No. I don't think Saif is over-rated. I think he is one actor who is rated just about right. He is a good actor but doesn't really have the star-power to pull the audience to the theaters. In spite of this he still got a National Award (completely undeserved IMO for a movie like Hum Tum) and has survived in this industry for more than 2 decades and continues to get great offers.
If there is smeone under-rated in BW , it is Ajay Devgan. Someone who has a National award as well as a 100 crore grosser, 4 hits in the last year, years of churning out great performances and delivering hits. But, no one talks about him .. like ever. I can't remember the last time I saw Ajay's name in the starting topic on IF... except for that Masand's column about him.

Atleast its not a sin to call him a "actor ".. Unlike others , he can act.

Defintely he is the most versatile actor among all the khans. I don't think he is underrated as he has his own position which makes him stand at par with superstars like Shahrukh and Salman and is also in league of fine actors like Ajay and Aamir.
I consider this as an advantage to him or else who gets a chance to work on a core commerical like Agent Vinod and A new age flick like Aarakhshan at the same time.

He is not under-rated at all...
aamir,salman, srk had made there mark from the beginning itself while for years all saif did was some forgettable movies and b grade projects...the guy was so down at a point that he played second lead to madhvan(rhtdm) and a newcomer hrithik(na tum jano na...)...it was only after dch which came like a decade after his debut that his carrier resurrected...
ranbir, imran has made there mark from the start as well...
yes he is doing some wonderful work right now and has grown tremendously as an actor(for which he is getting his due) but that dark decade of his carrier will always loom around...and may be thats not what the definition of a superstar is...

Kurbaan's review from a website which is highly appreciated by all recently

Folks, God Exists. God Exists!

No kidding.

In the name of Allah, the Holy Father and Lord Ram, we swear we saw it/him/her today in the form of Kurbaan's awful box office numbers.

Now, if this isn't God's work tell us what is.

Karan Johar's pathetic piece of shit Kurbaan has fared pitifully at the U.S. box office.

Horror of horrors, Kurbaan has done worse than New York, that other terrorist-centered Bollywood movie.

One of the most high-profile movies to come out of the Bollywood cesspool in recent months, Kurbaan had a surfeit of publicity thanks to the movie's principal stars shedding their clothes.

But even all the semi-nudity couldn't fool the people who quickly saw through the con-game of Kurbaan's producer (Karan Johar), director (Renzil D'Silva) and cast (Saifeena) - they were peddling dross dressed up as gold.

In its opening weekend November 20-22, 2009 at the U.S. box office, Kurbaan, which released in 83 theatres in the U.S., grossed a measly $403,678.

Guys, Kurbaan's opening weekend numbers are less than New York, less than Dostana, less than Chandni Chowk to China, less than Delhi 6 and just one-fourth of Love Aaj Kal.

Of course, it's to be expected. Kareena Kapoor is a jonah, the kiss of death for a movie.

Utterly worthless when clothed, Kareena Kapoor is insufferable when clotheless. What a disgusting actress.

As for Saif Ali Khan, the bozo went through the movie with one-expression pasted to his face.

Trash begets trash, right na.

Kurbaan came in No-20 at the box office and had an average gross of $4,864. By the way, the average gross for Kurbaan was less than the average gross for junk like Bhoothnath, Krazzy4, Heroes, Dil Bole Hadippa et al.

Hell, even Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, featuring two kids Imran khan and Genelia D'Souza' had an average gross of $6,218.

Sorry to interfere but a website that uses language like that for a film has 0 credibility [as highly appreciated as it may be]😊

hmmm.. Kurbaan may have made trashy business, but least the topic is a little more substantial than others movies!

yknow.. movies about like, a police inspector who has the hots for his bhabhi.. etc etc
