No fuss, just a regular cop doing his job while dealing with his own issues, that's what I like about Aamir Khan in Sarfarosh and Amitabh in Zanjeer, they are probably the most realistic cops in Bollywood

Honestly, most cop roles in Bollywood are pretty silly, all that slow motion walking and flying cars, it's just fantasy, not reality, but Aamir and Amitabh felt like real cops, not superheroes, they were restrained and had a purpose


Mahesh


Dev

If you've ever met a cop in real life, you'll know that Mahesh Manjrekar in Wanted is the most realistic one

Ashok

Shool is a great example, Manoj Bajpai did a fantastic job

Tejas


Saloni


Ravindra


Dinesh


Madhu

I don't think Allu Arjun would be the best fit for these kinds of roles

Raj

I think the most realistic portrayal of a cop is actually Gaitonde in Drishyam

Harendra

Om Puri in Ardh Satya and Arshad Warsi in Sehar are also up there as two of the best cop roles in Bollywood
