Ha...ha...right......rising star :)
RK of new generation :D
Haha seriously! RK is such a talented actor! His excellent acting skill never fails to amaze me.He rocked it once again in Barfi :)
I personally love Imram Khan! He's becoming a great actor and never fails to make me laugh and suffer with him. His best, of course, is Jaane Tu
