Bollywood's Dark Knights: When Heroes Turned Villains On-Screen!

October 9, 2024

One of the most captivating elements in cinema is when a hero steps into the shoes of a villain. The massive box office success of negative characters played by Bollywood A-listers is a testament to the magnetic charm of antagonist roles. Here are some heroic actors who fearlessly took on the mantle of on-screen antagonists, turning out mind-boggling performances and breaking the conventional mold of a Bollywood hero.

One of the recent examples is Arjun Kapoor, who will be seen as a villain in his upcoming film 'Singham Again'. Directed by Rohit Shetty, the movie is a third installment in the 'Singham' series and marks Arjun's transition from a hero to an antagonist. The actor is expected to bring a new dimension to the franchise. The makers have already set the tone for the movie by releasing a first-look poster of the film, which showcases Arjun in a highly-stylized avatar of a villain.

Another actor who is set to unleash his darker side is Bobby Deol in the upcoming film 'Animal'. The movie is a directorial venture of Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who has a history of producing intense dramas like 'Arjun Reddy' and 'Kabir Singh'. The director has revealed that Bobby would be returning in a highly dramatic role, shedding away his 'nice-guy' image and embracing his on-screen enemies to the core. This transformation promises to deliver an intriguing twist to the movie.

Before them, one of the most memorable roles of a hero playing an antagonist has been Sanjay Dutt in the movie 'Agneepath'. Directed by Karan Malhotra, this 2012 flick is a remake of the iconic 1990 film by the same name, which originally starred Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role of Vijay Deenanath Chauhan. Sanjay Dutt's portrayal of Kancha, a cold-blooded villain on a mission to take down the hero, stole the show and left a lasting impression on the viewers.

What draws audiences to such roles is the sheer versatility of these artists. Their capacity to bring an otherwise detestable character to life is a true display of excellence in the field of acting. Fans can expect nothing short of epic showdowns and intense performances from these leading men as they master their on-screen avatars.
