Today, BollyCurry brings to you a multi-talented personality; an actor, screenwriter, director and social activist, as he celebrates his 46th birthday this 27th of July. We talk of course of none other than the underrated Rahul Bose.

Bose was born to a Bengali father and a Punjabi mother, and this has always reflected in his writings as he makes it a point to blend the cultures and emotions of his upbringing.

Bose made his debut as an actor with the English project, The Perfect Murder, in the year 1988. After his first release, he worked on many more projects abroad where he even contributed with quality writing and direction as well as acting. Regarding his Bollywood career, one can remember seeing him in critically acclaimed movies such as Mr. and Mrs. Iyer opposite Konkona Sen Sharma, Jhankar Beats, Chameli which opposite Kareena Kapoor, Pyar Ke Side Effects opposite Mallika Sherawat, Kuch Love Jaisa and as an antagonist in Kamal Hasan's Tamil hit, Vishwaroopam, which was also released in Hindi. There is already a planned sequel of Vishwaroop of which Bose will continue to play a major role.

Though the majority of Bose's Bollywood films were not largely publicized or targeted for mainstream cinema, he made a point to work in art films which contained an element of quality rather than entertainment. This factor has ensured his films do well at film festivals and which also resulted in him being awarded both nationally and internationally.

To celebrate his birthday, here is a mini playlist of his biggest hits:

Tu Aashiqui Hai - Jhankaar Beats
Dheere Dheere - Shaurya
Jaane Kya - Pyaar Ke Side Effects
Ban Jaiye - Silsiilay
Bhaage Re Mann - Chameli

With this, we conclude our words wishing the amazing personality that is Rahul Bose a wonderful birthday. Many happy returns of the day and may he have more successful years to come.
