TW Newsdesk, Nov 23: Superstar Salman Khan says the era of stars would never come to an end in the film industry but the new generation of actors need to work hard as they won’t be “handed over” the title on a platter.
The 55-year-old actor believes younger actors will have to put in as much effort to be called superstars as they do to retain the title.
“Even I’ve been hearing that ‘stars ka zamana khatam ho gaya hai’ (the era of stars is over). Since four generations I’ve been hearing, ‘This is the last generation of stars…’
“But we won’t leave it for the younger generation to take it easily, we won’t hand it over to the them. They have to work hard, like we are doing at the age of fifty plus,” Salman said in a group interview.
“Era of superstars will never fade. We will go, someone else will come up. I don’t think the era of stars will go; it’ll always be there. But it depends on a lot of things.
“Selection of movies, what you are in real life. It’s a whole package. The younger generation will surely have their superstardom.”
The actor is currently gearing up for the release of his latest film, “Antim”, which features him as a Sikh cop.
Directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, the action thriller also stars Aayush Sharma, Salman’s brother-in-law, as a gangster.
