Rahul Roy is an Indian film actor working in Bollywood films. He became famous from his debut in the hit Mahesh Bhatt production Aashiqui (1990), where he was helped by the music of Nadeem Shravan, with Kumar Sanu's vocals.
After the movie's success, he gained widespread acclaim. He appeared in a number of high-profile films, but after Aashiqui he was never able to score a big smash at the box office. He consequently started appearing in supporting roles.
He kept his fans entertained in the interim by making guest appearances on programmes like "Kaise Kahoon" and "Karishma-The Miracles of Destiny." In 2006, Rahul was named the victor of Season 1 of the reality competition "Bigg Boss." Because of his one-movie career, he is frequently referred to as a forgotten star.
