Jagapathi Babu: From bankrupt to riches again!

Jagapathi Babu is the most sought after villain in South India right now. After playing baddie in ‘Legend’ and ‘Nannaku Prematho’, he has become busy for such roles. 

Apart from these two movies, the positive role of a father in Mahesh Babu’s ‘Srimanthudu’ has also been highly appreciated by everyone. As all these three movies become successful, now Kollywood is roping in him as villain in big hero movies.

In Tamil superstar Vijay’s next film (#Vijay60), Jagapathi Babu has already signed to play the main antagonist. In Vishal’s new movie, to be directed by Mysskin, he is the baddie. 

The actor who is in his 50’s is now earning good money once he turned to play character roles or negative roles. Few years ago he almost went to bankrupt for various reasons. Now he is financially stable.
