Amitabh Bachchan - Don / Sarkar / Agneepath
The versatility spectrum of Big B is immeasurable. His performance as a stylish and arrogant Don in the original Don is still a landmark for the new actors.
On the other hand his appearance as Godfather who is thoroughly against system but is a 'Messiah of Masses' in movies like Sarkaar and Agneepath were tremendously adored by the masses. -

Vivek Oberoi - Shooutout At Lokhandwala / Company
