Who has been typecast in Bollywood? - Page 2

Oh I never said anything about that. Clearly her role in Black, Yuva, Veer Zaara etc were far more superior than her other roles. They were much stronger, much more power packed! I'm def not denying that. But I don't think any two roles were the same.

I'll leave it up to Rani about what she wants to do and what films she wants to do. Because its not up to me to decide. But yes I will always stand by her side as a true and devoted fan! :)

Emraan, Kangana, Bipasha, recently Salman and Akshay

YES! Emraan Hashmi = Serial Kisser Roles!

Some actors can play the same characters differently and can rock at it. But others grow tired of fiding different characters to play but still they act in the same way while playing those characters.. The biggest example is Aishwarya rai.. no matter how many different roles she plays the icyness the coldness never goes from her acting.. barring a few of her roles.. Others like Hashmi, Kangana do get typecasted.. but they rock at what they do. As there is a saying jack of all trades master of none.. some times its good to master something..

^^^ This discussion is on typecasting, not acting abilities; the two are related yet very different things.😊

^^ Typecasted in what?? Acting right.. not playing golf..lol.. so i said i don't mind celebs that get typecasted.. i don't think that is offtopic.. but if it is then the mods can tell me. :)

Keep in mind that this is based on the majority of movies they do, not ALL the movies. I'm sure there are more actors but this is it for now. 😊

madamoiselle, ofcourse you're right, they are intertwined but my point was if we are discussing that an actor has the same expressions in whatever role that she plays then we are commenting on their acting abilities right, not typecasting right? the question was which actors are typecasted in Bollywood which is what I pointed out in my post.

I do get that you were trying to explain that typecasting doesn't have to be a bad thing if the person is good at doing it (e.g Katrina can play the perfect bimbo, Emran can play the perfect sex addict , SRK can play the perfect loverboy etc etc) so yeah I don't want mods to warn you or anything like that. Sorry if it came off like that 😊
