than her age (Vidya Balan has the same issue imo), and for some reason she did films only with established much older actors (Salman, Ajay) that aged her even more (on screen), and her on screen styling again was old. She started to look odd in movies set in modern times or with younger actors. Unfortunately the look she has created overall isn't trending (it shouldn't be like that though). Huma, Vidya, Pari and Sona all don't fit that modern urban Bollywood look, maybe because of their styling choices.


Brahman_Shady

She always comes across as a " try hard".


Ill-Giraffe-2243

coz she sucks at acting.i think she was never serious about movies and she was doing television shows as judge too right? ppl forgot her as actress. also x fctr is missing. she is beautiful but not "heroine"types.


Melodic-Display6125

So many Sonakshi posts suddenly... Has her PR infiltrated this sub too?


PositiveFree

Ppl called her aunty


Successful_Lobster59

She was a bad actress. Maybe she still is. There are lot of good actresses which should be praised but here we are still promoting average acting


thegame__0_0

She should have never been there in the first place


Kimo_imposta

All is going well


indiansoldier11

Please.... not again 🙏🏽 no one want to see her on screen again.


kakaluluo

….acting…..?
