Devender Singh - Bunty Chor
This guy didn't restrict himself to one particular city. From Delhi to Bangalore, Chennai to Mumbai, this guy has been there and done that. Hardly the most picky thief, Bunty did have a particular weakness for fancy cars and luxury watches. And he was a master escape artist as well. He was able to escape his captors with as much ease as he whisked away with people's belongings. With over 500 reported burglaries, his crime spree was finally brought to a halt when he was captured by the police for good. But that just gave him an opportunity to diversify. The movie 'Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye' was based on his exploits and he was even called as a cast member for season 4 of the reality TV show Bigg Boss. But an honest life wasn't enough for him. The burglar soon returned to his thieving ways before finding himself behind bars.
Super thief Bunty, a class nine dropout, began his life of notoriety in 1993 when he was arrested in New Delhi but gave police the slip.
compulsive thief, Devinder Singh aka Bunty's exploits border on the audacious usually. The super thief is a class nine dropout and he began his life of notoriety in 1993 when he was arrested in New Delhi but gave police the slip.
Bunty is reported to have committed over 500 burglaries with impunity across the country. From Delhi to Bangalore, Chennai and Mumbai, almost all the big cities have been privy to his silken craft. He is a master escape artist, giving the police the slip in Delhi, Chennai and Chandigarh after being captured.
The one thing that helped Bunty pull off his audacious robberies was how he tamed dogs, ensuring they hardly came in the way of him pulling one daring theft after other. While Bunty was not very picky about what he stole, he did have a weakness for fancy cars and luxury watches.
He was known to be a compulsive womaniser.
Dibakar Benerjee's movie Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye starring Abhay Deol was reportedly based on his life. In the fourth season of reality TV show Bigg Boss Bunty was one of the contestants.
Oye Lucky plot
Bunty Chor, the thief par excellence, has given the police the slip quite a few times. But in 2008 he was finally captured for real on reel.
Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye directed by Dibakar Banerjee is a black comedy. The lead character in the film goes by the name of Lucky Singh, a loveable thief.
Enamoured by the lifestyles of the rich and famous in Delhi, Lucky socialises with them and then proceeds to rob them.
In the film, Lucky is projected as a modern day Robin Hood with a twist as he robbed both the rich and the poor without prejudice. Nothing was too big nor was anything too insignificant to escape his attention.
The film opens with his trial and charts his rise from the projects of crime ridden suburban Delhi to the very heart of the corridors of power. Along the way he makes lifelong friends, falls in love and manages to outwit the entire law and order machinery.
