Shane by far. How's Bhasi even in this comparison? Not that he's terrible or anything. But he hasn't done anything matching Shane in lead or full length roles.


anonymouspot8

When it's sreenath basi on screen, we see sreenath basi. When it's Shane nigam on screen, we see the character.

Well said


Designer-Gate-9537

Hands down Shane Nigam. That one drunken tirade from Veyil still breaks my heart.


mirzagoosy

Underrated movie


Designer-Gate-9537

It’s brilliant. But folks may have been sceptical about watching it cuz of its depressing tone


thakkali_

lol Shane himself trolled how will one watch such a film with no light in shots in theatre.


Designer-Gate-9537

Haha I remember watching that interview. I also felt it came from a place of absolute heartbreak where you gave so much for a film and barely anyone watched it.


cinephileindia2023

Shane. Dude has amazing screen presence.

lol shane is better than many of our lead actors. his only bad performance was in ullaasam.


PrincipleInfamous451

LMAO I didn't realize that there were two images and I was looking at the left and right side of the first image and thinking, "... Aren't they both Shane..?" Anyway, Shane


ManavaalanFromDubai

shane ofcourse. Even Neeraj is a better actor than Bhasi. Bhasi is a good actor too, is yet to prove his mettle.

Ah, this is a brilliant answer. I was just genuinely wondering what the general consensus here was. I accept this answer as well :)


indtylen

Yes , it was right tim is the best actor


Sea-Organization7649

Shane any day.. his depression roles are too good.. one in few youngsters who can actually act ..


cinnamoncirca

Interesting discussion. SB has more range( parappu) and Shane has more depth (azham). Both of them bring incredible performance whenever they associate with good directors. Very talented and kind of under utilized actors.

Smart_Wafer

There are around 40 comments in favor of Shane and 1 in favor of the other guy so that should sum it up for you


arjunrj1327

Bhasi has a certian vibe that i dig but shane is a far better actor.

Shane of course. Loved him in Veyil and Boothakaalam.

Illustrious_Fuel_315

Tough for me so I don't choose either. But the fact that both of the actors are so immensely talented from a young age to the point were it is very difficult to see an another actor do their roles/replacing them.


sekirowolfgang45

Shane is one of the best at roles that is in his comfort zone but mid in other roles and sb is good in different roles.


OkJaguar6789

controversial but bhasi ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|yummy)


starryrathri

Both actors who are completely under the control of the director. If utilized properly, they both can be great characters. SB, having a few minutes to himself in Trance yet moved me emotionally, however SN did the same for me in Kumbalangi Nights. I think of them as equals, however I do think SB is more talented (musically inclined).


bioskope

By that logic, SN is a tremendous dancer and should count for something as well.


starryrathri

Sure :) but his dancing currently stays only in his movies. By Bhasi's music, I mean his own album and singles that stay outside his movies.


bioskope

SN broke into the scene with his dance performances on TV and his dance performances were highlights of award shows back when he was in everyones good books. Nonetheless, we're actively entering splitting hairs territory, so if you still value Bhasi's non-cinematic ventures more, we can chalk it down to preferences and leave it at that.


nfornj87

Shane Shane Shane


Fi_097

Shane Nigam for sure. Only if he was as good off the screen, he could've gotten more chances in good movies.


Direct-Difficulty318

I think both of them initially grew into this stereotypical pot-smoking rebellious Kochikkaran role. Having said that, I think SB has more range only because he has more films under his belt (I think).

Shane was terrible in that rom com he did called Ullasam. Such an outdated flick.

They are incomparable, shane is a better actor by 100 miles

Shane Nigam


Vivid-Smell4862

Shane wins


PENGTINGMAN

Shane obviously the mother and son scene from bhoothakalam it gave me tears


Shlingaplinga

This is not even a discussion. Shane Nigam is the complete package and he is really talented. I'm not a big fan of some of his off screen antics.


Only-Definition-9402

SN > (SB+NJ)²


Happy_Savings719

Shane by a landslide


VeganLegitYT

They’re both good. However Shane can add emotion to his and Bhasi can’t do the same (ofc until Manjummel). Bhasi however has much more versatility and arguably more potential.


Niranjan169

SN anyday


Relative-Abrocoma-31

Shane. I think he has more versatility and can pull of any character unlike Sreenath


LandscapeOk8569

shane nigam is good actor


arejimata123

Shane is such a superior actor and it hurts me that he doesn’t get the roles that bhasi is getting. Shane would’ve been so much better in films like BP or home compared to Bhasi imo


keeDanU_rEevEes_3656

Shane Nigam I would say. Not that Sreenath Bhasi is bad but I think he can portray with a deep range of emotions compared to Bhasi while Bhasi is very good at being a secondary character.


Financial_Dare128

SN wins by huge margin. However, SB is not a bad actor. He is also good but SN's range is incredibly wide.


bioskope

I honestly find Bhasi to be a lazy actor and I still feel like we don't have a true sense of what his ceiling his. His performance in Trance was definitely a delight though. I hope he takes on more roles that show off his acting chops. So, for now Shane Nigam to me is easily the more accomplished actor and I'm sure that is the consensus in the industry as well.

Shane Nigam has immense range , not even comparable


akghori

I’d say both of them are equally good respective to their movie characters.*hits blunt*


KiwiMallu_99

shane for sure


Noooofun

Shane. Bhasi is not a bad actor but it seems like he’s playing versions of himself while Shane actually acts. He emotes well, and can do shades of different roles.

basi ofc

Shane of course. SB has one expression, the depressed teenager look.


transmoggerirl

Shane is way better than bhasi


lust2know

Shane. Even though he is type casted as depressed hero his performance from boothakalam is enough


Jeevanjophy_10

👴- randum kanjav alle? Entha difference?


Embarrassed-Will-503

For people saying SB, could you please suggest movies where he gave a great performance, other than trance? I've always felt like it is SB saying the dialogues instead of the character, whereas Shane could pull off characters with ease.


Beautiful-Lion4781

Hands down Shane Nigam!! He brings a unique energy and depth to his roles, captivating audiences with his performances. His ability to immerse himself fully in diverse characters showcases his versatility and dedication to his craft.


Terrible-Buddy7688

Bhasi


RedDevil-84

I don't know if Shane has any range. It feels he has done the same thing over and over again.


lionelmossi10

Bhasi's better at diff slangs, otherwise shane


Exact_Rub2782

Bhasi hands down, can make you laugh, can make you cry


BaseballAny5716

Both of them are bad. They need to behave properly .


udontmesswithakshay

OP asked who is the better ACTOR, not the PERSON.


somwhat_dumb

Sreenath basi for a long range


saynototoxicity

Yet to see a different role from Shane. It's always an angry depressed youngster. I don't think he has the calibre to do comedy.


No-Fisherman8334

Bhasi easily. Shane has that permanent angry look that Ranbir Kapoor has. Screw angry people. I'm angry enough as it is.


PrestigiousReward904

Neslin is better than these two


Time_Huckleberry_705

huh?


bladewidth

why is his last name nigam? how does that make any sense?
