Most over-rated actors in Bollywood

Some actors are stars, but are all stars actors? There are a few; the likes of Naseeruddin Shah, Vinay Pathak, Paresh Rawal, Pankaj Kapur who are brilliant actors, but are often restricted to small roles in big films or big roles in small films. Either way they do not get the recognition they truly deserve and are completely ignored at most annual award ceremonies.

On the other hand, Bollywood has a number of superstars, who command a huge fan-following spreading to different parts of the world. But do these stars deserve all the money, fame and not to mention awards, that is a part of super-stardom? Or are they unnecessarily over-hyped? Post your comments below

Here is the list of some of the Top Actors in Bollywood (in no particular order) vote for those who you think are most over-rated. (YOU CAN SELECT UPTO 3 ACTORS FROM THE LIST BELOW)

Note: Most overrated Actress poll will be up tomorrow

  • what is wrong with you guys….? shah rukh is not an over rated actor…. please…. grow up…. he is KING of bollywood.and who was he saying that shah rukh work with selected dirctors???? i think you dont know anything about him but just writing such things here about him.
    the most over rated actor of bollywood is salman khan no doubt about it…. he is in the industry from last 17 0r 18 years and he achieve nothing but just this that he has the habbit of talking about others who are far better then him… he is not just over rated but also he is very jelouse with those actors who started their carrer almost with him but they are now one of the biggest actors of bollywood. but he is no where….
    and 2nd should be amir khan because he is the one who choose those roles which are very stronge and the story of the movie is also very strong so does not matter that how he acts. and he does one film in an year so you just can not judge that how good he is…..
    i still dont believe that shah rukh is on no 3, but frankly he should not be listed. and also akshy kumar. bollywood is earning million of mony with these two faces. and they are not OVER RATED…..
    to the team i wanna say that please keep checking all these comments because there are some people who are using bad words.

  • Indicine Team: Farah Khan is right.. Shahrukh should be out of this list because he deserves his title as The King of Bollywood.. and Aamir khan too..he knows how to select his scripts and directors for his movies and he does a good job now.. so he’s not an over-rated actor.. he’s also a producer/director.

    Other actors who shouldn’t be in the above list are:

    Hrithik Roshan: do u all think that he’s an over rated actor?! No ofcourse.. he’s a superstar and one of the best in the industry.

    John Abraham too ( for the reasons which I already mentioned)

    Saif Ali Khan ( what did Saif gain all these years? Some awards as the best supporting actor or best villaine? he deserves more because he’s doing good movies since 5 years now.. he was good in Hum Tum, Dil Chata Hai, Kal Ho Na Ho, Ek Hasina Thi, Race and now Love Aaj Kal) and so far.. he didn’t receive an award as the best actor in the leading role!! so.. how can he be over-rated actor?

    Sanjay Dutt: he deserves more appreciation.

    And ofcourse.. Amitab Bachan.. he’s old now but noone is as good as him in terms of acting.. yeah I know that he did lots of pure commercial movies in the past, but as an actor..he’s the best.. if Amitab Bachan was younger now and in the age of Shahrukh, Aamir, Akshay.. he would’ve topped them all.. he could’ve been called as the imperor of bollywood and Shahrukh as the King.

    The most over-rated are: Salman Khan & Akshay Kumar

  • Heeey Fathiya, why are u want force people to hate people who u dont like and love ur favourite, u said that saif did good films and he does’nt get award so what of akshay wich u mention as overated compare to saif who he got many hit good performances wich is better better than saif one’s and without award 4 best actor, wich overating are u talking about akshay? or are u jealous about what magzine wrote to him, call him no.1 or superstar apart from that wich archievement akshay get that make u call him overated. Dont 4get 2007 he brought 4 back 2 bact big hit, 2 good perfomance, 2 good entertaiment. I start respect your comment but now i know where u face, u just mention salman bcos he always said something bad about ur actor and akshay kumar is the only big contender of shah rukh position as no.1, thats it.

    self-justification.

  • INDY n fathiya:U r just an badass idiot n Follower of tht stupid old man.This is not ur site….WHt u tell is not truth.I really dissapointed tht People like u r one crap of the public who watch movie n like a crap movie.I will not used a bad language because i m not here to fight or argue with someone……..But people like u really make my temper goes high…………………………

    THose who do their work by heart always follows the actor like salman,akshay ,aamir….Because they r very good n down to earth person n really wish sucess of their…

    THose who do their work by mind are follow of SRK,And other crap actor like John,abishek, etc……

  • The truth is tht Even u hate Salman n Akshay …they r big superstar…If they have not done good work then y the hell they r call big superstar…..It is simpli because they can carry movie on their own…….

    People like SRK always work with famous n good director ,script writer n Story writer….Even if there was a dino moreya or other B-C grade actor…They can also make movie hit…

    I have not be against someone like this before in this site
    but now i feel y to be patient n listen to all crap people like u…….Truth is SRK is an Idiot,stupid person who thinks he is king of bollywood….If he is king of bollywood then We want republic of bollywood….We need president….King is old n We need aam janta as a king not that Stupid SRK

  • Hey Sudeep, i think u are confused about what u talk.U claim other paople follow crap actors but u have forgetten that u followed biggest crap actors (actually it is a dishonest to the profession to call them actors). I accept the fact that Akshay is a big star now(eventhouh Tarshan, CC2C, Jambo, 10*8 Tasveer are huge flops blue seems to be quiet nice) but unfortunately Salman is no more a big star. His time is over. Even actors like Saif, Shahid have passed Salman. Salman hasn’t done anything worth watching movie for the last 10 years. U may not agree with me but all movies Akshay had done for the last few years are totally crap.
    To be really honest people in my country think both of them are B grade actors. Yesterday when i was watching Dus ka Dum my father saw salman and why this man shout? Is this guy have a mental problem?(he doesn’t know Salman) Salman can’t even host that programme rightly. Lot of people watch it just to see a mad man’s behaviour(u know it’s entaining)
    From heart and mind even u know that Salman and Akshay do only crap film but u don’t accept it because u are fan if them. Anyway i just sympathize u…………..

  • Sudeep: well if u r in a bad mood.. you shouldn’t take it out on others!! what?!! u r so unhappy because Liza said whatever she felt about Akshay or Salman?!! if you love an actor who does a flop after a flop.. who’s Salman Khan.. then how should ppl listen to u when u say that he’s good.. he’s the best!! he’s only good for u idiot.. but not for ppl who see “only” performances”

    Sofar.. I never saw a movie for Salman Khan – since he existed in bollywood – which he did a brilliant job in it.. he could not act from his debute movie Maine Pyaar Kiya.. he’s successful because of his look only.. that’s him.. and he’s still drinking milk from the bottle.. and still him mom beat him!! haha.

    And Akshay.. Akshay is at least better and he works hard but he doesn’t know how to select his movies, his scripts, directors & producers and because he did the silly kachra movie cc2c.. ther4 I consider him as an over-rated actor.

    Sudeep: just get lost.. you’re jealous of Shahrukh Khan and want to bring him down.. you can’t.. and you’d never be able to do so.. he’s the king khan and will remain.. king khan whether u liked it or not

  • LIZA ,FAthiya,INDY:You all are just an stupid,idiot n I have no issue with u because there is not point to talk mad people like you……………. Whtever u said,tht doesnot make me to hate Salman n Akshay…U go n Have a private time with gay SRK…..I have no prb……………….People like u are irritating all people….

  • Liza:U r saying dus ka dum is bad show…..HOw stupid u r…..1st season was a hit n 2nd season is also a hit…Not like SRK whose 1st show was hit n second kya apa 5th grade se betar he was a flop..big flop…….Dont think ur srk is big….I donot consider him n think he is in the position where my socks n shoes r …he is stupid stupid n stupid……………..

    Fathiya:Y should i be jealos of SRK.who the hell is he……..He is not number 1 …….He always fix the award .Y aamir khan doesnot get any award even he is doing better.For exam-he donot get award from Lagaan which was a great movie,rang de basanti which was also a great movie….

    Aamir khan said once””Sachin never say he is number 1 but this SRK always say he is number one.This is wht an badass stupid say all time”

  • Sudeep: u r accusing Shahrukh of something you didn’t see with your own eyes!! how the hell do u know that he with Karan Johar hv some good time privately together?!! R u a magician or a photographer tried to sneek into their house and saw everythig with yr own eyes?!!

    Don’t dare talking about Shahrukh this way.. understood?

  • Fathiya:U motherfucker……Then how can u say same thing with akshay n salman khan….U just piss off…..U r really an idiot asshole of SRK…..

  • Indicine Team: this moron Sudeep is exceeding his limits.. please delete his comments or just give him a warning.. started to be abusive.

    Sudeep: you asshole.. read the comments posted with opened eyes.. I’m not the one who said this about Salman/Akshay.. other girls did..freak guy!!

