Maddy !! You're absolutely right ... And also, wht is the criterion for this list ?? Is it great acting ... Or box-office collections ... Or mass appeal .... Or salary .... Cos when you say top actor, it has to be a combination of all these things .... And when you talk abt great acting, it becomes purely subjective .... For me, Rajinikanth is the best actor ... And for you all, it might be different ... So it is kinda hard to put a list with all these different permutations .....
bayarea,
rajnikant is a good actor. Definitely I agree.
The quesiton is DOES HE BOIL DOWN TO TOP 10 best actors in india.
We have wonderful WELL KNOWN actors better than rajnikant.
My list is PURELY on
MASS APPEAL + talent
SP,
What % have you given for Appeal and Talent.
And is appeal on linguistic basis.
1) If you take national appeal, Shivaji Ganeshan, Kamal hassan and the 2 M's will not score much. Then what appeal does Nana patekar, Nasrudeen shah hold. They cannot get people to cinema on their own
2) If it is region specific then Mohanlal, Mamooty has more appeal in their home turf than others in their specific places.
Are you saying Raj Kapoor has more Talent and Appeal than Big B. Then Amir has enormous advantage over the other Khan and he is not that behind in Appeal. If you know Rang de Bhasanthi was released with 240 shows in Mumbai alone.
wELL i GAVE a mixed percentage.
Shivaji topped the list cause, INSPITE OF lack of national appeal, he deserves that position, as he, considering the era he was in has achieved quite a lot.
KH lacks national appeal too. YET he is unique so he stands in his place in top 5.
Two Ms are rightly placed towards the end.
Rajkapoor YES DEF WAS MORE TALENTED. We need to consider his era, his areas of expertise etc. RUSSIANS were crazy after his movie. In those days he achieved international fame.
DEFINITELY FOR ME, Rajkapoor is ahead of BIG B.
well, SP, i really cant see any mass appeal for shivaji in the whole country.....secondly, how do u calculate talent?....i think Mohan lal is the best ever actor in Indian cinema history...can u prove me wrong??Quote:

see, it really pains to see mohanlal and aamir khan below kamal and raj kapoor....hey no probs man, i know it is ur personal opinion.....carry on.....
SP,
Initially I didn't opposing your list as its your choice but later when you claimed that "My list is PURELY on MASS APPEAL + talent" then it needs to be accurate.

Yes, you have
for Kamal and Big B its 50-50,
for the 2 M's, SRK its 20-80 in favour of Appeal,
for Nana and Shah 80-20 in favour of Talent,
and
for Rajkapoor and Shivaji 20-20-60 in favour of era.
Amir seems to have been added as an after thought. (The Rang De Basanthi effect)

Fair enough, that's entirely your prerogative.
