Happy Birthday to our Greek god. Here’s a look at the 20 incredible years of him in Bollywood-

Here we talk about the protagonist in one of our best sports drama Chak De India.
Kabir Khan was a Muslim Hockey Player. It all just started and ended at him being muslim. After losing the World Cup to Pakistan (The biggest rival of India) with Kabir being he Indian captain on the penalty,he was labelled as a Muslim gaddar. Nobody for even once thought that the team has reached this far with his captaincy only. No one was bothered to ask him how he was feeling after he just missed out on his biggest achievement of life-The World Cup.
Just because he had the surname KHAN, he was the traitor. The moment when he has to leave his home where his memories lied sacred, the moment where he faces the angry eyes of his own people for something he hasn’t even done are all so much full of sorrow.
My heart breaks when Kabir sees that a mere child has hatred for him and writes gaddar outside his wall.

Kabir’s love for the country, his love for the game, and his passion for getting himself cleared by that awful label made him do the out of box thing, his rage for wanting the women’s team win got him back everything he wished for. They lifted the label, and he was a nationalist again. But will anyone be able to pay him for the hate they held upon him?
Kabir khan’s story takes us on a ride with an event of anti-muslim communalism becoming a potential starting point for communal integration.

At the start of the decade we witnessed a breath of a fresh air in bollywood when actor – Ranveer Singh debuted.

He debuted with a debutant director and Anushka Sharma who by then was a known face in the business. It was a small budgeted film but went on to become a HIT at the box office.

Ranveer’s performance was widely appreciated, he was energetic, impulsive and enthusiastic as a typical delhi guy Bittoo Sharma. He won audience and critics alike and became a known name after the success of Band Baja Baraat. He has carved a significant niche for himself in the hearts of people with his roles, his interactions with the press or fans and the unusual outfits he wears almost everywhere.

His filmography in his debut decade is quite impressive and progressive , he has done 12 films by far, from which he has 2 Blockbusters, 2 Super hits, 3 Hits, 3 Average and 2 flops in his kitty and will be soon seen in Kabir Khan’s 83. That’s a rich and rewarding journey along with the other things we see which proves he is India’s Next Superstar:
Powerhouse of Energy: The world wants to know the secret? How is he always so energetic, charged and full of enthusiasm? He always lights up the environment he is in. His fans and audiences love him whenever he dances on streets, or with fellow actors in funny videos. It’s never a dull moment when Ranveer is around and he brings the same energy and aura to his roles.

Versatility: He has always been someone who does not let anyone typecast him in some kind of genre, he has experimented in most of his films, be it a period-romance, action thriller, historical drama, an urban street guy or romantic comedies. He has played every role with 100% dedication and utmost conviction.

Acting Prowess: He is one of those actors who gets into the skin of his characters by his dedication and hardwork. He has proved his acting potential in almost all the roles he played. His game is strongest in films like Bajirao mastani, Padmaavat, Lootera,Band Baja Baraat and Gully boy.

Dancing: You need to be good in dancing if you need to stay in Bollywood for a long run, and here also Ranveer isn’t holding back, he has given various dance numbers where he aced his steps perfectly. Be it befikre or tattad tattad, his dance is well entertaining.

Keen learner: Ranveer has always proved he’s a great learner in his performances, he always studies his characters well before portraying. Marathi accent in Bajirao, Gujrati accent in Ram Leela, Sword fighting or a street rapper in Gully boy, he has learnt every skill so well.

Owns Characters: Ranveer is someone who instead of emulating anyone, creates his own piece. He doesn’t need anyone to push himself to his boundaries. He has a natural going for crazy personas, over the top performances, quirkiness, a special energy and sometimes border line overacting. He instead of going toe-to-toe by the script, transforms the character in his own way and makes it a performance only he can deliver.

