Although Indian cinema produces films in more than 20 languages,[6] the actors whose performances have won awards have worked in one or more of seven major languages: Hindi (18 awards), Tamil (9 awards), Bengali (3 awards), Malayalam (4 awards), Marathi (3 awards), Telugu (1 award), Kannada (1 award).

The first recipient was Victor Banerjee, who was honoured at the 32nd National Film Awards for his performance in the Bengali film Ghare Baire (1984).[7] As of the 2013 awards, three actors—Nana Patekar, Pankaj Kapur, and Atul Kulkarni—have been honoured twice. Patekar was awarded for the Hindi films Parinda (1989)[b] and Agni Sakshi (1996).[8] Kapur received the awards for his work in the Hindi films Raakh (1988) and Maqbool (2003).[9] Kulkarni was awarded for his performances in the Tamil / Hindi film Hey Ram (1999) and the Hindi film Chandni Bar (2001).[10] Paresh Rawal and Dilip Prabhavalkar have each won the award for two performances in a single year. Rawal received the award for his starring roles in the Hindi films Woh Chokri (1993) and Sir (1993) at the 41st National Film Awards, while Prabhavalkar won at the 54th National Film Awards for his performances in the Hindi film Lage Raho Munna Bhai (2006) and the Marathi film Shevri (2006).[11] At the 42nd National Film Awards, the award was tied between Ashish Vidyarthi and Nagesh, winning for their roles in the Hindi film Drohkaal (1994) and the Tamil film Nammavar (1994), respectively.[12] The most recent recipient of the award is Pavan Malhotra, who was honoured at the 70th National Film Awards ceremony for his performance in the film Fouja (2022). Nana Patekar, Mithun Chakraborty, Naseeruddin Shah, Prakash Raj and Manoj Bajpayee are the actors to receive honours in both acting categories: Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor.
