Woah dude, this is absurd, you're generalizing too much here, can't decide.

And wouldn't it be better if its named best Indian movie Hero rather than Actor?

And I don't know Vikram, Simbhu, Ajith, Vijay, Surya...

But still not to disappoint you, my choice would be Mohan Lal.

Are you crazy, vikram got National award for his work on PITHAMAGAN, also in ANNIYAN he played 3 roles, and in KANDA SWAMI he is going to play 5 faces, i think he is 2nd best two do some thing different after Kamal Hasan

Surya for GHAJINI

Also wait for Simbhu latest release to know why i included him in the chart

In 2005 he played the leading role and wrote the screenplay for the film Main, Mere Patni Aur Woh which got him positive reviews. He also got acclaim for his comic roles in movies like Hungama, Waqt: The Race Against Time, Malamaal Weekly and Chup Chup Ke. Rajpal Yadav has put his trademark role into bollywood movies as a great comedy actor. *gigasmilies.googlepages.com/26.gif

Now this is too much !!! .. not to start any kind of slurs here.. but I think it would have been better if the thread concentrated on the Best "Living Actors Of Bollywood". The fact is that there are/were brilliant local actors in many Indian languages and it is true that they were not popular/known all over India but the fact remains that they are/were brilliant. Many of those listed above are really briiliant (concentrating on ACTING).. but for my part I would go for Kamal Hassan followed by Big B and Amir Khan. The pathetic fact remains that with all these grand acting jewels present, very few bollywood movies have actually utilized their talents.. I severely detest the modern crap of the crop.... !!!!

About the South Indian actors and movies, I have only seen one "Athadu" with english subtitles.. and so I cannot comment on the reknowned south indian actors.

Well, we all have our point of views, all SRK can do is hop onto some Karan Johar or Farah Khan and cry. He can't do comedy, nor action nor period dramas. Worst of all, he plays just himself and doesn't play the character in most of his films. OSO is his pathetic attempt at comedy.

If you ask me, Akshay Kumar is far better than him in the men of the same era.

There is a major diversity between the South and the North Indian fans. The south Indians think that they are always neglected by their northern counterparts and the Bollywood film industry. Well as I do not know any of the south Indian languages I cannot judge the actors working in them honestly. But even then, actors like Kamal Hassan, Mamooty, Sivaji Ganesan, Chiru (Chiranjeevi) are living legends. In terms of acting neither Aamir or Akshay Kumar nor Shahrukh (personal favorite) come anyway near them.

My vote goes to Amitabh :)


Disclaimer: These are personal views only. If someone finds them hurting their feelings/sentiments, take a walk. I don't care.

Aamir Khan. His action is so natural that you feel as if it's all true. Shahrukh acting is good but he overacts a lot and shows too much expression. Like shaking too much at the end of the movie "Chak De India" when Indian team wins world cup.

Only other actor with such pure acting is "Jayasudha", old generation actress. For proof, watch her acting in telugu movie "Amma Naanna Oo Tamila Ammayi", played Heroes mommy character. And she was awarded "Sahaja Nati" award by film industry (meaning Natural actress).

WTF? no hrithik roshan in the poll??

SRK and amitabh can act well. so can hrithik. but i like hrithik more because he is a better human. amitabh is a land grabber. SRK's movies are all hype and no substance. hrithik is down to earth, he is good.

remember SRK 's donation to tsunami victims? he had presented the check to the PM and posed for cameras...

the hrithik parody (pepsi ad) in 2000 was also SRK's brainchild.

SRK resorts to cheap publicity like showing the OSO poster in a cricket match.

SRK is so modest, he yells "am the best" and "am the king/badshah" from atop rooftops.

hrithik is the best...

hritik has not even 10 years of experience to compete with above legends in the poll, any way he was the good actor well done in krishh

My Personal favorite is Ajay Devgan.
With regards to Hritik Roshan I think he is a good actor. It's not fair to compare him with Shahrukh or any other actors before him coz they have worked for longer period and with more number of films. I feel everyone has his own style of acting. I admit that unlike other professions in films it's not very important to have lots of experience to be an actor. But at the same time there are many actors who started out as not being so good with acting but gradually they improved their acting skills. I wouldnt like to mention their names as some of you may get offended. There are always exceptions with actors being good right from their first movie.

no wonder your name is ajayrithik... The NOTW

Yes, there are many who mature over time, but its only natural. Infact, any actor who does NOT mature over time can be safely called as $ucking big time in front of others.

