Ajay
Devgn
2020
began
on
a
high
note
with
Ajay
Devgn's
brilliant
portrayal
of
the
unsung
Maratha
hero
Tanhaji
Malusare
in
Om
Raut's
historical
film
Tanhaji:
The
Unsung
Warrior.
The
actor
brought
in
the
right
amount
of
intensity
and
valour
in
his
100th
film.
No
wonder,
the
audience
couldn't
stop
singing
'Raa
Ra-Ra-Raa'
when
they
left
the
cinema
halls.
Saif
Ali
Khan
The
seasoned
actor
proved
yet
again
that
nobody
makes
playing
bad
on
screen
look
as
effortlessly
as
him.
Saif
who
essayed
the
role
of
the
main
antagonist
Udaybhan
in
Tanhaji:
The
Unsung
Warrior, succeeded
in
winning
our
hearts
with
his
portrayal
of
a
character
who
has
his
own
set
of
quirks.
His
next
release
Jawaani
Jaaneman wasn't
a
money-spinner
at
the
box
office.
But,
Saif
still
managed
to
make
us
go
'Ole-Ole'
with
his
flamboyant
act.
Amitabh
Bachchan
With
his Dumbledore-beard,
protruding
nose,
thick
glasses
and
a
hunchback-walk,
the
thespian
left
us
in
splits
with
his
adorable
antics
in
Shoojit
Sircar's
dramedy
Gulabo
Sitabo.
Ayushmann
Khurrana
Over
the
years,
this
Chandigarh
ka
munda
has
become
a
dependable
name
when
it
comes
to
playing
hatke
characters
on
screen.
Ayushmann
delivered
an
impressive
performance
as
a
gay
man
in
Shubh
Mangal
Zyada
Savdhaan, followed
by
another
clap
worthy
act
in
Gulabo
Sitabo
in
which
he
held
his
own
against
the
'Shahenshah
of
Bollywood'
Amitabh
Bachchan.
Rajkummar
Rao
Rajkummar
Rao
had
two
releases
this
year-
Anurag
Basu's
Ludo
and
Hansal
Mehta's
Chhalaang.
Be
it
playing
quintessential
Bollywood
hero
straight
out
of
a
masala
potboiler
in
Ludo
or
a
wastrel
who
finds
out
his
true
calling
in
Chhalaang,
Rao
shone
bright
in
both
the
parts.
Pankaj
Tripathi
Watching
Pankaj
Tripathi
play
a
supportive
father
to
Janhvi
Kapoor's
character
in
Gunjan
Saxena:
The
Kargil
Girl, made
us
give
our
dads
the
tightest
hug.
The
same
man
was
complete
fireworks
in
Anurag
Basu's
Ludo
and
left
us
hooting
for
him.
Ishaan
Khatter
Ishaan
Khatter's
performance
in
Maqbool
Khan's
Khaali
Peeli
was bole
toh...alag
hi-level
ka! After
doing
a
star-crossed
love
story
like
Dhadak,
the
young
lad
surprised
everyone
with
his
bang-on
tapori
act
in
this
film.
Ishaan
also
won
rave
reviews
for
his
performance
in
Mira
Nair's
A
Suitable
Boy.
Sharad
Kelkar
2020
proved
to
be
a
great
year
for
Sharad
Kelkar
as
the
actor
won
applauses
for
his
acting
chops
in
two
films-
Ajay
Devgn's
Tanhaji:
The
Unsung
Warrior
and
Akshay
Kumar's
Laxmmi.
As
the
warrior
king
Chhatrapati
Shivaji
Maharaj
in
Tanhaji, Kelkar's
performance
spoke
volumes.
In
Akshay
Kumar's Laxmmi,
it
was
Sharad
Kelkar
who
turned
out
to
be
a
show-stealer
with
his
sensitive
portrayal
of
transgender.
Kunal
Kemmu
We
were
gobsmacked
when
Kunal
Kemmu
who
always
makes
us
go
'ha-ha'
with
his
impeccable
comic
timing,
turned
bad
for
Mohit
Suri's
revenge
thriller
Malang.
Well,
we
would
love
to
watch
him
pull
off
some
grey
shades
again!
Special
Mention-
Late
Irrfan
Khan
Even
in
a
lazily-written
film
like
Angrezi
Medium,
Irrfan
Khan
warmed
the
cockled
of
our
hearts
with
his
nifty
acting
skills.
He
made
us
laugh,
he
made
us
cry.
Who
knew
back
then
that
this
would
be
his
last
film
as
an
actor!
Special
Mention-
Late
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
Late
actor
Sushant
Singh
Rajput
turned
out
to
be
the
real
star
in
his
swan
song
Dil
Bechara
which
released
this
year.
With
a
heart-wrenching
performance
for
the
last
time,
the
actor
bid
us
goodbye
too
soon.
