04) Rajeev Khandelwal โ Aamir (2008 )
Rajeeva Khandelwal
It's ironic that two of the most talked about performances of the decade come from two actors who have made a transition from television to big screen. We are talking about Ronit Roy andRajeev Khandelwal here. Rajeev is in fact very lucky to play a role which is performance oriented & author backed to the core. The role of Aamir is every actor's dream and Rajeev was destined to play this unassuming doctor who is put to test by bunch of nasty terrorists. We have seen many terrorist plots in the last decade and Aamir is arguably one of the most impactful movies. Aamiris the most memorable and striking character of them all, without any doubt. There are not enough dialogues for Aamir to express his despair and helplessness. Right from his awkward walk to his terror-stricken face he conveys a lot. Aamir's helplessness is transpired to the audience and we root for him from that moment onwards. There are not enough words to express the lyrical quality of his performance. In short, a killer performance!
