Entity hypothesis — guess candidate Indian actors first, then verify against question constraints
When the question describes an Indian/Bollywood actor through indirect clues (awards, controversies, family ties, film records) and you can form a candidate guess early.
Clues in Indian actor questions typically point to well-known Bollywood figures. Hypothesize 1-3 candidate names based on the clue pattern, then verify each against every constraint.
Once a candidate name appears in search results, immediately switch to targeted verification: search "[actor name] [specific constraint]" for each condition.

Form a candidate guess and verify directly.
