Eggjactly Vinay!! Rajpal is a fantastic actor...but just like Pankaj kapoor, he needs to be extremely selective with his choice of roles. These silly B-comedies may give him everything - top billing, more mooolah...but in the long-term it will end up destroying his 'core' market! Its better to do good, peripheral roles in bigger and better set-ups than doing inconsequential embarassing stuff like Ladies tailor and Rama Rama. Thin Pankaj Kapoor - definitely not your convential 'star'- and then have a look at his 5 movies in the last 5 years - Maqbool, Dus, Dharm, Blue Umbrella, Halla Bol - Wow! Whatta resume! Movies where he has easily over-shadowed the protagonists and seasoned performers like Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan, Irfan Khan!! Commercial, art - the man has left his impressions across the board! Hence inspite of Dharm amd Halla Bol bombing at the box office - Pankaj kapoor continues to grow in stature - Here's a true blue actor. Give him good roles and he will turn them around to great characters! And bad roles - well, he just won't accept!
