Take a look at these underrated Bollywood actors who aced their character on-screen and made us fall in love with them.

It has always been and will probably be a topic of discussion and debate for years to come on giving certain "character actors" the due recognition that they all deserve. Bollywood has always been under scrutiny for favouring one group of people over others. What might be unfair to some is what makes someone else's career. No matter how much the industry is blamed, the audiences are also equally responsible for the same. The industry has introduced a bunch of talented actors who have been able to deliver an impactful performance. They have proved worthy of the opportunity provided making our movie watching experience worthy. Although these underrated actors have not been able to show every bit of their talent due to lack of meatier roles, we all love and appreciate them. As people discuss and debate on nepotism and equal opportunity, we have made a list of underrated Bollywood actors who nailed it on-screen.

Take a look at these underrated Bollywood actors:

Abhay Deol

Vijay Raaz

He is an incredible actor who made us laugh with his exceptional comic timing with movies like Run, Delhi Belly, Monsoon Wedding, Welcome etc. While we got to see his theatre experience in movies like Gully Boy where his emotions connected with us. He is surely one of the actors we can never get enough of.
