Talk:List of Indian male film actors/Archive 1

This name
this name list main siddharth malhotra ka name nahi hai

old post
I have been working on the Cinema of India and Bollywood pages, both of which had long lists of actors and actresses. It seemed like a good idea to move the lists OFF the pages and merge them on their own page. Putting actors from various regional industries on one page seemed like a good idea, because there's overlap between the industries. The "active in more than one regional cinema" category reflects that.

There are other Indian actor pages out there, they just need to be merged in. Non-Bollywood actors are slighted at the moment, these lists need to be filled in. Lots of work to do.

Bollywood is not same as Indian films
Title is misleading. Including all the regional actors in the list of Bollywood actors hides the fact that Bollywood is dominated by muslims since most of the regional actors are hindus. But Bollywood is dominated by muslims and hindus are discriminated against. Most of the Bollywood actors are muslims or converted to Islam. This fact must be visible to the world. This is why suspicion falls on Zora which sounds like islamic name Zohra. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.61.30.81 (talk) 08:29, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

A very successful Bollywood actress Mumtaz is not listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.169.75.100 (talk) 04:20, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation required for Surya
The link to Surya (under tamil movies)leads to an article on Surya, the sun god. We need to disambiguate Surya and also add a link like Surya_(Actor).

list of actress
there is a seperate section for a list of indian film actress. but also why it is merged here? shall i remove the all the actress name from "list of actors"

Link not correct
I m a new visitor, I found error in the link for "Govinda" on the URL page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_Actors, clicking on the name Govinda shoul go to the page containing the details of Indian Film actor Govinda but the link opens the page of One of the indian God "Govinda" or Lord Krishna.

Pls incorporate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmadesiya (talk • contribs) 19:07, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Just to clarify my removals
I occasionally pull stuff out of this page--to clarify, we cannot have people on this list with redlinked pages. Lists of people are an exception to the normal idea that it's okay to add redlinks to encourage article creation; details can be found in WP:NLIST. Please do not add such names here; if you see one, please remove it. Qwyrxian (talk) 11:47, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
