List them

One who barely get/got BO success but may have won certain set of audience. Or the one media never hypes as a great director coz they're too busy licking butt of popular people

I say here is my top 5

Vikramaditya Motwane - Lootera & Udaan
Sriram Raghavan - Ek Haseena Thi & Johnny Gaddaar
Tigmanshu Dhulia - Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, PaanSinghTomar & Haasil
Nagesh Kukunoor - Dor, Iqbal, Lakshmi
Dibakar Banerjee - Khosla Ka Ghosla, Oye Lucky Lucky Oye & Shanghai

Abbas Tyrewala. Jhoota Hi Sahi wasn't that bad, the love story could've been better with better leads but the friends angle - omar, sid, the two gay guys, aaliya, aaliya's boyfriend were amazing. ❤️ Almost like he got wrote off after this film. He's doing something for Bang Bang this year (i think dialogues) so lets see if he's back in the game.

Vikramaditya Motwane is ignored by the film fraternity atleast - Lootera. ❤️ I thought he would win best director awards, thought he did a far more commendable job than Rakeysh Mehra.

Vikramaditya Motwane for sure..Two gems like Udaan & Lootera..And how about Abhishek Kapoor? I loved Rock On & KPC but he isn't really hyped much..And not sure if Balki is underrated but he is a brilliant director..I have loved all his films till date..Oh and his wife Gauri Shinde too 😆

How is Vikramaditya Motwane underrated? He always gets great reviews and is rated highly.

I think Amole Gupte and Nagesh Kukunoor are two.

His films get good reviews,but appreciated mostly on IF

No one knows Lootera in real life which is sad

Shubhash Kapoor(Jolly LLB)

Anurag Kashyap(GOW proves it)

Umesh Shukla( i loved Dhondte reh jaoge. It was funny. he gained appreciation threogh OMG though)

Neeraj Pandey.

OMG director.

Sriram (in terms of recognition).

I don't think Motwane is underrated.

Nobody is underdated. They all will get their due. All renowned directors have certain amount of work to reach where they are...One film and people expect public or media to put them above veteran directors! not gonna happen 😆

I mean have they really ever gotten their due

Khiladi

Baazigaar

Soldier

Chori chori chupke chupke

Humraaz

Aitraaz

So many hit films get they are never counted amongst the biggest of filmmakers . They have work with many stars . They have no awards either

They made the thriller genre what is in bollywood

And if it wasn't for them priyanka Chopra wouldn't be the sex goddess she is . Before aitraaz who was she

That one scene about sexual satisfaction alone was awesome
👏 👏 👏

Where's the respect
