Rajnikanth<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Now this might come as a surprise to you but our very own South super-star Rajnikanth also acted in a Hollywood film. Now, his not so conventional looks may not earn him a Mr. World title but he did make his presence felt in Bloodstone (1988). The movie was one of those good forgotten action films of the 80’s on the lines of Indiana Jones . Rajnikanth though not the main lead had a very good supporting role of which his actions lead to the proceedings. This one is definitely a DVD pick-up for all Rajni fans.<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Shabana Azmi<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>The only woman to appear in the list made her acting debut in Parinay way back in 1974.
