Here’s my theory: A local boy had a great talent and went to Bombay where he became the Greatest Hair Stylist of All. But then his mother got ill so he had to go back to the village. Out of boredom, he offers free haircuts to all the locals and never does the same style twice.

In Varsham, the Prabhas movie this is an almost scene by scene remake of, the little kid is his nephew/cousin I think. Which makes more sense than “random kid I like”
LikeLike
It’s so similar with the yaya thing and the kind of scenes they have together and the way they are filmed. IDK if the Prabhas film has that too but if so they probably got that from Hatya too (or, giving them tons of credit, whatever giallo Hatya stole that from). In Hatya, it’s a random orphan he adopts because of spoiler reasons.
LikeLike
I just remembered Hatya is a remake of a Malayalam film, but haven’t seen it. So probably they all got it from there.

I am conflicted. As you said Evil Dude killed his own father. But Father basically sold his daughter to the highest bidder where she will likely be abused for life and have a slow death!
LikeLike
Hmmm, so he would be less evil if he killed her?
LikeLike
I think what I’m getting at is killing someone is obviously bad, but what about actions that basically end up killing someone? Father sold his daughter. Evil Dude went from being creepy polite to having no qualms about physically abusing Shraddha and everyone knew that was coming! If Shraddha marries Evil Dude she will either die from abuse or die to escape from the abuse or just be scarred for life. (Sorry that’s dark!) All the signs were there from the the beginning. So what’s worse? The person who is clearly evil or the person who willingly sells his own daughter to someone who is evil?
