1. Paa, Despite the make up and despite our preconceived notions, Amitabh managed to make the child shatter across all barriers and descend on us to entertain, enthrall and shed a tear.
2. Piku, Bhaskar Da, An unrestrained performance, Amitji, delivered with a gay abandon. The swagger and actor's relish was there for everybody to savour.
3. Cheeni Kum, Koi Kami Nahin thi, there was nothing left wanting. Can any one be so romantic at 64? What a variety of emotions
4. Aks, I think he made the movie just to enjoy acting with Manoj Bajpai. Some of the sequences with Nanditha Das are unforgettable
5. Sarkar, phew. The look, the posture, the body language, the fiery and intense eyes, wow!
6. Khudaar, not the best of performances, but the whole nation was praying for his life. The nation watched in droves and we went delirious with 'Angrezi mein kehje gain ki, I love you
7. Deewar, Hamare Pass Amitabh hai. The epitome of style n substance. This is the movie that defined Amitabh, the force he is. Thanks to my dad, for allowing me to see this film alone at Little Anand as a 11 year old!!
8. Sholay, Could have been dwarfed by either Sanjeev kumar or Amjad Khan, but stood out solidly, in the midst of a great star cast.
9. Zanjeer, saw the birth of an angry young man. We were in the fifth standard and the lunch time discussions were punctuated by discussions of Zanjeer. It was quite an achievement to have watched Zanjeer in the school circles
10. Namak Haraam/Anand/Chupke Chupke, how can the list be complete without a reference to hrishikesh Mukherjee's film's. HM brought the class out of Amitabh
