It discusses villains, vamps, and henchmen of Bollywood cinema, and also the actors who essayed such characters over the decades. The author discusses not just villains but also the evaluation of villainous characters vis-a?-vis sociopolitical conditions in the country. The narrative begins with Ashok Kumar's negative role in Kismet as early as 1943, and goes up to the Agneepath remake (2012), where Sanjay Dutt plays Kancha Cheena, earlier essayed by Danny Denzongpa in the original. 606 $aVillains in motion pictures 606 $aFemmes fatales in motion pictures 606 $aMotion pictures$zIndia$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aVillains in motion pictures. 615 0$aFemmes fatales in motion pictures. 615 0$aMotion pictures$xHistory 676 $a791.43/652 700 $aGhosh$b Tapan Kumar$c(Professor)$01554593 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786972103321 996 $aBollywood baddies$93815914 997 $aUNINA
