Rani Mukerji in Black, Konkona Sen Sharma in 15 Park Avenue and now Priyanka Chopra in Barfi….what is it about these inwardly-ravaged characters that make them awards-worthy? Here’s looking at 11 actors who have played such roles.

Salman Khan in Tere Naam: Sal-mad Khan… You could doubt the medical authenticity of this cock-and-bull story. But the angst in Khan’s eyes as he lapsed in a dungeon-styled dementia (chains in the hands and feet) and the pain of unrequited love stayed with you A truly bravura performance that deserved a lot more recognition.
