Bollywood has always been ruled by the Kapoor and Khans. The audience is also used to the high-profile actors and their larger-than-life portrayal of characters who beat up the bad guys and protect the heroine on the celluloid, but then there are some actors who beg to differ. You may not remember the name of the actors, but you'll always remember the character they play on the silver screen. Here're some of these awesome actors of our industry.
Time and again, he has proved that he is the unconventional king of Bollywood. A self-made film star, who assays versatile roles in hit commercials as well as art films and does justice to each one of them! Maqbool, Lunchbox, Haider, Namesake, Paan Singh Tomar, Piku, Billu and the latest Madaari, each of the movies that he has been a part of, is a classic in itself.
Siddiqui with his common man look and vibe makes his appearance look more connected to the audience. A product of National School of Drama, he excels at the role that he does. From Freaky Ali to Bajrangi Bhaijaan, he has been phenomenal in his acting career.
Probably one of the few actors in the tinsel town who has done all the logical films that had a brilliant script. He has delivered the best of his performances in every movie that he's done. From Ranjhanna to Zindgai Na Milegi Dobara to Charkrvyuh, he has almost never failed to astound us with his acting abilities!
From an urban guy who always had a thing with commitment to a guy who's a village schoolmaster, Rahul Bose is one of those amazing actors in Bollywood who's known for his acting prowess and versatility.
Kick starting his journey as VJ, Ranvir Shorey has acted in brilliant movies such as Bheja Fry, Khosla ka Ghosla and Honeymoon Travels. He also has a common vibe associated with his acting that's most appreciated in him.

Remember the guy who played Preity's Mahesh Uncle in Dil Chahta Hai? He'll always be the Mahesh Uncle since he has outlived the character! Further, he has been picky in his roles, but has often done full justice to them. His popular roles include Corporate, Bheja Fry and Khoya Khoya Chand.
We just can't get over the exceptional acting, he has shown in the movie Pink, released recently. He has also been the narrator of the movies like Gangs of Wasseypur and Tamasha. Critically acclaimed for his role in Vishal Bharadwaj’s Maqbool, he remains one of the gems of the Bollywood industry.
He is one of the first actors who did unconventional roles and completely rocked them. With movies like Gupt, Hey Ram and Machis, his acting skills are enough to describe him.
We first noticed him in Dibakar Banerjee's, Love, Sex aur Dhoka. However, he truly came into the limelight with Kai Po Che! and of course Queen. With excellent acting skills and a simple boy next door look, this actor is here to stay.
