Chennai Express' Thangaballi, Nikitin Dheer, set to be a baddie again!

Nikitin Dheer, the actor who played the man-mountain antagonist in Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone's Chennai Express, is all set to turn into a baddie again in the upcoming series, Raktanchal and we can't wait!

Best remembered as Thangaballi in the Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone-starrer Chennai Express (2013), Nikitin Dheer features in a dark role in the web series, Raktanchal. He hopes fans appreciate him in the new villainous avatar as much as they did his Thangaballi act.

He even took to his Instagram account and gave a chilling glimpse of his character, Waseem Khan. As always, the actor looks menacing and it seems this is one man that cannot be messed with.

Have a look at his post right here:
