An underrated actor is someone who despite having immense potential and in spite of having proved himself again and again, hasn’t really got his due share of recognition or prominence. He need not merely be fitting into the proverbial ‘Hero’ category in Bollywood. He can also be a character actor who makes a difference to a movie. I asked my followers to give their choice for whom they feel has to be the most underrated actor in Bollywood. A few of the options given by me were Akshay Khanna, Shiney Ahuja, Kay Kay Menon, Deepak Dobriyal, Rahul Bose, Ranveer Shourie,Vinay Pathak,Irrfan Khan,Raghuveer Yadav,Vijay Raaz,Rajat Kapoor,Aftab Shivdasani, Abhay Deol and Manu Rishi.
In the answers that I received, Ajay Devgn’s name prominently featured as many fans feel that he hasn’t got the due attention from Media the way the Khans have. And yes it seems Akshaye Khanna is a clear favourite for being the most underrated actor that we have in Bollywood. Take a look at the various view points. And yes, we shall do the Blog post for Most Underrated Actress in Bollywood soon.
1) RRKHAN
@Faridoon_S akshaye khanna: most underrated
2) with_an_idea
@Faridoon_S Akshay Khanna hands down- the guy can pull off any role with aplomb and Vivek Oberoi, though he's getting appreciated slowly.
3) AkshayaaGirl13
@Faridoon_S AkshayeKhanna is the most underrated actor! Period! :)
4) zainsul
@Faridoon_S Akshaye Khanna......his performances in race and gandhi my father are simply awesome. sadly he never got due credit for them.
5) Sunny_bca
@Faridoon_S I think sharman,
rahul nd akshay kh are very great actor but the x factor which gives huge stardom is missing
6) Fatemeh__
@Faridoon_S Akshay Khanna
7) milena0405
@Faridoon_S Siddharth! he is a superstar in tollywood but why he cant get a foothold in bollywood!! he is definitely an underrated actor:(
8) francyy9
@Faridoon_S most underrated actor is Bobby Deol. he's brilliant actor.someone who doesn't use his family background 2 being part of industry
9) NitishV89
@Faridoon_S AKSHAYE KHANNA
10) milena0405
@Faridoon_S my fav Kunal Kapoor!! the guy is brilliant and totally unique, but he its an underrated actor! pls give him a lead role soon!
11) rube80
@Faridoon_S I feel a lot of the names u mentioned aren't quite underrated! I mean KayKay,RahulBose,IrrfanKhan and few others u mentioned might not b household names but they r truly know as very very good actors in the industry, so can we really call them underrated? Perhaps under appreciated:) When I think of underrated... Sharman Joshi pops into my mind!
12) radhiah94
@Faridoon_S Sharman Joshi is one of the underrated actor!! he's brilliant actor but can't find his place yet in the industry!!
13) ajaydevgnfan

@Faridoon_S mostly all the comedy actors u see in smaller roles, like rajpal n paresh, are underated they act better than main stream heroes
21) jaibishnoi1
@Faridoon_S irfan khan
22) Sweeet_bird
@Faridoon_S emraan hashmi is the most under rated actor in bollywood.
23) jaibishnoi1
@Faridoon_S Abhishek Bachche, he is the most unlucky actor, and probably not very good at choosing movies !!
24) jaibishnoi1
@Faridoon_S Neil N Mukesh. No one mentions his nme wen tey tok bout nwcomrs, i feel actng wise and versatility wise he is better of the lot
25) vikas_ajwani
@Faridoon_S Kay Kay Menon
26) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S arshad warsi.
27) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S oh yes also emraan hashmi(all are only talking about kisses) but he can also act very good
28) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S irfaan khan and vivek oberoi
29) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S also ajay devgan. he is such a good actor. but still not treated like big names like srk hrithik etc
30) Cursed_n_broken
@Faridoon_S Sharman joshi is also largely ignored! am glad he's bagged that Ferari film
31) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S akshaye khanna(my fav)

@Faridoon_S But i do think Abhay Deol is underrated as an actor! Arjun Mathur too!
33) bollywoodmariam
@Faridoon_S sanjay suri sharman joshi

35) nurainfarizan
@Faridoon_S Bobby Deol is another underrated actor. Good-looking, can definitely act but acting career never really happened.
