Many come to mind.
Raveena Tandon: Hot property after Mohra especially but ruined her peak years over affair with Akki and returned only to do films with Govinda and then some art films for respect.
Aishwarya Rai: YES. She had beauty, poise, grace, popularity but somehow she couldn't become the top draw. The affairs with Salman and Vivek dented her prospects.
HR : Agreed he was once tipped to be one man rule and even surpass previous superstars because he was the first complete package type hero - looks, physique, talent, style, dance skills. But he just got tagged as one of the stars.
Kumar Gaurav : Overnight sensation after debut, praised for films like Naam. But vanished completely.
Sanjay Dutt: Never been a greater example of great potential gone waste. Criminal waste. He was pioneer of style, brawn and was talented. But just as he was about to zoom to the top he hit rock bottom.
Vivek Oberoi: Talk of career suicide!
Bipasha Basu: She was hailed almost like next Zeenat Amaan after Raaz but I don't think she made much mark.
Priyanka Chopra: YES again. She's given hits and good performances but is somehow never the first name either in best actors lists or top actresses.
Juhi Chawla: Many wrong choices. Otherwise she could be on top.
Rani: She was on top by 2005 but went downhill too soon. Not that she is not doing well but she could have done better.
Smita Patil: Such a body of work in such a short span of time! I think she could have done great work and held record for most National Award wins had she remained alive.
Divya Bharti is overrated IMO. Her acting and dialogue delivery were weak. But then who knows if she could have improved and matured into a fine actress?
