What are some really good villain roles played by a leading actors?

Unfortunately Bollywood heroes and heroines rarely take up negative roles. But from what we have what were some of the most memorable villain roles for you?

For me SRK in Anjaam

Ajay in Deewangee and Khakee. Khakee especially!!

Akshay Kumar in Khiladi 420. I don't remember that movie except there was a double role and God I hated Akshay's character so much in that movie that I couldn't stand Akshay for a long time.

Saif in Omkara

Salman in pretty much every movie

For actresses 

Kajol in Gupt

Priyanka in Aitraaz

John Abraham in Dhoom. 

I was rooting for him the whole time 🥳

Saif Ali Khan in Ek Haseena Thi

Priyanka in aitraaz

Ramayana Krishna in Narasimha

SRK in anjaam 

Ranveer in padmavat 

Saif was sensational in omkara. 

But, fir me, nothing beats SRK in Darr. The character was well balanced by making us hate him and sympathize with his love, at tge same time. Anjaam was OTT fir me.

Ditto. SRK owns this thread. But Saif was pretty phenomenal in both Ek Hasina Thi and Omkara

From whatever I remember of Khakee, Ajay was quite menacing too

Special mention to Naseer for chilling turns in Mohra and Sarfarosh

Saif in Ek Haseena thi- all the other appearances of the other actors were menacing and cruel from the get go and we knew what to expect but this role played by Saif was chilling because the character was very realistic and Saif did such a wonderful job at it, the first time I noticed Saif the actor.

Kajol in Gupt

Ritesh in EV

Saif in Omkara

Urmila in PTKK

SRK in Darr