Also, not everytime the Oscars will be missed champion.
Indian Actor Hrithik Roshan is popularly referred as ‘Greek God‘ by the people, but have you ever thought why do we actually call him by that name?
A lot many answers say that he is referred as Greek God just because of his good looks, curly hair and a well built physique, but if you give it a serious thought, you’ll know that many actors of Bollywood, Hollywood and across world have a very hunky and muscular body like Hrithik has and are also good looking but they aren’t known by such names.
We could have compared Hrithik with any other historical figure but “Greek God“ comes very naturally to him when we look at him. First of all, look at his face–

No, he isn’t wearing contact lenses, his peepers are really green in color which is second rarest in the world. And his face looks like as though it was chiseled by a sculptor, it’s so symmetrical.

Now look at his physique, he is so muscular yet he isn’t a buff, he isn’t too tall or stocky. He looks all the way chiseled and muscular when bare chest but as soon as he gets into a shirt, it doesn’t shows like he can’t barely fit into it, he is certainly not behemothic in appearance ( No offense to The Rock and other muscle-laden giants out there ). His abs and arms are very elegant and look like as though they are sculpted, It’s just a masterpiece. If you see a picture of Greek God, you would know what I am talking about-

Greetings to Lord Apolloš. The Greek/Roman lord of Archery, Medicine, Music, Literature, Manliness, Glory and the Sun. He is the most handsome among the Greek Gods. Look at him, Is he a man-mountain? NO. Is he an elegant masterpiece? Yeah, looks like. Most of the Greek/Roman gods were envisioned this way, Only a few behemoths were there such as Zues, Posiedon, Hades, Ares, Hercules etc, but the others were mainly like this.

The Ancient Greeks were known to have (genetically) beautiful appearances, No wonder Hrithik Roshan is called so. It’s not like not looking like him makes one an eyesore, Many people look as good without being like him but he is almost perfection. If talking in European sense- He is Perfect.
Hrithik might be called a God for his looks but his humane qualities and actions prove that he really has godly attributes. No one can be a real-life God but his good works justifies what a Human should be like. His deeds are as good as his heart. His positive energy shines bright on his face.
Also Hrithik doesn’t expect you to call him God, such a person he is.

So we will start our conversation by talking about the perfect in everything performer of our Indian Cinema- HRITHIK ROSHAN.
This man is an Indian Superstar but what his journey tells us is that he is much more and different than what a superstar we think of is.
Born in 1974, Hrithik had a really tough childhood, he was born with 6 fingers because of which he wasn’t considered normal back then by his fellows, so he used to shy away from everything. His father wasn’t successful that time so the family faced tough days financially. With time when he grew up and was very confused what he wanted to become but assisted his father in movies, he was diagnosed with Scoliosis and was asked to never perform dance and action. BOOM! He can’t become an actor now, but NO, it was not the full stop for that man was, he tried whatever he can to heal himself, and one fine day when he ran on the beach, he realised he was fine now, Afterall, God helps them who help themselves!
With that he was now ready to become an actor, his director father casted him in his venture Kaho Na Pyar Hai which went on to become an All time blockbuster! Hrithik with the debut itself became a sensation among the audience, the boy who was asked to never dance became the best dancer we ever had. When no actor wanted to admit their relationship in public at that time due to their thinking of having lesser female fans then, Hrithik married his childhood love Sussane the same year.
After the 1st movie, his further movies went down, he tried much but gained nothing and was termed as a One Movie Wonder.
But then came out Koi Mil Gaya, a story of a mentally challenged boy, here the actor in Hrithik came out, and the love was back, he got back what he deserved. Everyone applauded as he stood tall.
He then became an actor who chose unconventional roles and try out himself in different genres at a place where everyone wanted to do what they do best, he wanted to do everything.
And now after Dhoom 2, he was the man crush of everyone, boys and girls-everyone, and continues to do so till today as he earned the title of Most handsome Man of The World, Sexiest Man of The Decade and many more.
His versatility made him a different one than the others, he played a mentally challenged, an army guy, a king, an action hero, a quadriplegic, a blind man without those black specs, the boy next door, an intense guy, a bihari mathematician, which says that he can nail anything, his risk taking and experimenting nature is appreciable.
He’s the guy who always promotes positivity, despite being put into an ugly spat, he had his dignity up high, he loves and respects his family in any situation even if they aren’t much his side.
He is a complete Superstar, the one can dance like it’s poetry in motion, act any character with finnesse, and looks like a dream.
