Today (24 october) is the birth anniversary of Jeevan, one of the major villains of Hindi movies from 1950s to 1970s.
Villains of Hindi movies typically concentrated on torturing the lead actors rather than lip syncing songs, and so there may not be too many songs that could be said to be picturised on them.

The nine day festival of Navratri began yesterday (16 october) and it will run till 24 october. This festival is celebrated in different parts of the country in different ways.
