Veteran Bollywood baddie Shakti Kapoor has made a career out of playing hateful and sometimes pathetic characters. While his experience and abilities are beyond doubt, it is somewhat...umm... difficult to imagine Kapoor as a sex symbol.

However, according to a press release sent out by PR agency Shamrock Communication, the 56-year-old actor was mobbed by a "barrage of girls" while out shopping at a mall in Delhi.
