This imposing veteran actor from Dehradun, India is mostly known for his work in Bollywood during the 1980s and 1990s, portraying demonic characters. His strong features plus the right lighting gave him a striking and frightening appearance.Even though he is not known as a full-fledged actor in Bollywood, his identity as a demon and zombie has won him many fans. Some communities have created a fan following for him through social networking sites such as Orkut and Facebook. He had graduated as a Civil Engineer in 1974 from Roorkee University, which is now known as the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. His enterprising personality had made him the representative in sports in his school and college by the age of 19. In Roorkee University, he had fought for the students rights as General Secretary of the youth council. At that time, the students were compelled to wear white as the earlier aristocratic British class, which was objectionable as many students couldn't afford it due to their backgrounds. After he had completed his graduation in Civil Engineering, he traveled to Bombay (Mumbai) with only Rs. 100 to pursue acting.Although most people wouldn't know him by name from his films, he is surely known by his intimidating looks to most. Some of his most popular films were Purana Mandir (1984), Bandh Darwaza (1990), and 3D Saamri (1985). He also starred in a few Hollywood films such as La reine des bandits (1994), Such a Long Journey (1998), and Le livre de la jungle (1994). Some of his films are telecast regularly on popular television channels.Following his cameo in Mallika (2010), Anirudh Agarwal has been enjoying a private life with his wife and children and may return to the screen if a future project interests him.
