Imran Khan Moves Ahead Of Ranbir

The success of Delhi Belly has made a hat-trick for Imran Khan after ‘I Hate Luv Storys’ (hit) and ‘Break Ke Baad’ (coverage). On the other hand his closest rival Ranbir has some catching up to do as he hasn’t had a release for almost a year now.
His ‘Rockstar’ is continuing to get pushed and while it is expected to be huge on entertainment, it is still a wait for the star. Meanwhile for Imran this is turning out to be a pretty sorted out phase as he has a definite success in hand with his next release - Yash Raj’s ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’.
“Imran is all set to make it four in a row,” says an industry expert, “The film has everything going for it, whether it’s his first time pairing with Katrina or the feel good ‘marriage’ subject, something that has seen a cent percent record in recent past. Remember how ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ and ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ were lapped up by the masses as well?”
The rivalry would take a further turn early next year as well when Ranbir’s ‘Barfee’ would be arriving close to Imran’s tentatively titled ‘Short Term Shaadi’. It would be also noticed quite closely due to the fact that the films would also be pitting Priyanka Chopra against Kareena Kapoor.
Will Imran make it five in a row? Well, that pretty much seems like the case. Now all eyes are on Ranbir whether he would gain back to back successes in ‘Rockstar’ and ‘Barfee’ and give it back at his close friend-n-rival Imran. Source
