Definite...Perpendicular...Tangent

Gangs of Wasseypur's characters have become famous like anything. If you have seen the trailer, I am sure you must be a lot more curious to know why they were named so. (See the video to get a glimpse of all the characters)

Definite Khan

                               Definite 

Sardar Khan's son from his second wife kept his name with just one "Definite" aim, which was to see Sardar Khan dead. Now that Sardar was dead, Definite wanted to have the control over Wasseypur area which his step brother had for long. Definite was inspired from Salman Khan and considers himself as the Don of the upcoming time. He rides on his bike wearing a black leather jacket most of the times. He is very cruel, furious at some times, and it doesn't matter to him on whose side he is in  unless and until his goals are being satisfied.

Perpendicular

Babua a.k.a Perpendicular Khan was the youngest son of Sardar Khan. Actually he was the one who was en-cashing on the goodwill of his brother, Faisal. He will rob a jwellery shop in such an easy going manner like no one can ever touch him. He would even never pay for his purchases made in the local shop (will even ask for money if the item is out of stock because then he has to buy from some other place). His name was so because of his mastery in hitting the blade perpendicular which causes a quick death to anyone's life.

He had a sudden friendship with blade and use to move his tongue like it was biscuit (and not blade) moving in his mouth.

Perpendicular was fond of Sanjay Dutt and got his hairs highlighted in golden colour just to follow his superstar.

But causing so much pain in every other man's life can lead to having enemies all over your circle. And eventually he had to pay that price.

Tangent

Nothing much about the character other than just he was used to support Perpendicular and Definite (not in literal terms though). Tangent was the best friend of Perpendicular who earned his name because he use to hit the blade tangent to his target's skin. Tangent was to Perpendicular what Circuit was to Munna Bhai.

He later joined Faisal's gang and helped him to kill his enemies.
