9 UNDER-RATED BOLLYWOOD CELEBS WHO DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION

Underrated Bollywood Actors

When we think about underrated actors, names like Irrfan Khan, Manoj Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Rajkummar Rao and Radhika Apte pop up in our head. But haven’t they garnered praises from the audience by proving their acting mantle and placed themselves in the mainstream cinema? Over the time some actors manage to be a part of mainstream cinema, whereas some actors manage to be a part of more or less every other movie for their acting, but still do not get as much recognition as they should get. Many of us do not even know their names. Here are 9 underrated Bollywood celebs that deserve more recognition.

Vikrant Massey

The actor is popular on TV screens, but he caught the public attention with his role in Lootera. The actor has played the role of male leads friend in every movie and has received appreciation in every screen presence, yet he is away from mainstream cinema. His best performance by far was his heart-wrenchingly vulnerable portrayal of Shutu in A Death in the Gunj.

Richa Chadda

The actor often performs the edgy and offbeat roles, and never fails to make an impact on the audience. She has made the audience remember her role, be it her foul-mouthed role in Gangs of Wasseypur or her character of Bholi Punjaban in Fukrey. She makes sure that the character is etched into the memory of audience.
