Well, actually no. His reputation was like KRK, a self proclaimed "superstar". Imagine someone established like say a younger Paresh Rawal, with the reputation he has for comedy roles casts a new guy , himself & KRK in a movie where all 3 are friends and are trying to woo the same girl. The whole movie has sort of Powerstar also trying to mouth dialogues in a serious manner which are hillariously funny and the other guy Santhanam (Paresh Rawal kind of fame guy) makes fun of him throughout. Imagine a couple of dialogues -Girl : Main tum logon se nahin filmstar Ranbir Kapoor se pyar karti hoonKRK (in a serious voice) : Us Ranbir Kapoor mein aisa kya hain, jo mujh mein nahin hainYou can imagine what reaction those kind of dialogues will bring.
