Actors from South are appearing in Bollywood movies nowadays (Surya, Prithviraj, now Dhanush). Actors like Madhavan have been successful as supporting actors in Bollywood films (Maddy had solo hit in TWM recently).

Females from South have made it as superstars in Bollywood. Only male actors are yet to make a mark as main leads.

Which actor do you think can make it in Bollywood? And get acceptance from audience across India?

I want Dhanush to make it big in BW! He has immense talent, and Ranjhanna impressed me!

I'd pick Surya. I think he's good looking and talented.

He can take care of his dark complexion (sorry but audience does focus on skin colour) the way other actors did (SRK wasn't that gora chitta either when he started out).

I believe he should get more films and he can definitely make a mark.

Dhanush has NO chance in Hindi films. I am sorry but it's obvious. Talent notwithstanding. ARR's music is the only thing that can save Raanjhanaa. (I am not saying this due to his skin colour.)

I don't understand as when any big star from south does a Main Hero lead film, it always sink at BO, referring to some current generation stars...

No doubt they have huge appeal in South, 1st Day Housefull, but when they do Hindi film, it is not that much big...

I want Suriya to make big in BW, proper film, not RGV kind... Mahesh Babu... Both have immense Mass appeal, both can rock big in BW.

Yeah Radhe ji. Mahesh Babu seems to have potential to make it in Bollywood too. He was good in those Thums Up ads also which ran nationally.

His dubbed films are pretty popular on TV channels.

He has the looks only I hope he can get his Hindi diction right if he steps in Bollywood - because that is the only problem of actors from South. They have a typical accent which makes their dialogues sound weird.

Hailla... u remember me.... 😆

Diction becomes problem for them coz they give their 100% in improvising it, more stress & they sound awkward sometimes... i think they shud forget everything & try to be what they r in south movies... Bindaas Style n Attitude can cover up for some mistakes in language.
