MUMBAI: There are thousands of actors who play supporting roles to the protagonists, give the film a new lease of credibility, and are as, if not more, talented than the main leads. However, they do not receive as much fame and stardom as they deserve. In our Casting Call segment, we present a list of some of the most significant Indian television, web, and Bollywood actors who we hope eventually get their due in the future.

'I want to play challenging roles that help me grow as an actor and allow me to create a benchmark. I'm looking forward to playing the of an antagonist if given a chance,' he said in a statement.
When asked about his casting experience, he revealed, 'I have never faced the casting couch. Every actor has his or her own struggle while making their place in the entertainment industry.
