Riteish Deshmukh's recent release Ek Villain has garnered him a lot of praise for his sadistic performance.

The actor, who once was the most bankable comedy actors in the industry has adapted to a new genre and how! The screw driver villain is not the only actor who played a negative shade after being a hero, Bollywood has many such examples. Take a look at these...

Ajay Devgn has experimented with comedy, action as well as romantic projects. But his role as a villain in Khakee and Deewangee deserves special praise.
Ka..k..kiran, yes u got it right! Darr! the movie that literally scared all the girls who were fighting over Shah Rukh Khan. The King Khan played negative shade characters in movies like Anjaam and Baazigar too.
The hottest and till recently the most eligible bachelor in B town, John Abraham has played hero in several movies. But his role as the thief in Dhoom is unforgettable.
The serial kisser of Bollywood and you know who we mean has also played the role of villain with ease. Remember Once Upon a time in Mumbai? We think Emraan looks hot as a hero or a villain.
If one were to ask who's the most harmless actor in B town, pat comes the reply Abhishek Bachchan. Perhaps the kind of roles he's played has to be credited for the compliment. But one should not forget that Abhi looks very much a baddie in Maniratnam's Raavan.
Sanjay Dutt is remembered for his romantic roles in movies like Saajan. But the actor's makeover into a baddie in movies like Khalnayak and Agneepath too cannot be ignored.
Saif Ali Khan: There's no role that he hasn't played. From comic role in Main Khiladi Tu Anari to a negative role in Omkara, Saif has evolved as a fine actor. Bebo is naturally thrilled by his progress.
Who would have thought Vivek Oberoi could pull off the role of Kaal in Krrish 3 so easily? Full marks to Vivek.
Not just male actors, even female actors have attempted to turn vamps for movies. Here are some examples
Kajol, known for her lover girl image has also played a killer in the thriller Gupt which also starred Bobby Deol and Manish Koirala. And we must say she was soooo good at it.
Bipasha Basu, the bong bombshell too has been seen in villainous avatars. Her performance in Jism, Ajnabee, and Raaz 3 earned her immense praise.
Who can forget Priyanka Chopra, the killer widow in 7 Khoon Maaf and also the wicked boss in Aitraaz.
Konkana Sen Sharma is known for choosing offbeat movies. But she played the role of a mystery woman in Ek Thi Daayan perfectly.
