As the Kala chashma track from Baar Baar Dekho rules the charts and dance floors, we at t2 thought we should have our share of fun too! Here is a list of characters and people IRL (in real life, of course) who flaunt dark glasses with swag. 

NUMBER 2

A Cartoon Network character, the tiny spy Number 2 from Codename: Kids Next Door is seen kicking baddies’ butts while donning those black glasses.

RAJINIKANTH

Whatever Rajinikanth does, he does in style. His signature look includes dark glasses and a cigarette dangling from his 
lips. We cannot get over his cool Kabali look too! #Thalaiva

TOM CRUISE IN TOP GUN

Black Aviators have never looked better than on Tom Cruise’s Maverick.

JOHNNY BRAVO

The narcissistic Cartoon Network hero is never seen without his signature dark glasses. He is often seen checking out pretty ladies over them. 

MEN IN BLACK

Will Smith’s Agent J and Tommy Lee Jones’s Agent K rock them dark glasses while fighting extraterrestrial baddies who threaten to destroy out planet. Good job boys, er, we mean men!

M. KARUNANIDHI

The ex-Tamil Nadu CM is rarely seen without his kala chashma. Actually, now that we think about it, he’s never seen without it.

BAPPI LAHIRI

The disco king has created a signature style over the years. Dark glasses + chunky gold jewellery = Bappida ka swag.

SLASH

The guitarist is hardly ever spotted without sunnies, even when he is performing. Without the glasses, his eyes are hardly ever visible, thanks to his hair.

AUDREY HEPBURN IN BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S

Everything about Breakfast At Tiffany’s is iconic. Just look at Audrey Hepburn’s Holly in those oversized Oliver Goldsmith Manhattans! #Class

HEY, TERMINATOR

How can Arnie’s cyborg from The Terminator not be on this list? #I’llBeBack

MATRIX EYES

The entire cast of The Matrix, whether Neo, Trinity or Morpheus, and bad guys like Agent Smith, are seen sporting dark glasses. But if we had to choose a fave chashma, we would choose Morpheus’s as his one doesn’t have handles!

BLADE

The vampire superhero is seen fighting crime wearing sunglasses, even in the dark.
