Hera Pheri
Most readers voted for this film. And it was truly one of Paresh Rawal's best.
Paresh played Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, a landlord with a large heart and empty pockets. His performance outdid the other two heroes in the film, Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty.
The film, directed by Priyadarshan, boosted the flagging careers of all three actors. In fact, the film was such a roaring success that it prompted producer Firoz Nadiadwala to make a sequel, Phir Hera Pheri.
