Bollywood Actors

Mumbai Film Industry or 'Bollywood' as it is informally called is one of the busiest film industries of the world. Many films are produced during the course of the year in Bollywood and there have been some movies in the recent times. Actors are one of the important aspects of film making and its the choice of the actor that sets the tone for the movie and determines its eventual success or failure.

Bollywood has managed to produce some of the finest actors that international cinema has ever witnessed. There have been many actors in the Hindi cinema right from the Black and White era to the present who have captured the hearts of many of the movie buffs with their endearing acting styles. Scintillating performances from acting stalwarts like Dev Anand and Dilip Kumar in the past to the present generation of actors like Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan have been one of the main reasons behind the success of so many of Bollywood films over a period of time. These fine actors have enjoyed tremendous box office success and on certain occasions have even translated weak film scripts to success at the Box Office on sheer individual brilliance.
The section on 'Bollywood Actors' is a compilation (in alphabetical order) of interesting profiles of some of the finest male actors from Bollywood. Presented below is a gallery of dazzling Indian actors from Bollywood with representation of both current and previous generation of film stars

Generally Salman Khan does anything to keep his words. But for a change this time Mr. Generous didn’t seem to live up to his title and broke many hearts. Yes, Salman broke the promise given to Hijra guru and social activist Laxmi Narayan Tripathi of lending his gracious presence as one of the jury members of Indian Super Queen, a beauty pageant for Hijra community.

Laxmi Narayan Tripathi fumed and sarcastically remarked without taking any names, “I don’t understand why celebrities have to make false promises when they don’t mean a word. It’s disheartening to know- celebrities find ‘cycling race’ more important than something which is so socially relevant.” Laxmi surely pointed towards the superstar, for Salman was reportedly present at a cycling race earlier.

Laxmi came up with these words soon after ever-beautiful Zeenat Aman exclaimed that she couldn’t refuse Laxmi after the latter invited her to be one of the jury members in such a historical and socially relevant occasion.

Wonder, what has Salman to say on these remarks! But one thing is for sure Salman is now not in the good books of third gender.

Salman Khan: Bollywood’s own bad boy may well have reputation and a tendency to stir up controversies, but when it comes to pay packets, he certainly rakes in the big money. He is known to charge about 8-10 crores per movie, and even though his acting skills (and his accent) have always been debatable, he does deliver hits and has a huge fan following.


Hrithik Roshan: After the huge success of Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish, this green eyed boy has fast risen among the Bollywood ranks. Jodhaa Akbar was critically appreciated (though it was very long). Hrithik takes in approximately 10 crores and his three film deal with Adlabs, rumoured to be worth 30 crores, once made him the highest paid star in tinsel town.

Shahrukh Khan: The baadshah of Bollywood is known to deliver certain hits and hence gets paid royally for that. With umpteen ads and television shows, times are good for him. He charges a cool 12 crores for a movie.


Aamir Khan: The perfectionist of Bollywood has the highest delivery rate. Usually doing a movie a year, all his movies turn out to be blockbusters. With Ghajini breaking all records, Aamir has once again proven his might. And for that, he charges about 13-14 crores a movie.


Akshay Kumar: Tadaa! His rise to the top has certainly been one to chart. Silently but slowly overtaking the Khan brigade, Akki has consistently delivered hits. He has proven to be the king of mindless comedies and producers rush to him for any comic role. He takes home a whopping 15 crores per movie, the highest ever paid to a Bollywood actor.
