Bollywood baddies throng towards Hollywood

After actresses, who migrated from Bollywood, it is turn our turn to welcome baddies from Mumbai. A host of actors, who do negative roles in Hindi, are making a beeline from Mumbai to Chennai.

Akashdeep Sehgal, who is a known face in Bollywood and for being part of several Sans – Bahu Serials, is the villain in 'Ayan' along with Suriya and Tamanna.

Milind Soman, a popular model, who acted in Goutham Menon's 'Pachaikili Muthusaram', is doing a similar role in Lingusamy's 'Paiyya' starring Karthi and Tamanna.

Don't forget the likes of Atul Kulkarni, Shayaji Shinde among others, who appeared in the recently released 'Padikathavan'.

Analyzing the trend, a popular director said, "There is dearth for villains in Tamil cinema. They are more focused on doing character roles and few of them have ventured to do lead roles too. Left with no other option, we have been forced to bring people who play negative roles from Mumbai and Andhra Pradesh.'

We might be seeing more of imported bad guys from Telugu and Hindi in the upcoming days.
