Shraddha Kapoor’s success also has a unique USP

She has achieved impressive box office numbers without sharing screen space with any of the three Khans. This is a unique accomplishment that none of the leading actresses can claim.
Trade veteran Taran Adarsh praised Shraddha Kapoor’s impressive track record, saying, “I’ve always felt she hasn’t received the recognition she deserves. Now it’s time for the media to acknowledge her success. Achieving such success is rare, and everyone, including those in the industry, should be aware of the impressive numbers Shraddha has delivered.

He added, “Shraddha Kapoor is extremely popular, and her popularity has certainly fueled the excitement for Stree 2. She is also known for being non-controversial; I haven’t heard of any scandals or negative news involving her. Her impeccable reputation contributes positively to her career, as carrying a bad reputation can negatively affect one’s success.

Trade analyst Atul Mohan commented, “If a film is popular, it definitely benefits its cast. As Shraddha plays the lead role, she will undoubtedly reap the rewards of the film’s success.

Distributor and exhibitor Raj Bansal expressed uncertainty about her becoming the next big star, saying, “While she will certainly benefit from the success of Stree 2, which is a massive blockbuster, it’s not necessarily going to lead to an extraordinary breakthrough for her.

Girish Johar, producer and film business analyst, remarked, “Shraddha Kapoor is a major star who has carved out a distinct place in the industry by taking on unique roles within commercial cinema. Her performances in films like Aashiqui 2, Ek Villain, and Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar have been outstanding. She has a strong appeal and is definitely among the top 5 actors. The industry recognizes this, and it’s often noted that casting her alongside a popular young actor can easily ensure a good opening on Friday.

He noted, “She is choosing her films very strategically and avoids frequent public appearances. This makes her a blend of Ranbir Kapoor and Aamir Khan. Like Ranbir, she is selective with her roles and not always in the spotlight.

When asked about viewers complaining about her limited screen time, he responded, “It depends on the script. Screen time doesn’t matter as much as what you contribute and whether you meet audience expectations. No one is suggesting that it isn’t a Shraddha Kapoor film. The fact that she’s being discussed indicates that her performance has resonated.

Further emphasizing that screen time isn’t everything, Girish Johar pointed out, “Bobby Deol received all the acclaim in Animal despite having limited screen time. That’s a prime example of how impact outweighs the amount of screen time.
