Rishi Kapoor as Rauf Lala

Amongst all the contemporary actors, I have seen that the ones from the Kapoor family have always been under-estimated for their acting ability.  Rishi Kapoor is probably one of most under-estimated of the actors of his age.

I was pleasantly surprised by his role as Rauf Lala in Agneepath.  He was so convincing that one just hated every moment of his presence!   Read his interview which is fairly interesting.
