Its very difficult to compile a list featuring all time movies. Many many many great movies are left behind in the list. This list is totally personal opinion. Debates are well welcomed. Hope, still many will give approval of my top ten best action movie ever made in bollywood. Just enjoy this nostalgic collections from yesteryears.
Best Top 10 Bollywood Action Movies of All Time List :
1. Sholay - Everybody knows this is the Best Bollywood film ever made. This movie has everything, comedy, action, drama, romance, fun, emotions. Each dialogue, each scene, each song, each character is immortal. Can't find a single flaw in the movie. The film released in 1975 and it lasted for 5 years in cinemas in India. Dharmendra was funny and excellent. Amitabh Bachchan was fantastic as always. Hema Malini was very good and played her character very well. Amjad Khan was brilliant. This is the film where he got famous. He played his character extremely well.
2. Ghayal - In the end, Sunny Deol wins. He might be the nice guy, the sweetly smiling simple fellow who never wants to strike someone and certainly not throw the first punch but when provoked, he reacts like a snarling lion, walloping everyone in sight with extreme believability. Deol's punches feel real, and perhaps never more emphatic than in this Rajkumar Santoshi blockbuster about a young man wronged again and again until he decides to avenge himself with blood.
3. Shiva - This was a wonderful and powerful debut by Ram Gopal Verma endorsing his talent and intelligence as a director. His typical style of depicting stories most naturally. Needless to say the first time director became the talk of the town. Prominent was the long-drawn shots, hand-held camera and intense background music which elevated visual experience. Of course, the violence was raw and gritty. If other films had broken boundaries and new ground, this one obliterated Hindi cinema's definition of violence, smashing convention to bloody smithereens. Ram Gopal Varma made Shiva with Nagarjuna still in the lead, and the national audience was left gobsmacked and reeling. A vicious, visceral film about student politics, Shiva pulled no punches and those it threw were coated in cycle-chains. A mega film, and a turning point in Hindi cinema.
4. Don - This movie has to be one of the best thrillers of the 70's and it still packs a punch today. The reason is simple, you think you know the whole story then suddenly the plot twists leaving you all shaken up. The script by Salim Javed was absolutely superb. Amitabh excelled in a role he was born to play. Zeenat Aman provided good support as his love interest. Even Pran lent fantastic support. The action scenes were very well executed. The songs were simply mind blowing. This movie ranks amongst the best thrillers Bollywood has ever made.
5. Arjun - In this 1985 film by Rahul Rawail, one of the directors he'd go on to work with the most, Sunny Deol plays a very fresh-faced young man hunting vainly for a job. He and his friends end up solving problems for helpless people, until a dastardly politician involves Arjun as part of his own muscle for nefarious gains. A gripping film, yes, made special by the music by R D Burman and Deol's chemistry with Dimple Kapadia

A gripping film, yes, made special by the music by R D Burman and Deol's chemistry with Dimple Kapadia
6. Gadar - This is definitely one of Sunny Deol's best action movies ever, as simply gives a complex character the performance of a life-time. Watch this action movie with an open mind, and you will realize the realistic bravery and power that he exudes on the silver screen. Only Sunny Deol could pull this one off with total élan. It looks so realistic to the point that no other current hero could have aced this role like Sunny Deol did. Sunny Deol has that fire, intensity, and command! Anyways, watch this and enjoy it!
7. Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi - Possibly the film where Akshay Kumar's Khiladi status pushed him the most in terms of physicality, this Umesh Mehra superhit took a classical narrative, threw in an unlikely but effective female villain in the form of Rekha, and added in some WWF wrestlers at a time the sport was pretty popular in India. The results remain for all to see, and the scenes featuring Akshay battling The Undertaker were a blast, even if it wasn't the real Undertaker.
8. Ghatak - Few men can play wrestlers with hearts of gold, but Sunny Deol can do it without blinking and we'll buy it every time. In this Rajkumar Santoshi film, Deol watches crime lord Danny Dengzongpa feudalize an oppressed colony and, struck by their helplessness and Dengzongpa's cruelty, vows to put an end to the abuse meted out to them. A fine actioner, this should also be remembered as Meenakshi Seshadri's last film.
9. Mohra - One of the most entertaining action thrillers in the history of bollywood. Watch it for some great bollywood masala stuff. Both Akshay Kumar and Sunil Shetty are fabulous in their roles. I don't think so any one would have done the role of Jindal better than Naseeruddin Shah. Some foot tapping music and gripping background score. The story never loses its grip, something different in bollywood. Rightly declared a great blockbuster, has a long lasting impression on you. Paresh Rawal, Raveena tandon are good in their roles. Razaa Muraad and Gulshan Grover fit in their shoes perfectly. The action scenes are quite great.
10. Wanted - It might not have been one of the most violent films on this list, but several of you loved Prabhudeva's Wanted, one of the biggest hits of 2009. A remake of Telugu hit Pokiri, it starred Salman Khan in the lead role as the wisecracking lout later revealed as a supercop. Khan, liberated by his larger-than-life persona, threw punches that unrealistically felled dozens, but this film works because of the madness, not despite it.
