The most miscast actors of the year

Sometimes casting directors just go to sleep. Then again, it's alarming just how many Bollywood films are made with just the producer making the casting decisions.

Either way, sometimes actors just don't fit the mould. Try as they may, some actors just can't fit in to some roles, and the results are ludicrous and often laughable.

Here's this year's list:

Bobby Deol in Dostana

Bobby was well-groomed and all, but in a film where Abhishek Bachchan and John Abraham were posing to be gay, he was the only actor who actually seemed it.

Blame it on the voice -- and the fact that we're still reeling from that bod he tragically showed off in Apne -- but Bobby puttar really wasn't the man for the role.

They needed not just someone secure with his sexuality, but one of towering star power, and one who looked better -- if not as good -- as John and Abhi. Akshay Kumar, where the hell were you?
