Some actors are born heroes. A chiselled jawline, a pleasant face and a penchant for respectable roles can paint some actors into a heroic corner that makes everything they do seem admirable.
These are the guys you want to be flying the plane when the engine falls off, the people who you ask to fight for you in court, the ones who might make an inspiring speech at your wedding.
Some actors might be naturals at playing heroes, but when they occasionally decide to try something different, they often prove they’re even better at being bad.
Salman Khan: Salman was sentenced to 5 years prison for his famous hit and run case. He was also involved in the killing of endangered black dear. His name also had been in the limelight when he slapped one of the journalists.
Sanjay Dutt: He was involved in drugs. His role in Khalnayak became famous when he was arrested under that TADA Act and was found guilty of keeping a gun after 1993 blasts.
Saif Ali Khan: Saif Ali Khan the Nawab from Pataudi was dragged to jail after he punched a fellow diner at a restaurant.
Shiney Ahuja: The rising star indulged in serious crime when her maid filed a case against him for raping her. This is something we never expect from our hero, his wife defended him, but all the evidence was against him and he faced charges.
Rajpal Yadav: Rajpal Yadav was part of some of the best comedy movies and his role in Mein Meri Biwi aur Woh is the best role of his career. He spent 10 days jail because he was hiding some facts of Rs 5 crores.
