both star sons...Salman debuted in 1988 with a small role in Biwi ho toh aisi... but his first film as a hero from an understated production house catapulted not just him but rajshri productions into fame...a star was born.. had his shared of mixed luck after this one... but at regular intervals managed to strike back with hits like Sajan, HAHK
.
Saif's first...one of the heroes in Parampara in 1992, from the daddy of production houses YRF... didnt do too well but Saif struggled on with small, mutistarrers, dancing awkwardly...romancing awkwardly...improving slowly...till he arrived with DCH
currently Salman is the star and Saif has carved a niche as a fairly successful and bankable actor but with dabangg and Welcome before that salman has sealed his postion at the box office...such hysteria for Saif is yet to be seen...
.
Sallu's personal life attratcs much more press...Bhai shaadi kab karega is a question that will be raised in parliament soon and if he remains a bachelor there'll be conspiracy theories of dushman desh ka haath...on the other hand whether Bebo-Saif will marry or not is question that doesnt trouble too many ppl either way...
personally the star in Sallu has overpowered the actor in him... and Saifu when he couldnt really hit the stardom like the other Khans quietly worked on being a saleable actor!!!
Salman seems to make his acting look way too casual...maybe thats why people dont take him seriously as an actor...
Saif in turn has overtly made efforts to be recognized as an actor...his working in omkara with VB for example
at the end its a case of to each his own... both for Sallu and Saif and the fans!!!
