Pratigya's Sajjan Singh to Kasautii's Komolika; a look at TV's iconic and dreadful villains

The world is incomplete without its good and bad. Then how could our daily soaps stay away from it. A hero isn't a hero until he has a villain to fight with. The television shows are also known for its iconic antagonists, such as Komolika, Ramona Sickand, and more, who are still rememberable and with Pratigya's return with the dreadful thakur Sajjan Singh, let's take a look at some more antagonists of TV:

2/9

Anupam Shyam as Thakur Sajjan Singh

The name Thakur Sajjan Singh essayed by Anupam Shyam, would send shivers down the spine, such remarkable was his character in the show Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya. The show is making its return after nine years and the teaser featuring Anupam Shyam and Pooja Gor as their respective characters has left the audience counting days for the show to finally go on air.

3/9

Urvashi Dholakia as Komolika

Komolika is an iconic and unforgettable name in the television industry. Portrayed by Urvashi Dholakia in Ekta Kapoor's show, Kasautii Zindagi Kay, she was also known for her expressions, style, her entry music and vibrant sarees. For its first, an antagonist had such a powerful entry, and Urvashi was so good at her role that even after several years, she is synonymous to Komolika.

4/9

Meghna Malik as Ammajji

Meghna Malik played the role of 'Ammaji' in the show, Naa Aaana Is Des Meri Laado, and impressed everyone with her acting chops. She was shown as a strict matriarch who adhered to the age-old traditions of mistreating women. Ammaji was known for her aggressive personality.

5/9

Sudha Chandran as Ramona Sikand

Sudha Chandran is known as an iconic vamp in the TV industry, too. She was seen in Kaahin Kissii Roz as Ramona Sikand. Her stylish bindis and edgy style was the talk of the town, too.

6/9

Usha Nadkarni as Savita Deshmukh

Usha Nadkarni played the role of an evil mother-in-law in the television show, Pavitra Rishta. Her character had several layers to it, who was equally loved and hated at the same time. Her name goes down in history as one of the versatile actors in the telly town.

7/9

Loha Singh in Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo

Sudesh Berry's role of Loha Singh in the show Agle Janam Mohe Bitiya Hi Kijo was a frightful one. He traded young girls and was shown across as a heartless man, who considered women only as objects. Sudesh was well-appreciated for demonstrating such a character onscreen.

8/9

Akashdeep Saigal as Ansh

Akashdeep Saigal better known as Ansh from the popular show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, tried all his ways to destroy the Virani family. Tired of his evil tactics, his mother Tulsi Virani (the hero of the show) shoots him to death. This sequence is still etched in memory of the audience.

9/9

Sanjay Gagnani as Prithvi Malhotra

Hate him or love him but you can't ignore him! This saying goes perfect for Sanjay Gagnani who plays the role of Prithvi Malhotra in Kundali Bhagya. His antics and making girls fall in his fake love trap to fight the Luthras is evil. He has a huge popularity on social media too.
