Everyone seems to be gushing about Irfan Khan’s stellar performance in "Paan Singh Tomar". How about the overweight reporter who speaks with a stutter in the film? Do you know him?
It is unfortunate that talented actors like BRIJENDRA KALA go unnoticed in today’s star-smitten culture.
The minute I saw the actor onscreen, I was reminded of his brief yet impressive cameo in "Jab We Met". He played the funny taxi driver who helped Kareena and Shahid reach the station.
Kareena: Aise train pakdenge hum?
Brijendra Kala (cab driver): Train to aap kaise bhi na pakdenge.
Then he hums, Tum kya jaano tum kya ho...rings a bell?
I hope this talented guy gets his due. I hope someday some director recognizes his potential and casts him in a leading role. He doesn’t deserve to play second fiddle to the Khans and Kapoors.

Swats,
Read 2 posts now. Good photographs in KGF, specially The Dancing Kathputli. Many a talented ones have withered away in Bollywood due to unrecognition of talent in the presence of known "STARS". Hope he has better luck.
Take care
Seems like you have lost it this time!! :(
Very true. It's unfortunate that such talented actors like him and so many others don't get acknowledged.
Read an article along the same lines in Sunday's TOI too.
i did..and he is good
Hope you must have seen him in initial Tigmanshu Dhulia movie 'Haasil' ... He played a newspaper vendor and did justice to the role... Really a good actor.
He is a good actor but wishing him to be a hero is going to far...
He doesnt have the personality of a hero, even Rajpal yadav couldnt be a succesful hero, though he is a good actor..there is that certain charisma which is lacking here.
