The most dreaded villains of Tamil
cinema
It is fashionable to be evil,
well onscreen that is. But there used
to be a time when villains were typecast
and confined to evil roles. The moviemakers
dared not cast the villains as heroes
fearing the miserable outcome at the
box-office. Eventually Rajini -who
pioneered the art of villainy with
his earlier flicks - broke that myth
which let him rule the Tamil screens
ever since.
This analysis will take you through
some of the most famous and dreaded
villains of Tamil cinema. Their histrionics
were received with wide-open arms
in an industry where experimenting
is never ever tried and the potential
of an actor is weighed only based
on their success. |
