Entertainment News: Time, as they say, spares no one. Be it a leading man, a comic genius, or a villain who ruled the '90s screen space, every star eventually faces the mirror of age. A video released by Rakesh Act features 20 such actors whose faces once echoed in Indian households through countless iconic roles. Some have aged gracefully, others shockingly, and a few will leave you wondering, “Is this really him?”
The list includes names like Dinesh Hingoo (85), Johnny Lever (67), Ashok Saraf (78), Raza Murad (74), Prem Chopra (89), and Asrani (84)—artists who were once the heartbeat of supporting characters and comic interludes. These names didn’t always headline posters, but they made the story memorable. Whether as sidekicks, school principals, mafia dons or quirky uncles, their on-screen aura lives rent-free in our minds.
Some actors, like Mahesh Manjrekar (66) and Mohnish Bahl (63)—both known for their collaborations with Salman Khan—have held onto their signature style even today. While Bahl now embraces a more understated, mature look, Manjrekar sports his trademark sharpness and silver-haired swag. Surprisingly, the video wrongly cites Bahl’s age as 70, but fans were quick to correct that detail.
Others, like Rakesh Bedi (70) and Tiku Talsania (70), continue to be active in the OTT space, appearing in comedy shows and nostalgia-driven projects. The transformation of once-fiery villains like Aniruddh Agarwal (75) and Deepak Shirke (67) was among the most surprising for viewers, showing how drastically years can sculpt a face and a persona.
What’s fascinating is not just the aging but the grace with which most of them have accepted time. Some, like Kulbhushan Kharbanda (80) and Mohan Joshi (77), have embraced a calm, minimalistic presence. Others like Chandrachur Singh (56) are still waiting for that perfect comeback moment—one viral role away from a second innings.
The video doesn’t just play on shock value. It celebrates these actors for the decades they’ve given to Indian cinema. Fans in the comments flooded it with heartfelt memories, dialogues, and moments associated with these names. For a generation, they weren’t just characters—they were family, teachers, goons, and fathers all in one.
