Taporism finds ground in Bollywood, with many actors playing a pakka tapori with aplomb. In the past, our good ol' tapori Lakhan aka Anil Kapoor wooed his heroines with his tapori moves and accent. Soon other actors such as Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan followed suit. This year, their contemporaries have brought in the tapori ishtyle. The actors who are bringing on that 'jhakas' tadka to their tapori avatar

 

 

Shahid Kapoor in Phata Poster Nikla Hero

Well, this poster is definitely bringing out the tapori in Shahid. The song Agal Bagal Mein, shows Shahid display his taporism to the T. With everything loud and bright, Shahid definitely brings masti, dhamaal and whistles to your screens.

 

Ranbir Kapoor in Besharam

From playing the suave and 'Mr Free Bird' in Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani to playing a hearing and speech impaired lad in Barfi, Ranbir is all set to go Besharam for his next film. His tapori avatar is flashy, unlike the unkempt ones portrayed in the past. Ranbir makes taporism look stylish and full on paisa vasool. In the past, he did don the look for an item song in the film Chillar Party. His tapori moves and expressions are a perfect 10 on our tapori meter.

 

Imran Khan in Once Upon Ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara

In an interview, Imran said a dialogue from the film, 'Aslam ko samajhne ke liye dimaag nahin dil lagta hai'. Set in the 80s, the film shows Imran portraying a suave tapori. With tapori's known to be bade dilwalas, Aslam's character in this film is that of a romantic tapori.

 

Neil Nitin Mukesh in Shorcut Romeo

While there are romantic and dangerous taporis there are few who fall under the bracket of kaminey taporis, just like Neil's character in the film. While the role didn't do much for Neil's career graph, we liked the way he portrayed the shades of grey in this one. In the past, Neil also played a tapori in Lafangey Parindey.
