The most loved 'bad men' of the silver screen; one of Gulshan Grover ?s earliest film Sadma, told the visually haunting story of a school teacher played by Kamal Hassan and an amnesiac girl (Sridevi). But for a handful of sensitive performances, like Avataar, Sohni Mahiwal, Ram Lakhan and the likes, he swayed with the trends in Bollywood and resorted to hideous make-ups and voice contortions to play a spate of ?baddie? roles. But there was a period where villains almost became an endangered species in Bollywood, and Gulshan Grover flew to the West and did a sequel to Disney's The Jungle Book. He soon became a ?likeable? villain and his reputation reached unprecedented heights. He also scored a professional coup by becoming the first and only Bollywood star to be tapped by a Washington-based company to appear in television commercials for its international long-distance dialing number. He has worked in 5 foreign films, including the Tibetan We?re No Monks and the Italian Les, Mystè²¥s de Sadjurah where he played the main villain as a rebel chief. Worked with almost all the top directors of the country, Gulshan Grover?s recent movies include Rajkumar Santoshi 's Lajja , Umesh Mehra's Yeh Mohabbat Hai , Kundan Shah 's Kasam Se Prakash Jha 's Rahul , 1947 Earth, 16th December, Jism , Paap , Subhash Chandra Bose and Dus . His forthcoming movies include My Bollywood Bride , Aryan , Family , Tom, Dick and Harry and The Fall.