  • Indicine team:U can delete my comment but u must also delete fathiya n Indy comment….I know i m gone way ahead but i havenot started this…..if u see comment above it was fathiya,indy was one who started first

  • Sudeep Thank God u realise the mistake, thats what all these shah rukh khan fans are. Pls ignore what ever they say about u and and ur actors, keep saying your mind nobody who can stop u and urr actors. And u Fathiya b/4 u are not doing all this bad comment about somebody. Pls do not accused, say what ever u like about all these actors no body who can stop u bcos their not our parent. So pls Fathiya and Sudeep the reason why I mention ur name i think ur not compeletly pessimist. We have to respect our self. Plsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. Guy’ssssssssssss.

  • Indicine Team: this guy is a big lyer.. who’s name is Sudeep.. he says that I’ve started it all and I didn’t but he’s the one who did!! yeah.. just go back to the previous comments and u will find that he mentioned my name with Indy and I didn’t say any bad stuff on this page except that Salman & Akshay are over-rated actors ( and that’s my opinion whether he liked it or not..he can’t blame me for that!!)

    Lyer.. just go to hell coward boy!

  • Fathiya:U said ,akshay n salman is most over ratted ..tht wht i mean….U r simpli jealous of them……If they r overratted then ur srk is also overratted…U said because they r neck to neck with srk

  • Sudeep u are mistaken in my earlier comment i didn’t even mentioned SRK’s name because i’m not his fan. I’m a fan of Arjun Rampal. But to be really honest to people in my country bollywood means Shahrukh. Most of people here don’t even know who Salman and Akshay are. If about the way Shahrukh and Salamn host shows…..anyone who saw those shows can realize that shahrukh has class and dignity which salman doesn’t. And i think SRK’s show was very meaningfull one which is for educated intelligent people while Salman’s one is for uneduceted third class people. I’m not shock to know that salman’s one is hit in India because more than half of the population in india are uneducated.

  • stop it…… please…… why you all are fighting and guys look at the word you guys are using??? what is wong with all of you….

  • i agree with liza. if you are not a fan of some one at least we should speack the truth…and it is a fact that shah rukh is ruling the bollywood now and he is not an over rated actor…
    so accept and and stop abusing each other.

  • The most over-rated are:SRK,AKHSAY,SALMAN,JOHN,
    1. SRK (NO ONE LOVE HIM EXCEPT HIS FANS)..he is arrogant n call himself big star

  • The most over-rated are:SRK,AKHSAY,SALMAN,JOHN,SHAHID KAPOOR,RANBIR KAPOOR
    1. SRK (NO ONE LOVE HIM EXCEPT HIS FANS)..he is arrogant n call himself big star

  • he is elevated by the foolish public to the status of King. The truth is that his acting ability is mediocre and his roles are often shallow and poorly developed

    saif even much better than him

    hollywood is not interested to give him a role…if he’s a good actor, Hollywood would have given him the role

    oh yes amir is the best actor…look at lagaan in nominations OSCAR….

    OSO,RNBDJ,DEVDAS and all the movies of srk in nominations OSCAR IMPOSSIBLE… IMPOSSIBLE…IMPOSSIBLE…IMPOSSIBLE…IMPOSSIBLE…IMPOSSIBLE…
    because he is bad actor…

  • the mega stars actors ( great actors ) in this list
    1) Amitab Bachchan ….40 yrs in bollywood he did all types of roles. the big stars still remark his movies
    2) King Khan (SRK)….the few movies when he slipped from the “lover boy ” gown he played amazing roles non other than him can do it by this amazing way as in (devdas,ashoka, don,chakdi, swades) beside no one can compete him as the charming dimpled lover boy with his lovable sense of humor & he is the only lover boy in bollywood who can romance the girl & kill her in the same time by the same great quality.
    3 )Aamir Khan ….no one can compete him in the complex characters …his choices of his movies stories are very good ….amazing in – ve roles, great in action but moderate in romance & weak to bad in comedy
    4 )Akshay kumar ….king of variety …king of action…king of adventurous movies…moderate in comedy…weak to moderate in romance
    5 )Saif ali khan….great in -ve roles, great in action, good in romance, moderate in comedy …

  • SRK,sallu ,abhishek bachchan, saif ali khanand ranbir kapoor are most overarted actors .
    SRK has some big films to his name courtesy BIG BANNERS and because he is a VERY GOOD MARKETER but as an actor he isn’t that versatile . SAllu is a Nice actor but when it comes to Comedy , he is horrible: check out hello brother,chal mere bhai and many more except partner and Andaz apna apna which were great movies.
    Abhishek bachchan , saif ali khan and ranbir kapoor are other overarted actors who are not that versatile.
    Amitabh , AKKI , aamir and Hrihik are the best actors , i say ACTORS in the industry
