Allu Arjun
Allu Arjun is an Indian actor who primarily works in Telugu-language films. He started his career as a child artist in the film Vijetha and made a brief appearance as a dancer in Daddy. He made his full acting debut in Gangotri and rose to fame with his role in Sukumar's debut film Arya.
It is well known that the Telugu cinema actor, Stylish Star Allu Arjun, is the best dancer in the entire Tollywood industry. Allu Arjun spellbound the audience with his awe-inspiring dance skills in his recent movie, Badrinath.
He is the ultimate dancer in India, that's it.
Allu Arjun always rocks. Guys, vote up for the great dancer of Tollywood. Oh, sorry, not only Tollywood but also the whole film industry of India.
-
Hrithik Roshan
Hrithik Roshan is an Indian actor who appears primarily in Bollywood films. He made his debut as a leading actor in Kaho Naa.. Pyaar Hai in 2000. He is widely recognized for his dance abilities and for starring in numerous successful films.
Undoubtedly, the best dancer in Bollywood, his moves are exceptional, and his expressions are very good. However, his name should only come after Shammi Kapoor and Govinda during their respective eras. If I have to pick only one, it's Madhuri, and her nearest competitor is Waheeda Rehman.
If I have to find the best dancing hero in India, Allu Arjun and Vijay can give tough competition to Hrithik. I exclude Prabhudeva from this list because he is a choreographer turned actor. Others on the list are actors who can dance. This is the difference. We can find hundreds of Prabhudevas in the current generation, but Prabhu was far ahead of others in his generation.
-
Jr NTR
He is the ultimate dancer in India.
He is India's best dancer. He can dance both classical and Western to perfection.
Jr NTR is a very good dancer. He can do any kind of dance, whether it is classical or Western. He is a single-take artist. Nothing can compare to his speed and perfection. So, he deserves the number one position.
-
Prabhu Deva
Prabhu Deva (born 3 April 1973) is an Indian dance choreographer, film director, producer, and actor who has worked predominantly in Tamil, Hindi, and Telugu-language films. He has also appeared in a few Kannada and Malayalam films.... read more
Prabhu is really great. He can dance even like MJ (I saw it in one function). However, he doesn't use that style because he has his own unique way of dancing. Even Lawrence has said that Prabhu is the best dancer. Prabhu has taught Hrithik for some songs. It's clearly proven that Prabhu Deva is the greatest dancer in India.
I still remember Prabhu's first movie, where he was a backup dancer in the Tamil movie Agni Natchathiram. Prabhu is actually Tamil and knows various languages. He acts in Telugu, Hindi, and Malayalam movies. I still can't believe where he is today! I'm proud to call myself Tamil. Love you, Prabhu!
-
Lawrence
He is the BEST! Really, guys, if you think the others are better, just go to YouTube and compare for yourself!
I don't know why everyone recognizes only those who have the appearance to be shown. It's a matter of fact. Look at their talent. I say he is the best in serving the needy with his talent.
In my opinion, he is a better dancer than Prabhu. His dance combines all styles. He is next to my dance guru, Michael Jackson.

Madhuri Dixit
Madhuri Dixit, also known by her married name Madhuri Dixit Nene, is an Indian actress best known for her work in Hindi cinema. She rose to fame in the late 1980s and 1990s with a series of successful films. Dixit is celebrated for her acting talent, dancing skills, and has won several awards including... read more
You are the best for me. People dance with steps and body. You dance with your soul! I love you, Madhuri Jee. You have been my inspiration and happiness.
I think she is simply the best. Her expressions are mind-blowing. Her smile is just everything a dancer really needs. Everything about her is like something that a dancer should have.
I love you, I respect you. I watch your songs daily. I wish God allows me to meet you. I pray that you and your family have the best life.
-
Vijay
Joseph Vijay, known mononymously as Vijay, is an Indian actor and playback singer who primarily works in Tamil cinema. His films are widely distributed and frequently dubbed into Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and even Chinese.... read more
Vijay should be within the top 5. He dances with ease, mostly smiling, which some great dancers don't do very often. According to me, the list should go as Prabhu Deva, Hrithik Roshan, Vijay, Allu Arjun, Lawrence, Madhuri Dixit, Shilpa Shetty, and so on.
Vijay is the best among the current lot of top heroes in the industry. His expressions and the ease with which he dances are second to none. He is any choreographer's delight when it comes to dancing.
Vijay should be in the top three actors because THALAPATHY's dance is excellent and outstanding.
He is the next superstar. He gives cool expressions while dancing.
He has the skill to execute tough steps in an easy way.
-
Raghav CrocRoaz
Seriously? Real dancers like him are in 8th position, but actors are in 1st position. Half the people don't know the REAL professional dancers. By the way, love you, Raghav! You are the definition of a true dancer.
King of slow motion! King of dance! King of India! Keep it up. All the best for the future.
Love your style of dancing. You are a great dancer and a great inspiration for dancers like me. You are my favorite. Keep it up.

