10. Manoj Bajpai

His work speaks for himself. Even though he took up the part in the TV serial Swabhimaan charging only Rs. 2000, he is remembered for his portrayal of Sunil. Before this, Manoj Bajpai worked at the Salaam Balak Trust in Delhi as a teacher. Imagine Gangs of Wasseypur, Pinjar or the iconic Satya without him!

11. Dharmendra

When nothing really worked for him, and he had no food in the house, Dharmendra worked as a plumber to keep life afloat. The industry’s first He-Man, Dharmendra, worked hard to get where he is today. Who can forget his portrayal of Veeru in Sholay! Today, he is married to one of the most beautiful actresses of all time- Hema Malini and we thank him for giving us Sunny Deol & Bobby Deol. Many amazing movies wouldn’t have been possible without him.
