Mumbai: Shakti Kapoor is one actor who is as famous for his villainous roles as he is for his comic roles. Be it Nandu from Raja Babu or Batuknath Lalanprasad Maalpani aka Balma from Chalbaaz, we have always relished his variant characters. The actor has also been one of the favourites amongst the mimicry artists because of the peculiar role choice.
