792 Followers 647 Following Reader 📚 | 🍻 Aficionado| 📽️ Enthusiast | Sports Fanatic 🥇| Juggling between @Paperclip_In and @itsQuizzora@JudishRaj @Paperclip_In It was the norm back then in Delhi. I grew up in Delhi. Taking lift on the way back home from school was fine and acceptable and safe. Especially in the hot summer when a Good Samaritan would give you a lift.
@LBohemien38223 @Paperclip_In Hindi movies also had ‘South phobia,’ often depicting characters with exaggerated accents, caricatures, despite their high tolerance and rich culture (including excellent cuisine). Interestingly, many people in today’s north, east, and Konkan actually have roots in the South.
The heinous incident that changed the idea of safety in Delhi forever.
Some of you may know of Ranga and Billa as villains from the cinematic world. But as they say, truth is often stranger than fiction – Ranga and Billa are more real than reel and more villainous than they are portrayed to be. 1/21
This was HORROR . In cinemas too before the movie, this news/ documentary was run
Funny enough but the hinterlands do not consider Keshav Pandit to be pulp. It is considered an underrated whodunnit series that debuted at an unfortunate time when English was gaining prominence but yes Pathak is considered a लुगदी साहित्यकार. No idea how any of that works. Lol!
Surender Mohan Pathak and Ved Prakash are prolific authors, with Pathak boasting over 300 novels to his credit. Prakash is celebrated for creating popular titles like "Vardi Wala Gunda" and his contributions to Akshay Kumar’s famous Khiladi series. 11/20
Know about real Billa and Ranga...

@SuddhasilSiddh1 @Paperclip_In Don was Billa in Tamil . We even have a Kedi Billa …. ranga
Then, we had the legal system that really worked now it's impossible! New India's Ranga-Billa are more dangerous and notorious..🤔

@Paperclip_In @aajtak The kidnapping in Mumbai was a kid of my next door neighbor. He lived near Jamnabai School and walked to the school. Kidnapped on the way, but released.
I was eight and I still remember the collective fear when this story hit headlines. Decades later in college, a flat tyre and no autos forced us to ask for a lift. The man who helped us out by giving us a lift reprimanded us. Haven’t you heard of Billa and Ranga?…

@san1suresh @GabbbarSingh If they had so much support they too would have a channel running, instead they have a YouTube channel because they reported against the govt and tried to show them what is wrong.
@Paperclip_In @neetakolhatkar They were 'trailers' the real ones are more vicious.
Horrific 😵💫 Scared the hell out of all of us teenagers, more so whilst visiting Delhi

@Paperclip_In Distinctly remember the handcuffed and leg cuffed pictures of them in Newspaper .
@Paperclip_In Can’t recall any movie where Ranga Billa were the names of the villains, but those names evoked terror back then. In those days, parents would warn their children to return home from school or tuition before dusk, There was serious lack of safety at that time.
@Paperclip_In None of them had or have any remorse whatsoever. This is just for record.
@Paperclip_In Prof Ashish Nundy interviewed both Ranga and Billa while they were waiting execution. Prof Nundy also interviewed some Vishva Guru. You will find too many things in common .
Such criminals and killers!! Movies glorify them in Hindi and Tamil!!
