'Salman Khan Doesn't Wanna Act, Aamir Doesn't Have A Film' Anil Kapoor's Son, Harsh Varrdhan Reacts

It seems like Bollywood has lost its magic, and the audience, who is now finding entertainment through Reels on their phone, are finding it hard to connect with the three-hour-long movies. Recently, Anil Kapoor's son, Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor, reacted on 'Bollywood is finished' and shared some shocking revelations.

Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor talked about 'Bollywood is finished'

Recently, Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor expressed his opinion on 'Bollywood is finished'. He claimed that the industry is still busy with its star-struck era, and it is time to shake it off and get back to good storytelling. He also highlighted how some projects get a green signal, which, in reality, belongs to the 1980s. 

It all started with a social media user taking to X and expressing how 'Bollywood is finished.' The user claimed that Salman Khan doesn't want to act, Aamir has no film, Akshay has a dozen films but no use, Shah Rukh Khan does a film in two years, and Ajay is playing it safe. The post can be read as:

"Bollywood is finished. Salman don’t wanna act, Aamir doesn’t have any film to act, Akshay has dozen of films but of what use, SRK does a film in 2yrs, Ajay could do big but he’s playing it safe. Ranbir Kapoor is the lone warrior from here, looks like."

Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor responded by writing that Bollywood isn't just about the stars. He expressed how it is time for producers and financiers to take a risk and invest in high-concept films for cinema and prioritise good stories. He wrote:

"Bollywood isn’t and shouldn’t be only about stars that have been there and done that and formulaic films it’s time for producers and financiers to gamble on low cost high concept films for cinemas without the usual tropes.. prioritise never before seen story-telling and keep the upfront costs low and the audience will come. Make 8-15 cr films with minimum p and an and back the makers. We made that for 20 cr it looks visually better then many films that cost 2-3 times that .. why? Because every cent went into the making of the film and not unnecessary costs. It’s 2025 and the films that get green-lit are films that belong in the 1980 s and not even the good ones."

When a social media user pointed out how he was wasting his potential, Harsh Varrdhan stated that the person had no idea the difficult a person goes through to something off-beat. He wrote:

"Dude with all due respect you have no idea how difficult it is to do anything that’s off beat or not conventional in this business ... it can take years and years to make one bhavesh or thar .. films like Ray and Ak are so rare too.. I have been working tirelessly since the day that released to make my next and I’ve also taken the responsibility to produce co create and act not just wait."

What do you think about Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor's revelation on how stars need to shrug off their star aura and produce good story-telling films?
