Top 10 Bollywood action heroes
Alright, so Aamir Khan's going all buff and telling us that the upcoming Ghajini is his first action film. Clearly the actor's already in method acting mode when dealing with this film about memory loss, since he doesn't remember Ghulam, Earth, Sarfarosh, Mangal Pandey, Baazi or Raakh -- which all seemed pretty action-intensive roles to us, anyway.
Even if the shirtlessness just seems gratituous these days, Salman's bod hasn't always been just for show. The actor's frequently packed quite a punch, and looked realistic while at it.
The Krrishman had to be on the list, didn't he? And even if he's more dancer than fighter, it must be remembered that this superhero's also played a terrorist and a master criminal.
One of the single coolest moments in Hindi cinema is when Jackie Shroff is first seen in Parinda. He's played more cops than baddies, but Jaggu dada sure knows what he's doing.
Dude, he killed Mogambo. Not to mention the assorted bunch of thugs he'd routinely tackle with, plus the umpteen times he played some kind of deranged bhai. All machismo, all the way.
Bollywood's poster-child for bhai-roles, Dutt looks wicked good with a gun in hand -- and the gun looks totally at home. All's cool when Sanju's in charge, with or without circuit.
The industry's only martial arts stud. Kumar balances the kicks out with the guffaws nowadays, and it's all well and good. Just don't forget he can slap men with his feet. Oo-er.
What, you thought we wouldn't touch on *the* man who threatens to feast on the blood of his enemies? The only man who could be macho even in a skirt, Dharam paaji was always a shoo-in.
It might be contentious to place this man ahead of his distinguished daddy, but Sunny's been so darned prolific with juggling dacoits and battling Rajnikanthesque odds that he trumps Papaji.
The Angry Young Man himself, kiddos. Move over and take another line, because the deal with this superhero/renegade/porter is that the line starts from wherever this man places his size-9 chappal.

Still, here's hoping he just means ultraviolence. And while we wait for his action 'debut,' here's a look at the Hindi film industry's best action heroes:
10 Ajay Devgan
He's all actor-y now, but when he entered Bollywood he was the son of its premier stunt-director. And Veeru Devgan musta been proud of the way Ajay gruntingly tossed villains aside.
