Not at all, at least to me. I can't think of a single film where I've found over-acting funny or even necessary. An actor can do justice to any role without resorting to loud, garish facial expressions. And not overacting doesn't necessarily mean a restrained performance. An actor can be free and uninhibited while still staying in character. Anushka Sharma in BBB is a perfect example of that. Many actresses would have ended up overacting in that role, but Anushka was spontaneous and fun while still, remaining in character.

exaggerated does not have to equal overacting, but i've seen that concept get exploited too many times

Yes, when the roles seems to require overacting then its good

But if a specific actor or actress overacts in every movie they do as part of their "craft", then its bad
