Top 10 Indian Actors

I agree Mohanlal is a good actor but De Niro is into a different league. I have seen only few movies of Lal that too comercial movies only, but i have seen De Niro which had variety in every other movies to name a few Raging bull, taxi driver, heat , Good fellas , once upon a time in america, casino and cape fear where he proved his versatality...... Comparing indian actor with holly actor is utter crap .The audience is totally different and the kinda movie they make is totally different the same movie cannot be made in indian cinemas .



Thanks for ur list of Lal movie :o

if you had seen only a few movies of lal , how can you assess him? after seeing 'vanaprastham' on can film festival , one famous french critic hugged lal and said to him that 'you are born on the wrong part of the world' . its not a difficult task to compare with him with deniro only due to the fact that deniro was a hollywood actor. i agree the audience is totally different , the kind of movies we are making here can not be made in there also. when their critics can admit his capabilities , i don't know why some people here hesitates to do that.

in my opinion mohan lal is comparable to de niro ... but he is not versatile like de niro!....i like mohan lal...but guess he lacks versatility!.

he does the roles which fits his age and language...he dint do more versatile roles like kamal!

but so natural...he acts with his eyes...only eyes

---

if lal is not versatile, no actor in india can't be called as versatile. what do you mean by versatile roles like kamal? i think you want to mention the roles in 'indian'... so you had seen most of the films of kamal and hadn't seen of mohan lal. go and see 'pavithram' , 'lalsalaam' , 'padamudra'.........

I am not saying Mohanlal acting is bad or worst.I am against comparing the actors of two different genres.

here is mohan lal,

1, thalavattom - a mentally retarded patient . lal did it so easily with sweet manarisms.

2, bharatham - a classical singer who has to hide the death of his elder brother from his family , national award winning performance.

3, kireedom - an innocent young man who has to become a criminal due to circumstances.

4, vanaprastham - as a kathakali artist who is an utter failure in his personal life, another award winning performance.

5, sadayam - as a painter who is hanged to death for the murder of 2 little girls , terrific performance from the actor.

6, devasuram - as a feudal landlord with his own manarisms.

7, kalapani- as a freedom fighter who is imprisoned in kalapani.

8, pavithram- another splendid performance as a brother lives for his younger sister. and turns mad when the sister begins to avoid him. plays as a young man and a middle aged man.

9, kilukkam, - as a tourist guide in ooty. excellent comedy.

10, padamudra - in a double role - superb performance.

11, rajavinte magan - as an underworld don , an action classic.

12, thanmatra - as an Alzheimer's patient , great performance.

13, manichitratazhu - as dr. sunny, an eccentric psychatrist.

14, nadodikattu - as a cid , example for the splendid comic timing.

15, mukham - as a police officer with a third eye.

16, kamaladalam - as a dancer who is addicted to alcohol.

17, chenkol - the sequel of kireedom , which shows how the society reacts to the return of sethumadhavan from jail.

18, iruvar - as the great M G R, no need for description.

19, mayamayooram - in a double role, the important thing is that no gimmicks in make up, still he lives as the 2 characters.

20, aryan- an innocent brahmin youth becomes a gangster.

he he this looks funny, then we can list all the kamal movie except for few movies :roll:

sanju.... :lol:

i can give similar list for rajni....as a don,as an innocent man,etc...

see how i have listed kamal's movies..

a blind man,an old man,a lady,a dwarf,a misogynist....

in all ur films u listed ...mohan lal is a young man with similar kind of family emotions!

he normally moves around the family drama...kireedam,baratham,etc..

i have seen manichithirathazhu...not a great performance... regarding padamuthra and kilukkam....i can list all the kamal movies o this category!

u have given a list with some good performances...not versatility!

imho
kireedam,baratham,vanaprastham,iruvar are great performances....

regarding thalavattam......i have watched it.. i guess its not a splendid performance... he did it in a childish way....prabhu in the tamil version of thalavattam had given a equally nice performance!
