10 Worst Actors of Bollywood


We all have our list of top 10s. Top10 movies, top 10 books, top 10 actors, top 10 places, top 10 authors, etc, etc. In this blog I will list down my top 10 WORST ACTORS of Bollywood. Please note that the list is extempore so I may have missed some more deserving candidates. Please feel free to share your own list. And if by chance any of the names mentioned here is one of the favourites of any of the readers then my sincere apologies to them.
1.    Suniel Shetty: The guy is amazing. Except acting, he can do anything. See his acting prowess in films like Bhai, Rakshak. Watch him dance to the tune of Sundara Sundara and Hello, hello bol kar.  He takes the cake and the bakery too.  
2.   Deepak Parashar: Wow! In front of this guy Suniel Shetty is a master. DP is a pain in all the places. To say that he can’t act for nuts will be an insult to nuts. And I don’t wish to insult anybody or anything. 
3.   Anil Dhawan: He has acted opposite one of India ’s finest actresses, Jayaji. And this is his only claim to fame.
4.   Manoj Kumar: I have yet to see his face, so can’t comment on his expressions. He got better and better as he gained more and more experience. When I say better and better, I mean better and better in his non- existent acting abilities. See him in Clerk, Kalyug ki Ramayan and other such masterpieces where he single-handedly carries the movie to its grave.   
5.   Hemant Birje: Even the wooden cabinet in my house has an expression: a wooden one. But Birje is only wood.
6.   Rohan Kapoor: Who is he?
7.   Bharat Bhushan: Gosh! You name the actress and he has worked with them: Meenaji, Madhubalaji…was there such a dearth of actors in those days that BB had to be signed?
8.  Mukesh Khanna: A guy with the weirdest of expressions. See the way he makes faces while delivering dialogues. He is a must in the list.
9.   Uday Chopra: The best thing about him is his surname.
10.  Deepak Malhotra: He is super in Lamhe. Super-flop! 

Note: I haven’t considered sons of actors, otherwise Randhir Kapoor, Suniel Anand, Puru Raaj Kumar, Mimoh Chakraborty, all of them would have made the list.

My Mother named me Haider

My mother named me Haider so said Ali son of Abu Talib to Marhab when he said that his mother had named him Marhab. If only Marhab had recalled, at this juncture, what his mother would tell him when he was a child. ‘My son, you’ll be a great warrior. Your fame would spread throughout the Arab world. But keep in mind one thing. If in any battle you come face to face with a man named Haider, do not fight him. Just lay down your sword.’ If Marhab had paid heed to his mother’s advice, he wouldn’t have met the fate he met with in Khaiber. But he was high on ego; drunk on his strength and fame, he thought, how anyone could fight him. He was Marhab – how anyone could challenge his might? In every battle, Ali always introduced himself as Ali son of Abu Talib. But in Khaiber, he introduced himself as Haider because he was aware of what Marhab’s mother had told Marhab. This is sufficient evidence of Ali’s knowledge of the unknown. If in Khaiber Ali had introduced himself as Ali a...

The Lady in Red

Yesterday after my morning prayer, I went for my 30- minute walk. My wife did not accompany me because she preferred the warmth of the bed to the cold outside. Usually, she does. I did not take the path that I normally take every day. The road was deserted and not a soul was in sight. I walked briskly, determined to do a certain number of steps within the time that I had. It was dark and the wintry breeze was making me shiver. I thought of the cosiness of my bed and for a moment was tempted to abandon the walk and go back home. But commitment is commitment. So, I kept walking. When I reached the end of the walking trail, I turned left instead of right. I don’t know why I did it. I should have turned right because that’s where the walker’s path continues. On the left is an alley between two high-rise buildings. Before I could turn back, I spotted a lady smoking a cigarette. She was wearing a long, red gown and her lips were painted with blood-red lipstick. Her tired eyes had da...

Zaidis and Wastis

                                                         Many people believe that Zaidis and Wastis are two separate surnames. The truth is that it isn’t. Zaidis and Wastis hail from a place in Iraq called Wasit. Wasti is actually Wasiti but over time, it became Wasti. They are descended from the fourth Imam Ali bin Hussain, also known as Zain-ul-Abedin. His eldest son’s name was Zaid. Hence the name Zaidi. These people are Sayyeds meaning they can trace their ancestry to the Holy Prophet. In the 11 th century, Sayyid Abul Farah Al Hussaini Al Wasti (son of Syed Daud al Hussaini), came to India from Iraq, with his twelve sons, and most of the Zaidis and Wastis in India and Pakistan are their descendants. Let me clarify one point here. There are Zaidis who are not Wastis. They are those who believe that Zaid and not Mohammad Baqir ...
