The toughest parts for an actor to play are certainly comic roles and villain roles. You need to have excellent comic timing to succeed in comedy. Over anything else, you must refine your speech and make it sound natural. Only that gives your character a credible appearance, which makes it hilarious. On the other hand, playing a villain challenges an actor to convey complex emotions and demonstrate human frailties, which is completely opposite of playing a positive character. So let us take a look at some of the Bollywood celebrities who made bad roles look good.
Shah Rukh Khan-Don
Don was a remake of the Amitabh Bachchan-led original “Don.” There must have been tremendous pressure to recreate such a famous role from an Amitabh Bachchan movie. Shah Rukh Khan, however, didn’t let fans down because he did a great job of portraying an underworld don. Shah Rukh Khan continued to portray the role with the same air in the Don sequel. The sequel has a completely unique tale, except for the characters. And Shah Rukh Khan once again performed flawlessly in the character of Don. We were convinced by his mannerisms, body language, and talking style that he could effortlessly inhabit any role.
John Abraham-Shootout At Wadala
In this Bollywood crime thriller, the murder of gangster Manya Surve in 1982 is dramatized as the first-ever registered encounter by Mumbai police. Shootout at Wadala similar to its predecessor The murder of a gangster was the subject of the tale Shootout at Lokhandwala. John Abraham did a fantastic job at playing a gangster. His physique improvement and outstanding line delivery made his persona seem more credible.
Sanjay Dutt-Agneepath
Danny Dengzongpa first played the part of Kaancha Cheena in the remake of Agneepath, which starred Sanjay Dutt. Sanjay Dutt had to bring his A-game to the role because it was a renowned one, to begin with. Sanjay Dutt certainly did not let us down. Sanjay Dutt’s negative part in the movie came out as more realistic thanks to everything he did, from his bulked-up appearance to the way he delivered dialogue.