She's the best dancer! Waiting for her to dance again! No wonder why we still love her in Hollywood!
I love your dance, performance, acting, and everything that is related to you.
Aishwarya is the best dancer among the actresses. End of discussion.

Shantanu Maheshwari
Well, as a dancer, I think Mr. Maheshwari is incomparable. The grace that he carries, the ease and finesse with which he dances, is mesmerizing to witness. His dance looks so effortless, like poetry in motion. You just cannot take your eyes off him.
His expressions are so apt, which connects us really well with his dance. The amount of flexibility he has is commendable, and he never rushes to the next step. He always completes his steps. His steps are always very neat, clean, and crisp, and it's like he really understands the steps and the dance form.
He has that attitude, that kind of swag, in his dance, and all of this makes him one hell of a dancer. And above all, he does not just dance. He PERFORMS.

Ram Charan is an Indian actor, producer, and entrepreneur who primarily appears in Telugu-language films. He made his acting debut in 2007 and quickly rose to prominence with a string of box office successes. In addition to his film career, he has co-owned the production company Konidela Production Company... read more
I don't know why he is not in the top 10. As a dancer, I can say that he has the best grace and dances perfectly to the music. He is an awesome dancer.
He is upcoming but talented and promising. A few years down the line, he will make it to the top 10.
Awesome dancer. His grace is incredible.

Shahid Kapoor
Shahid Kapoor is a well-known Indian film actor who appears in Hindi-language films. He began his career with romantic roles but later earned acclaim for more complex characters in films such as Haider (2014) and Kabir Singh (2019). Kapoor has received numerous awards for his performances and continues... read more
No. 10? No way! He deserves to be way higher, at least in the top 7. He is a lot better than Harman Baweja. Shahid, you rock, man!
Shahid is the only dancer in Bollywood who dances with more energy than the background dancers. He also performs each step cleanly.
Shahid Kapoor is a very good dancer. It's just that he hasn't had as many songs as compared to Hrithik.
-
Silambarasan
Silambarasan is an Indian film actor, director, producer, and singer who works mainly in the Tamil film industry. Also known as Simbu or STR, he made his acting debut as a child artist and later gained popularity with leading roles in Tamil cinema. He is noted for his performances in films such as Manmadhan... read more
STR is the best dancer in India. He has a lifelong leg injury, but he still dances to entertain people. He deserves to be in the top 5. STR is great.
He is a very cute, awesome, lovely, and energetic dancer. He tops all dancers.
He is the most consistent dancer in Indian cinema.
-
Chiranjeevi
I'm not saying nobody can dance like Chiranjeevi, but only a few can. The list you have given is not accurate because we can't compare them with Chiranjeevi, apart from Hrithik and Prabhu Deva.
Chiranjeevi is a world-class dancer. Prabhu is a good dancer and the best choreographer. I hope you understand the difference between dance and choreography. Chiranjeevi's body is suited for dance, and his hand and leg movements are outstanding. Hrithik is one of the best dancers.
When we talk about Vijay, Simbhu is a better dancer than Vijay. Vijay's legs are not straight, which is very important for dance.
Kamal is okay with classical but poor in Western, and there's no need to talk about Dhanush.
I don't find anyone from the Malayalam industry, but Puneet is a good dancer from the Kannada industry.
NTR, Allu Arjun, Ram Charan, and Ram are good dancers from the Telugu industry.
Whatever I've mentioned, they are dancers, good dancers, better dancers when compared with others, but Chiranjeevi is the best dancer I have ever seen on the Indian screen.
-
Dharmesh Sir
He is the best. His moves are very crisp and sharp. He never misses a beat. For me, he is simply the best. God bless Dharmesh Sir.
You are great, Dharmesh Sir! Will I get to meet you? I am very excited! Will you please teach me to dance, sir?
Dharmesh sir is the best. But people have more popular options than him. Vote for the right one.
-
Harihar Dash
Harihar Dash is the best. His dance is unique, and he has wonderful grace, even with minor steps.
World's number 1 dancer. Love you, sir.

