Bollywood Actresses Who's UN Agency In Screen Land – Actors
Shahid Kapoor
Shahid's brooding characters have made him the
Heath cliff of Bollywood. From Chup Chup Ke (2006) to Jab We Met (2007) to
Kaminey (2009), he's perfected the melancholic hero who finds redemption in
love. He made his debut in 2003 in Ishq Vishk, which earned him a Film fare Best
Male Debut Award. But several so-so films later, including Shikhar (2005) and
36 China Town (2006), Shahid still hadn't lived up to his full potential.
He started to come into his own in Vivah-his first
hit-in 2006, and he finally blossomed in the blockbuster Jab We Met in 2007.
Then he took his acting to a whole new level in 2009 in the edgy drama Kaminey,
playing a double role in which he shed his trademark boyishness and transformed
into two rugged, world-weary men. Following the amicable end of his three-year
relationship with Bollywood actresses Kareena Kapoor in 2007, he has been linked to actresses Vidya
Balan and Priyanka Chopra and tennis star Sania Mirza.
Saif Ali Khan
The son of a nawab (an Indian prince), Saif is the
heir apparent to the royal houses of Bhopal and Pataudi (princely states in
India). His father and grandfather were captains of India's national cricket
team. And with his devastating looks and solid acting chops, Saif has become
prominent in his own right. However, his career was slow to take off. He debuted
in 1992 and had some early successes, but he mostly floundered throughout the
90s.
He started to gain traction in supporting roles in Dil
Chahta Hai (2001) and Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003). His 2005 film Salaam Namaste with
Preity Zinta was a huge hit, and he won accolades for his work in Parineeta
(2005), Omkara (2006), and Eklavya (2007). He started his own production
company in 2009 and its first film, Love Aaj Kal, in which Saif starred
opposite Deepika Padukone, was a major hit. At the age of 21, he married a
woman 12 years his senior. The couple had two children and divorced in 2004
after 13 years of marriage. He is currently involved with actress Kareena
Kapoor. Saif's mother, a former actress, is head of the Indian film censorship
board. His two sisters, Saba Ali Khan and Soha Ali Khan, are also actors.
John Abraham
A model-turned-actor who's equal parts sexy and sweet,
John has long been regarded as Bollywood's favorite eye candy-a position he
seemed to cement in Dostana (2008), in which he famously emerged from the ocean
Ursula Andres-style-a shimmering Adonis in tight swim trunks.
But John surprised everyone a few months later with
his astonishingly strong performance in the terrorist-thriller New York (2009),
which proved he could take on serious roles and look good doing it. He made his
debut in 2003 in Jism (which means "Body" in Hindi), opposite screen
siren Indian actress Bipasha Basu, and the two became a couple off-screen. They've been
together ever since (despite rumors that they both have strayed), making them
the hottest couple in Bollywood-or anywhere for that matter.
Ranbir Kapoor
Ranbir is the grandson of the granddaddy of Indian
film, actor Raj Kapoor. And he's the son of actor Rishi Kapoor and the cousin
of actress Kareena Kapoor. He made his debut in 2007 in Saawariya, opposite
newcomer Sonam Kapoor (no relation). The film featured a racy scene in which he
danced in nothing but a towel. His next film was the romantic comedy Bachna Ae
Haseeno (2008), which means "Beware, O beautiful ones." Beware,
indeed, because this babe with a mischievous smile is already setting hearts on
fire as he scorches his way to the top. He is currently dating his Bachna Ae
Hasseno co-star, Deepika Padukone.
