WHO IS A BETTER ACTOR?

[Girish11]

Amitabh Bachchan is trying out new roles only recently. He was angry young man for a looooong time. There was no variety even as recent as Mrityudaata,Lal Badshaah etc. Cute father/uncle/patriarch in Mohabbatein,K3G,Baghban etc. His pwerformances in Dev and Khakhee were overhyped.
He was outstanding in Black and makes you realize what a great guy he is.But the movies he was associated with were always very ordinary.Don't get me wrong, I've throroughly enjoyed him in Deewar,Don etc. but somehow I never felt he was wholesome. For instance I have never had a hearty laugh due to Amitabh. His antics in Namak-Halal fell really short and his wisecracks in Sholay were few and far between. Any recommendations ?

OTOH Om Puri has done a fantastic spread of roles. Ardh Satya to Mirch Masala to Mandi to Mumbai Xpress (and am I'm missing many to keep the alliteration going ). I have laughed with him,been amused with him, been angered by him, sympathized with him and respected him.
Nearly same is the case with Naseerudin Shah. From Sparsh to Katha to Mandi to Hey! Ram to Monsoon Wedding. The duo are a riot in Maqbool. Call AB a bigger star than these two guys, fine. But better actor ? Then recommend any movies that'd help me judge better.

To that above list of PR, you can add the movie Drohkaal which
again showcases the class performances of both Om Puri and
NDshah.
