Top 10 Indian Actors of all Time

10 = Sivaji Ganesan





Sivaji Ganesan may not be as par with other super stars in the ranking in terms of commercial success. I am ranking him simply because of the variety of roles played by him from King to Beggar, From action role to comedy role. He was probably the only super star from South India who never had a particular image. He is priced as the university of acting by the Tamil actors.One of the finest actors in India who did not get deserved recognition.


10 = Dhlip Kumar





Kumar has starred in films of the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s and 1980s. He was the first actor to receive a Filmfare Best Actor Award and holds the record for most number of Filmfare Awards won for that category. The evergreen actor is regarded as one of the best actors to have performed on silver screen in Hindi movies. Having more than hundred films to his credit, the splendid actor is an immutable star of the glamorous industry.

4 - Aamir Khan





He is the one who has given back to back record breaking movies in box office collection (Gajni and 3 Idiots). That is why he is ranked higher though he is still in the middle of his acting career.
