At an age when most settle into quiet routines, a popular actor from the Indian film industry decided to take a bold step that sparked massive online chatter. Known for his shady and dark characters, he surprised everyone by announcing his wedding at 57 through a simple social media post. What followed wasn't just warm wishes, but a storm of trolling and unsolicited opinions from netizens who questioned his decision. Yet, unfazed by the digital noise, he stood firm in his choice, proving that love and companionship know no deadline. The Most Dreaded Villain Of Bollywood
Here we are talking about actor Ashish Vidyarthi , who is best known for his outstanding negative performances in films, including Ziddi, Bicchoo, Joru Ka Ghulam, Bhai, Kill, Vedaa and many others. Ashish Vidyarthi was born on June 19, 1965, in Delhi, India. Vidyarthi made his acting debut in the film Sardar, portraying V. P. Menon , a character inspired by the life of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel . However, his first released film was Drohkaal , which earned him the National Film Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1995. Over the years, he has acted in more than 300 films across 11 different languages. In addition to acting, Vidyarthi runs a popular YouTube channel with over a million subscribers, where he regularly shares vlogs about food. The Challenging Life Of Ashish Vidyarthi
In one of his vlogs, while discussing his struggles, Ashish stated, 'Why am I even alive? This is a question I have asked myself many times when I felt completely broken, failed, and lost. I know you must have experienced this too—those moments when you felt like giving up on life. This is very personal to me, and I feel like I can openly share this with my family on YouTube today.' He continued, 'As an actor, there are many struggles one must face to make a name in this film industry. I had my share of challenges too. Even after winning a National Award and being appreciated for my work, I soon became a caricature of myself, taking on the same roles repeatedly. It was an absolutely painful time in my life when I was only hired to do what I had done in the past.'
He further expressed, 'During this time, I was at my lowest and even contemplated ending my life. Had I chosen to take that path, people might have said, 'Bollywood failed him' or 'He should have lived because he deserved better'—perhaps a couple of breaking news stories or trending hashtags.'
In 2001, Ashish Vidyarthi married Piloo Vidyarthi, also known as Rajoshi , and they welcomed a son named Arth . However, in 2022, they decided to separate and filed for a mutual divorce. In 2023, at the age of 57, Vidyarthi married entrepreneur Rupali Barua . When he announced his marriage on social media, many netizens mocked him. Despite the online criticism, the couple remained unaffected and are happily married.
