Bollywood actresses and their Premature marriages

People who criticize the current age gap difference between actor and actresses, shouldn't forget that 70s, 80s, 90s was the hay day of not only age gap, but marriages between co actors.

Dimple Kapadia was 16 when, Rajesh Khanna who was 31 and a well established superstar, married each other.

Divya Bharti also, was 18 when she married sajid nadiadwala who was a producer.

People got the concept of nepotism after 2017-18, but it became a nationwide topic in 2020 after Sushant's death. But you shouldn't forget that nepotism have existed since forever. Just like this, age gap was also a even more problematic issue in 80s , 90s.

Even during saif ali Khan's first marriage when he was 20, kareena kapoor had attended the function as she was 10. And in 2010 they started dating and married in 2012.

To say age is just a number, is a fallacy.

Even if two 16 years old individuals are marrying eachother, that's still acceptable than have a 35 year man marrying a 16 or 18 year old. Age matters.

Still, there are some exceptions like jay mehta and juhi chawla.

People today troll juhi for marrying a rich guy, as they don't understand that they actually had a pretty normal relationship before marriage and even after they married, jay mehta was okay with not announcing it as it could have affected juhi's career.

Who are the most underrated actors/actresses in Sandalwood? Why?

 The actor who instantly popped into my head when I saw this question was this man:

​
​
Ramesh Aravind
Considering the kind of roles he's played and movies he's choosen to act in, he definitely deserves more appreciation. Overshadowed by his contemporaries, this gentleman actor is one of those few underrated kannada actors with a limited fan base.

but, considering he's well known and regarded highly by all Kannadigas, I wouldn't add him to the list, lets move on,

the second person that came to my mind was this guy:

​
​
Achyuth Kumar
although famous after he played roles in Lucia, Drushya and Ulidavaru Kandante, this guy has been around from a long time and is one solid actor who can pull off pretty much any kind of character/role with ease.
(I remember him from his early days of acting in one of those serials on ETV kannada, the name of which I can't recall at the moment.)

and then this guy,

​
​
Ram Kumar
With good acting skills and decent looks (oh wait, better than most of his contemporaries, actually) this guy should've gone places. But he didn't. Still wonder why. underrated!

I would also add Srinivas Murthy and Daisy Bopanna to the list.
I have left out a few others as other answers already mention them.