Ram Charan Teja
Ram Charan is an Indian actor, producer, and entrepreneur who primarily appears in Telugu-language films. He made his acting debut in 2007 and quickly rose to prominence with a string of box office successes. In addition to his film career, he has co-owned the production company Konidela Production Company... read more
Ram Charan! My man! Your dance inspires me to keep dancing. You are better than everyone in dancing. I don't know about other stuff, but in dance, you are a king. Plus, my name is Haveesh Macha, and I am your biggest fan in the world.
Ram Charan is the best. His dance is unique, and he has wonderful grace, even with small steps.
He is the best dancer. People can dance like Allu Arjun and NTR, but not like Charan. He has the grace and speed.
-
Remo D'Souza
He is a really good dancer. I want to become your student, sir. I want you to bless me so that I can become a good and well-known dancer. You are my god, sir. I worship you. I love you, Remo sir.
Remo sir is the best dancer in India.
Remo sir is the image of God's beauty.
-
Puneeth Rajkumar
Just Google Puneeth awards. Also, watch his "Jackie Jackie Jackie" song and dance from the movie Milana to know why he needs to be at the top.
He's one of the finest dancers in India. He is the Kannada film industry's number 1 dancer.
His dancing style is amazing, and he should be in the top 10 Indian dancers.
-
Sridevi
Sridevi Kapoor was an Indian film actress who worked across Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada cinema. She was one of the most popular and influential actresses in Indian cinema. Sridevi passed away in February 2018 in Dubai at the age of 54.
I choose Sridevi because I think she's good at dancing. I just don't know. When I watch her tandav dance, it's just like magic. But I'm not a fan of Sridevi. I'm the biggest fan of Kajol. Sadly, she's not on the list. But it's okay because I know Kajol isn't a good dancer.
Sridevi is the best dancer in the world. In the case of expression, nobody can beat her. She is the master of expression.
I'm not saying she is the best, but she deserves to be in the top 10 at least.
-
Vrushika Mehta
An amazing dancer with fabulous charisma. She is truly an inspiration for the youth and has proved it rightfully through her unconditional passion for dance and, of course, through her works on television. Vrushika has captured millions of hearts through her dance. Therefore, she deserves to be in the top ten.
She dances with grace and elegance in all dance forms. She emotes each word of the song through her facial expressions and her dance moves. Most importantly, she truly feels the emotions in the song through dance, which reaches our hearts. She definitely deserves to be in the top 10.
-
Shakti Mohan
Shakti Mohan was born to dance. Her moves and expressions are just marvelous. She is the best example. Every dance beat is her heartbeat.
Shakti Mohan is the best female dancer. Her moves, style, and expressions are superb and marvelous. Love you, Shakti Mohan.
I think she makes every woman feel that nothing's impossible. When you watch her dance, she'll often make your heart skip a beat.
-
Ganesh Hegde
The most underrated dancer in the Indian film industry. From Amitabh Bachchan to Michael Jackson, he is the only person in India who has danced along with major personalities. He is a better dancer than all the dancers listed above.
His ease and style are something that would take years for you to develop. Undoubtedly, he is the best pop star in India.
Killer style... India needs more performers like this. Truly an international artist with flawless attempts in dance.
-
Javed Jaffrey
For me, he is the best dancer. He still has the ability to perform hard and challenging steps. He was the first to introduce breakdancing in India. He not only influenced the younger generation towards breakdancing but also inspired people of age 50 and above.
His flexibility is awesome. He doesn't just dance or move. He actually sways like a wave.
He is one of the finest dancers. He killed it in the song "Bol Baby Bol." I also like his comedy!
-
Kunwar Amar
Without any professional training, he ranked in DID 2. That's where he proved himself and also proved that it's not training that always matters, but your willpower and hard work that matter.
He is a great dancer and also a great human. He deserves much more, and his moves, especially in contemporary, are exceptional. He reached this height without any trainer. Rockstar, all the best. Your fans are with you.
Amar is a very hot, cute, and stylish dancer. I love his dancing, acting, and his romantic angles. And with Shakti, his dance is superb, and he looks so cute with Shakti. Love you, Amar (Rey).

Kamal Haasan
Parthasarathy, better known by his stage name Kamal Haasan (born November 7, 1954), is an Indian Tamil film actor, screenwriter, director, producer, playback singer, choreographer, lyricist, philanthropist, dancer, and politician. He was born in Paramakudi, Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu, to D. Srinivasa... read more
Come on! He is the first Indian actor who learned this art! He also choreographed for some films! He is the best Indian actor-dancer ever!
Kamal sir is the best among everyone mentioned in the list. He is incomparable. Ulaga Nayagan. He is the best in every type of dance.
The one and only multitalented actor! How can one forget his dance in Tamil films like Salangai Oli and Vishwaroopam!
