Gulshan Devaiah is one of the most underrated actors in Bollywood. In a short span of time, he has played a variety of roles across genres with directors like Anurag Kashyap, Dibakara Banerjee and Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He has made his professional choices very carefully. Considering his talent, he really deserves more success and fame.

We hope to see him in many more films and roles in the coming years as he proves himself to be a great actor.

The word underrated describes Swara Bhaskar as she is undoubtedly one of the most talented actors in Bollywood. Despite this, she starred in relatively few roles. Some of her most successful films include ‘Nil Bati Sunnata’, ‘Guzaarish’, ‘Tanu Weds Manu’, ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’, ‘Raanjana’ and ‘Veere Di Wedding’. And so on. I hope to see more of her movies and shows in the near future.

8. Ali Fazal

After his wife Richa Chadha, it’s time for her husband Ali Fazal to recognize her too. After she briefly appeared in Indian-American films, Ali rose to fame with her small but impactful role in Aamir Khan’s 3 Idiots.

11. Jimmy Shergill

The word underrated doesn’t do justice to Jimmy Shergill’s career, which started with Gulzar’s Maachis and hit its stride with Aditya Chopra’s Mohabbatein. Over the years, Jimmy has made a name for himself not only in Bollywood but also in Punjabi films. However, I feel like the makers have yet to fully utilize his true potential.
