In our second week of celebrating the rogues of the movies, we would invite you to add to this list of baddies...
The Gang Of Bad Men
‘Baaaad’ men are known to strike fear in the heart of villagers by arriving on the scene riding hard on horses and firing their two-nought-twos in the air, their yells scattering villagers hither and thither. They round up the men and demand their share of the crop. When that is not enough they kidnap the comely women and burn down the huts before leaving in a trail of dust.
Bow Before My God
Or they are men of strange scary Gods, their fiery eyes demanding instant and continuous obedience, obeisance, and complete complaince with their weird and various demands, which might include the offering of all family gold, women as well as wealth. The threat? God’s wrath that might kill their firstborns and more...
Sona and Mona Darling
But the happiest and the baddest ones of all are the ones who have houses on islands, own islands and boats and airplanes and treasure rooms filled with gold bars. The smugglers and dons who steal millions and build missile bases, kidnap nuclear scientists and hold their beautiful daughters to ransom so they can make nuclear bombs for his evil plan. The evil plans include of course, the taking over the world...
Bhai Se Darneka...
If Hollywood has the mafia, the family and loyal hitmen, the yakuza movies have scenes of thumbs being cut off when mistakes are made, Bollywood has the lord of the neighborhood: the bhai. Everyone is afraid of them. The men look at the atrocities brought upon the hood hapless to do anything. The women hide their daughters and the kids from their lustful gaze of the no good gold chain wearing taporis who terrorize everyone.

HOLI KAB HAI, KAB HAI HOLI?
For thousands of years we have depended upon the stars to dictate our actions. Shakespeare talks about the Ides of March and Midsummer celebrations. And in cinema, no one does it better than Gabbar Singh in Sholay. He's not consulting the oracle, just mak

Oh My God!
If it’s not rays of light coming from the idol’s eyes directly into the eyes of the hero’s blind mother, it will be rays of light from behind the clouds during the hero’s epiphany. God has a super role to play in all movies, but he’s often just

Animals!
They have Rise Of The Planet Of Apes, we have Maa Durga Divya Haathi. They have Bruce the Shark. We have Tuffy. Animal House had different kind of animals and our Nagin movies could beat them all hollow had we not tried to milk the franchise the way we d

Just Friends
A boy is friends with a girl. In fact, they would have grown up together. And one fine day when the girl steps out for a date with the neighborhood romeo or the office hottie, the boy realises that he has been in love with the girl for ever and ever. Well

Hot Weather Predicted
It's Summer Of 69 for some, and escape from exploding volcanoes for the other. Hot bodies, hot guns, hot deals...

Ever wondered if the big bad beefy villains had a back story? Did their mothers drop them when they were babies and their brains get damaged? Or were they teased mercilessly as kids for looking weird and hence they became villains? Or were they simply bor

Disco Deewane
Everything your parents did not want you to do, you did. At the disco! From the saccharin sweet holding-hands-while-roller-skating to dirty dancing cheek-to-cheek (they still do it, call it ‘bumping’) the disco became the center of all envy in the 70

Prem! Prem! Prem!
Happy birthday to the Bollywood heartthrob who is known as Prem! Yes,It is Salman Khan's birthday! And what a way to end the year on FilmOrbit than to deconstruct his film career and see him in his many avatars.

Picture abhi baaki hai mere dost!
The villain has the hero by his neck and his vicious, determined expression tells you that he means to end the hero’s life. He’s so focussed on gritting his teeth and increasing the pressure on the hero’s neck, that he hasn’t noticed that the hero

Superstar!
We call him Thalaivar! We take prints of his movies to the temple and burn camphor on palms before the first showing of his movies. We attempt to copy his style of wearing his coolers. We even attempted to smoke because we saw him light up on the screen.
