These mean girls are self-centred, bratty, and can make your life hell. But they stole the show. Read on, loser. And tell us how it wasssss

No. Wait. She did what?

1 Poo in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... (2001).

Kareena Kapoor influenced campus politics with just this role. Poo is rich, spoiled, and so hot, you can't tear your eyes away. Her entourage worships her. She's got more put-downs than she can fill in her tiny tote. She holds a swayamvar to pick a prom date. And when a boy asks, "Hey Poo! Movie tonight?", she delivers Bollywood's best burn: "Tell me how it waaaaaaaaas." How to hate her?

2 Regina from Mean Girls (2004). Regina George is why the movie has that title. Wednesdays we wear pink. No one else can wear hoop earrings. She hasn't signed off on Fetch - it's not going to happen. She was half a virgin when she met her boyfriend. But it's the out-of-Africa Cady, who does meaner things out of envy.

3 Yashika in Class (2023). So much power, and she hasn't even finished her schooling. Yashika has money, style, viral Insta Lives, and more brains than half her privileged classmates. She's a bully too, pointing out everyone's icks. But when Koel, her BFF, has body-image issues, Yashika says, 'Stop fat shaming yourself. It's not worth it." We love a villain who knows where to draw the line!
