1. Pankaj Tripathi: Pankaj Tripathi, one of the most versatile actors, has been a part of a lot of big-ticket movies but not many people know about him. Be it 'Newton', 'Bareilly Ki Barfi' or 'Gangs Of Wasseypur', Tripathi with his phenomenal acting did justice to each character he took on.

2. Deepak Dobriyal: 'Omkara' actor Deepak Dobriyal is one of the finest and the most underrated actors in Bollywood. Honestly, had the goofy Pappi Ji not helped his friend R. Madhavan in his love story with Kangana Ranaut, we would have never got 'Tanu Weds Manu'. In 'Hindi Medium' while we all loved Irrfan Khan, the fact that Deepak gave a powerful performance and made his presence felt throughout the movie cannot be ignored.

3. Vijay Raaz: Abhishek Bachchan's 'Run' wasn't really a commercial success at the box office and most of us might not even remember a movie of this name is made. But those who remember the movie, I am sure they only know it for Vijay Raaz and his renowned 'kauwa biryani'. It also goes without saying that he was one of the best things about 'Delhi Belly', 'Dedh Ishqiya' and 'Welcome', although he was a supporting actor.

4. Manav Kaul: All those who have seen Vidya Balan's movie 'Tumhari Sulu', the name Manav Kaul might be in your memories. Actor and Director Manav Kaul even won the Best Supporting Actor Award for the same. He is now gearing up for another big-ticket release 'Ghoul', Netflix's first Indian supernatural series.

5. Anand Tiwari: Anand Tiwari, who has movies like 'Go Goa Gone', 'Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!', 'Udaan', 'Aisha' and 'Kites' in his kitty, might sound like a new name in the industry, but he's actually one of the most talented actors. He also directed Vicky Kaushal's popular movie on Netflix, 'Love Per Square Foot'.

6. Pavan Malhotra: Out of all these names, Pavan Malhotra is probably the most popular one in this list. In fact, we've seen him in movies like 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', 'Jab We Met', 'Wazir', 'Rustom' and 'Children of War'; but how many of us remember this brilliant actor by his name?

7. Brijendra Kala: Brijendra Kala is another talent who deserves more recognition that what he's getting now. While most of us, including me, remember him through his performances in 'Jab We Met', 'PK' and 'Paan Singh Tomar'; it's shocking that barely anyone knows his name.

8. Tillotoma Shome: We've all seen the Tata Namak ad starring Konkana Sen Sharma. We even laugh at the concept and feel bad for the woman who either gets shot up in the sky or gets brutally dropped underground. That woman is Tillotoma Shome, who has been a part of movies like 'Children of War', 'A Death In The Gunj', 'Qissa', 'Hindi Medium' and 'Tasher Desh' to name a few. It's needless to say that she deserves more recognition that what she's getting now.

9. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub: He was Shah Rukh Khan's partner-in-crime in 'Raees', Dhanush's best friend in 'Raanjhanaa', gave a bike ride to Kangana and got acquainted with her in 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns'. He even played the antagonist Manu Sharma in 'No One Killed Jessica'. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub is a face we've seen in a lot of movies, but sadly not many people know him by name.
