7 Bollywood Characters We Just Won’t Forget. Ever!!!

Bollywood is over 100 years old and we have been gifted with some great content over the past years. From mind-blowing story-lines to songs that have become an inevitable part of our lives, Bollywood will always be a treasure shared by all. Let’s be real we all have jammed to songs like “Jumma chumma de de”. The song comes up and hell-yeah! we all sing along. That’s my jam. However, besides songs, Bollywood has introduced us with some of the most iconic characters of all times. These characters won our hearts not only because of their dialogues but their overall personality. Let’s list down 7 most memorable Bollywood characters of all time.

Baburao Apte

Had to begin with this one. From his chunky glasses to his inimitable personality, Baburao Apte came to life in ‘Hera Pheri’ in the year 2000.  You can already hear his voice in your mind, can’t you?
