If there are 10 different movies with 10 different roles, Pankaj Tripathi is the only actor who could nail all of them. Holding the power and status of god to his people, he expresses his weak points with equal brilliance. Tripathi is one of those very rare actors, who talk a lot just with the expressions.
2. Nawazuddin Siddiqui – Sacred Games (Netflix)
Nawazuddin Siddiqui as Ganesh Gaitonde will go down the books as one of the most devilish characters ever written. He is not in the zone that’s just dark, he portrays the character with every bit of his soul & jumps between the zones.
3. Saif Ali Khan – Sacred Games (Netflix)
Saif Ali Khan as a jaded policeman is commendable in Anurag Kashyap’s Sacred Games. He doesn’t say much but his expressions do the trick. Also, he has got the Punjabi accent somewhat accurate.
4. R. Madhavan – Breathe (Amazon Prime)
The story of Breathe revolves around a father who kills organ donors to save the life of his son who needs a heart transplant surgery. R, Madhavan nails the role of this father with his varied set of expressions. Directed by Mayank Sharma, Breathe is an eight-episode gritty psychological thriller which also features Sapna Pabbi and Neelima Kulkarni.
