1. Start off small

Ranveer Singh served coffee at Starbucks, Sonam Kapoor was a waitress, Rajnikanth was a bus conductor... you're getting our drift. Start off small, so you can boast of your humble beginnings when you’re a big star.

Because you WILL be a big star after surrendering to this post. Trust us.

2. Then, get launched by a big production house- whether you have the talent or not.

Some get better with time, some just get worse.

3. Get invited to a famous talk show. Win the hamper.

Or better yet, be a sore loser about not winning the hamper.

4. Date a few co-stars.

Make sure the media hears about it, then deny all rumours. #Likeaboss

5. If you don't like your co-stars, throw in a cricketer or two.

Who said Bollywood actors can't be interested in sports, right? ;)

6. Act in a fairness cream ad.

Because advocating skin lighter than our natural colour is part of our roots and cultural heritage, right?

7. And if you're too cool for fairness creams, then just stick to shampoos.

Because you're worth it, you know?

8. Put on some overpriced jewellery and let your hair blow in the wind while you gear up for holy matrimony.

No matter how ugly it may look.

9. Advertise a chocolate that tastes like poop.

Seriously, don't touch her Schmitten.

10. Bitch about another actor

Because we all love a little catfight, don’t we?

11. You MUST do an item number.

Apart from award-winning and critically acclaimed roles, *cough*, one must indulge in the occasional item number as well. It helps to build character.

Don't worry, they'll mostly be watched on mute. 

12. Do a painfully annoying ad about something that promises to keep you healthy.

 Because we NEED the andar ka snaan, guys.

13. Have a big fat Indian wedding!

Have a grand Bollywood-style wedding that the media will talk about for weeks to come, ignoring actual news.

Now that we've taught you the ropes, you see how easy it is to become a superstar in Bollywood? Go on, what are you waiting for? Your life of superstardom awaits you! ^_^
