#FilmiFiesta
2015
is
here
and
we
have
put
you
in
charge
of
selecting
your
favourite
actors,
actresses,
etc.,
of
the
year
who
were
responsible
in
making
your
2015
that
much
more
better.
After
voting
for
the
best
Tamil
actor
(hero)
of
2015,
it
is
now
time
to
decide
the
best
villain.
This
year,
Tamil
cinema
saw
the
rise
of
new
baddies
who
gave
tough
competition
to
all
the
existing
villains
this
industry
have.
Interestingly,
2015
also
witnessed
many
establised
heroes
taking
up
the
role
of
the
antagonist,
a
trend
which
might
rule
the
following
year.
Mentioned
below
is
the
list
of
actors
(villains)
who
did
their
best
to
terrify
heroes
and
audiences
alike:
Arvind
Swamy's
role
in
Thani
Oruvan
came
across
as
a
surprise,
for
the
Roja
actor
is
known
for
his
charming
on-screen
characters.
As
it
turned
out,
his
portrayal
in
the
movie
became
one
of
the
reasons
for
the
success
of
this
Jayam
Ravi
starrer.
It
can
be
safely
said
that
Arun
Vijay's
character
in
Yennai
Arindhaal
redefined
the
actor's
role
in
South
Indian
cinema.
Thanks
to
his
power-packed
acting
in
this
Thala
Ajith
starrer,
he
went
on
to
bag
a
couple
of
prominent
roles
in
Telugu
and
a
Kannada
film.
Sathyaraj
went
back
to
doing
what
he
does
best
this
year
and
Isai
was
a
classic
example.
The
movie
also
showed
how
menacing
a
villain
this
61-year-old
actor
can
be
to
today's
generation
who
might've
missed
some
of
his
earlier
films.
Like
Arvind
Swamy,
Karthik
too,
surprised
one
and
all
by
taking
up
the
role
of
a
villain
in
Dhanush's
Anegan.
Thanks
to
the
overwhelming
support
his
character
received,
the
Raavanan
actor
decided
to
make
a
sequel
to
his
1992
movie,
Amaran.
Check
out
the
slides
below
to
see
if
your
favourite
actor
is
in
this
list
of
best
villain
2015:
Parthiepan
for
Naanum
Rowdy
Dhaan
Parthiepan
is
yet
another
actor
who
transformed
himself
from
being
a
hero
to
a
petrifying
villain
in
the
recent
past.
Playing
a
villain
with
a
difference
in
Naanum
Rowdy
Dhaan,
he
managed
to
bring
in
a
lot
to
the
table.
Samuthirakani
for
Paayum
Puli
Samuthirakani
yet
again
proved
his
versatility
by
essaying
the
role
of
a
local
politician
in
this
Vishal
starrer.
His
acting
earned
him
accolades
from
critics
and
fans
alike.
Kishore
for
Thoongaavanam
Kishore's
role
in
Kamal
Haasan's
Thoongaavanam
was
unconventional,
for
the
real
villain
in
him
will
be
revealed
only
in
the
last
few
minutes
of
the
movie.
Having
played
characters
with
negative
shades
in
some
of
his
earlier
movies,
Kishore
had
pulled
this
one
off
with
ease.
Sudeep
for
Puli
Sudeep
had
bagged
a
meaty
role
in
Ilayathalapathy
Vijay's
Puli.
After
playing
two
negative
characters
in
Tamil
(Naan
Ee
and
Puli),
the
Kannada
superstar
will
be
seen
as
a
hero
in
KS
Ravikumar's
upcoming
flick,
Mudinja
Ivana
Pudi.
Vijay
Raaz
for
Kaaki
Sattai
Hindi
actor
Vijay
Raaz
made
his
Tamil
debut
in
Sivakarthikeyan's
Kaaki
Sattai.
Playing
a
corrupt
politician,
he
managed
to
impress
Tamil
audiences
and
hence
might
bag
similar
roles
in
Kollywood,
next
year.
Suresh
Gopi
for
I
Suresh
Gopi
returned
to
Tamil
cinema
through
Shankar's
I.
His
role
of
a
pervert
doctor
was
portrayed
efficiently
by
the
actor,
who
is
known
for
his
contribution
towards
Malayalam
cinema.
