I've seen the craze on this site for both these actors and they both are certainly overrated. They both resemble each other a lot. They both left their respective mediums in which they were popular for bollywood.

I find Fawad quite good but Barun is below average according to me but his fan following is huge so there must be something in him. Please vote.

Barun doesn't have many fans in the Bollywood section.

That's like saying who's better, the guy who plays Rick Forrester on Bold and the Beautiful or the guy that plays Walter White on Breaking Bad. Apples and oranges. One is an actor from a soap opera, the other is an actor from an episodic show. The acting required of both is different because of the medium. Soap operas require histrionics and melodrama from their characters which is what I assume Barun is known for. Fawad on the other hand hasn't done a soap opera so his acting has been subtle so far, as would one hope from an episodic series.

None of them.
Fawad should go back home and make good dramas/films and try experimenting with roles. IMO, he has made a really bad decision which can completely ruin his potential as an actor. He is self-destructive, plain and simple.
Barun is a bad actor, sorry. He was marginally better in that Sanchi-Shravan show, pretty average in IPK. Also, Fawad doesn't have a fraction of fans which Barun does. Just because they don't come here, doesn't mean he doesn't have them. On IF, that is.

@Carrot - Wait for sometime😆

Result shall tell you lol.

@Dexter - But whatever i have seen of Barun, he just mumbles some crap inside his mouth. His speech isn't clear. And he isn't even a looker according to me. Too oily and shabby. About acting the ppl who have watched him closely can say.

@Star girl - I agree with you. Barun guy is seriously overrated. Infact all the heroes of these mills and boons kind of serials get famous. Big deal! Eh?
And FK is good. Not exceptional.

No Dexy. Barun is known for manhandling 101.
You won't understand unless you watch.
It's a Gul Khan thing.

Plus Fawad might just go back to doing what he is good at. But i doubt whether Barun shall be accepted back because won't producers by now have lost faith in him that he can quit his shows if he gets bored? But then who wouldn't want to cash in on the huge fandom?😆
