Mukesh Khanna and Ronit Roy are wannabe Amitabh Bachchans of TV. They even copied his style of speaking. Especially Mukesh was way too inspired by Amitabh and his voice modulation, eyes and face expressions.
Rajeev Khandelwal reminded of young Rajesh Khanna when he did Kahin toh Hoga. He has similar face cut as young Rajesh Khanna and probably similar craze among women.
The guy who played Tantiya Tope in Jhansi ki Rani reminds me of Aamir. He has even mimicked Aamir in past in some comedy shows and has a wannabe Aamir hangover.
Shweta Tiwari was wannabe Aishwarya of TV and copied her a lot. Especially her Paro avatar in Devdas.
Many many romantic show actors try to copy SRK on TV. Almost every other guy in last 2 decades has tried to ape SRK in romantic scenes and shows and every romantic heroine tries to do a Kajol in KKHH or DDLJ.
I think Karan Patel copies SRK a lot. Even copied his Dilwale beard look.
Divyanka Tripathi tries to copy Juhi Chawla a LOT. She has a visible Juhi hangover IMO.
There is this guy who played Vansh in Uttaran and he clearly seemed inspired by Hrithik and copied his Guzaarish look. The guy who played Gautam in Kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi also used to initially copy Hrithik of KNPH.
Pulkit Samrat used to copy Ranbir Kapoor a LOT when he entered industry and I think he still subconsciously apes Ranbir or models himself after Ranbir.
The rest are having own personality or inspirations. Plenty copied Salman after Dabangg and did that bhaiya ji act or tried to ape his Tere Naam act or HSSH, HAHK, MPK act.
Most TV actors do copy Bollywood stars and lack originality, which is irritating.
There was an actress in a Zee TV serial who used to copy Deepika a lot and even looked like her from certain angles. I forgot her name though.
