Comedy is, supposedly, the formulaic approach most directors take if they're aiming for some good business

MANY actors have tried their hand in these movies, big and small, and some have proven their skills better than others..

which actors do you guys think actually do well in comedy? Who do you think is well suited for this genre?

I personally think Boman Irani and Paresh Rawal can nail comedy in their sleep. It looks SO natural when they crack jokes in movies!

granted, I think they've made a lot of horrible script choices, by acting in movies that intended to make the audience laugh but, in my opinion, didn't deliver very classy comedy

Boman Irani, Ritesh Deshmukh, Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, Anupam Kher, Sharat Saxena are a few that come to mind! As for lead actors I think Aamir is good...Akshay needs to stop his buffonery..Ranbir was fantastic in Ajab Prem!

Paresh Rawal definitely. He single handedly elevated the first Hera Phera to a whole new level. Before that we were ruthlessly subjected to crappy Govinda movies. 🤢

Many will disagree, but I think Neil Nitin Mukesh has a good comedy actor inside him ahaha

there were some funny situations in New York, when he made me LOL, with his pairing with Irfan Khan
