During the interview with India Today, the Gadar actress remarked, "After Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, Ranbir, Hrithik and Kartik are definitely carrying the legacy forward, that's it. I feel that's where it might end. They are the ones truly delivering, and it's scary to think about what will happen to Bollywood after them." 

Furthermore, she talked about the immense pressure carried by the leading stars and stressed how the audience expects every film from a top actor to replicate past success.

'Not Every Movie Can be a Blockbuster...'

The Humraaz actress also shared how the audience expects the released films of Shah Rukh, Sunny Deol, Ajay Devgn, Salman Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Hrithik Roshan must live up to their earlier hits. Further, she added that it is unrealistic to expect every film to be a massive success. The Gadar actress stressed that such success is uncommon and not every movie can be a blockbuster.

Talking about how the pressure is exacerbated on a handful of big names in Bollywood, she said, "If the pressure were more evenly distributed across a wider group, it would be easier. But, since it is concentrated on so few, it's challenging.

During the interview, she also praised the emerging talents in Bollywood for making significant strides.