None of the above.

The real good ones r not in the list, perhaps because u haven't heard of them. Fair enough. How about Nasiruddin Shah, Om Puri, and since "actor" is now a days a unisex word, Shabana Azmi, late Smita Patil, among others. And i am not even mentioning some incredible actors from Bengal. The list would then become, never ending.

I have, of course, taken the liberty of assuming, that u mean "ACTORS" as in actors and not heroes.

mammootty is not known to many!that may be the reason.

Good actors are none of the above really as @karnivore said.although Mammootty is a very good actor.
actors like nedumudi venu,bharath gopi,satyan,madhu,sheela,sharada,ambika etc can be called as best actors in malayalam.am not aware of any tamil actor apart from kamala hasan,raghuvaran,shivaji ganesan.

Hey, why our ajith didnt have place in this list.

Anybody after watching varalaaru (tamil), will tell that he is the best actor. Even in kireedom (tamil), his acting has reached the next level, that too in the climax scene.

BTW how can you give vijay (Tamil) (only the list at first post) a place in this elite list. No one in the world has even vijay acting in the cinema. He is famous only for his dance and unnecessary punch dialogue.

Since, ajith is not included in the list, the best indian actor will be kamal. Dont look at the actors personal life. Even his personal life is not good, kamal is the greatest actor in the indian cinema. SRK is nowhere when compared to kamal.

Guyz.. change the thread name.. to HERO...

My choices...
Na.. na... na.... na..... patekar :D (Check him out in Welcome)
Irrfan Khan (Maqbool.. Metro... many more)
Prakash Raj
Mohanlal (though he's off-mark nowadays)
Rajpal Yadav (to the roles he does.. not all-rounder though)
K.K. (the actor)
Arshad Warsi (for his comic timing)
Aamir (do i need to explain why)
SRK (for his amazing energy & screen presence even with no real good looks! kudos for ChakDe...)
Salman (he's got great competetion, but still packs the punch... & comic timing, bod & actin(though he rarely takes it seriously).. HumDilDCS... MainePK... AndazAA... a no. of flops in which he acted well)
AB Jr. (worked hard.. got his due)
Amitab & Kamal for their versatility
Rajni (just for his screen presence (like SRK.. no good looks.. but still is HOT property))
Ajay Devgan (he grew up as an actor.. esp... from Hum Dil DCS)

Ladies.. there is Sridevi(the complete actress), Rekha(oomph with acting & attitude), Tabu, Kajol, Preity, Sush, Mads(energy & smile)..

Many more.. just couldn't remember all right now... 'll update

THESE ARE ACTORS...

A good actor is one who doesn't seem to act
- KoolBluez :D

How many on that list & those spoke about later... do that... I dont consider Vijay... Ajith... too.
Kamal rox... Vikram too... Surya(the actor)...

Rai are bunts of Mangalore and spelled as रै NOT राय as Kalpanath Rai!

Just a random listing..

Nana Patekar..he rulezz...he dusnt seem to act, so so natral, n his persona on screen, just wow, can get u doz jitters when he gets his psycho act together.
Amitabh Bachchan - hez got attitude, watch his ol' flicks to his prowess.
Sharukh khan - i am not a gr8 fan of his now, he has changed, but mind you..get a hold of his yesteryear movies, n he'll blow ur mind off. no one can come near him in sheer talent. he was called as the most talented actor the industry ever produced, even surpassing dilip kumar n amitabh. watch him in films like duplicate, yes boss etc etc. the amount of facial expressions, mesmerizing energy, just wow! girls would swoon over him.
Aamir khan - star on earth.
Akshay kumar - blossomed late but yo, hez got the comic timings n the hoarse 'jungle' like voice n actions to go with it, can send u ROFL, his one liners r terrific. but still he is not able to carry a film on his shoulders alone. cannot do well in romantic, serious flicks. though he is been a box ofice champ lately. sems to have increased his fees to a whopping 22 crores, bah!
Naseeruddin shah - stage actor, uber cool, dead serious, natural impaccable acting.
Paresh rawal - watch him n u'l knw

there r a bunch of more talented guyz out der..dnt remember.. but who cares...
n yea, i dnt find hrithik talented, just style n pulled up some childish acts. hez got looks though.

i have feeling you guys from the north have not seen kamal hassan's works . i like amitabh , sharukh and amir khan is one of my favourite actors . but you cant weigh kamal hassan on the same scale as others be it from north or south . maybe he is not getting enough credits because he is from the south .

Kamal's movies are different from North Indian movies, so there is no scope for comparison. But he is the best actor in his own way, because he is different. You people should really get some movies of his with subtitles and check them out.

That's strange.Why is Hrithik Roshan not in the list? He is an extremely talented actor.I could also say the same for John Abraham if give good roles like in Zinda & Karm.But Hrithik definitely needs to be up there.Regardless of the tenure he is been in this industry for.:)

You just have to watch his Koi Mil Gaya to know how good an actor he is. No one in the Indian film industry could have done that role so well. HE has every thing - good looks, good physique, is a great dancer, has a strong screen prescence and can do any role perfectly.

Although I didn't fancy Koi Mil Gaya that much I would rate his performance in Mission Kashmir as Altaf the highest.Albeit the movie being vastly under rated.The agression & the intesity of his character was truly awesome.I would like to see him rise above the chocolate boy roles & get into some serious character like Mission Kashmir for a change.His screen presence in Dhoom II was enough to pull audiences to the theaters although the movie was pure garbage, his verstality still holds.:D

^^ His performance in Fiza was also mind-blowing.

About Koi Mil Gaya, I didn't particularly fancy the movie much myself. But it's his performance that elevates what was a rather mediocre movie, especially his expressions. For e.g. in the scene where the bad guys hit him with the basketball and the one where he is sitting with the idol of Lord Krishna, asking what he had done wrong to be born like this. That particular scene always makes me a bit emo. :D

About Dhoom 2, you are right. It's because of Hrithik that the movie was successful. He has this knack of making even a mediocre movie seem good. Without him nobody would've watched the movie, even if Aishwarya would have been nude in the movie. Well, maybe a few. :p

I've never seen anyone give such awesome expressions. He truly is a fantastic actor.

^True.Fiza could have been potrayed in a better way.The end IMO was a huge let down.All that iron pumping & all Hrithik did was shoot the person towards the end.What a waste? ;) But still he had some good moments in that.

If you look at his career graph he hit a low with his performances in Sooraj Barjatya films.At one point after watching Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon, I thought he had lost all his credibility in that film.But thankfully after that he had matured a lot.Roles in Koi Mil Gaya, KKRISH & Dhoom 2 are adding different shades to his character.All that cliche of his movies only working with his father is totally rubbish.IMO provided a good script & a proper director he could easily pull off an excellent performace.:)

Koi mil gaya was the only film in whcih Hrithik really acted..In the other ones he tried to show off more Brawn than brain and tried to move ahead..kkrish was patheitc..he looked and acted pathetic...actually there was nothing to act for..poorly crafted film with a stupid storyline.he invariably fails in films which need him to portray some expression..courtroom scenes in Jodha akbar were a pain to watch...hes yet to perform in a movie that needs him to ooze out feelings and show a sense of character..like abhishek in GURU and YUVA,KK menon in all his films,etc etc.even john abraham outclasses him when it comes to films..
DHoom 2 was a nonsense movie..people went there to see hrithik dance and ash strip..abhishek was a scrapegoat made to dance to in the middle... actually dhoom 2 took much from Dhoom where John set the roads on fire..Hrithik's acting leaves much to be desired ...


but we cant take away his brilliant dancing skills,his good acting..and hopefully he will grow better as he progresses..

I think Amitach is the best...He is really versatile and has been performing consistently from the past 35 years or so..

Among the actors of today, I find Hrithik to be the best....

Among actors of today. Rahul bose is way ahead of the competion when it comes to Acting...hrithik is all candy floss..abhishek throws up a few decent performances here and there with GURU,YUVA and SARKAR RAj. John went to the oscars with WATER..lots to choose..

^so true.but overacting is the term many oldies used to say.
IIRC nadigar thilakam is what he is called na?
Consider Malayalam actor Satyan(he is a tamilian if it gets some patriotic feelings to TN ppl) too.he can be surely called the best actor from India. :)
*movies.deepthi.com/malayalam/actors/sathyan.html

Also ,Kottarakkara Sreedharan Nair can be too the best actor title.:smile:
