So some time back, we watched (and a few of us re-watched) a fun filled action, drama and comedy movie : Namak Halal. This starred the superstar Amitabh Bacchan in the lead role. This movie came out in 1982 when Amitabh Bacchan was numero uno in the Bollywood Film Industry. In fact he had so many hits in 1970s and 80s that some media men termed him as "One Man Industry". But well, he is well supported in this movie with actors Shashi Kapoor, Waheeda Rehman, Praveen Babi, Smita Patil, Ranjeet, Satyen Kapoo and others. This movie has some funny and enjoyable songs. The climax scene is kind of a ping pong between the Good ones and the bad ones. Yet fun and wit never stops. Here is the movie link with subtitles :

@RebeccasFarm A different form of entertainment with some famous songs N dance thrown in. Plus action sequences too have a great comic timing.

The movie looks interesting. I'm not familiar with Bollywood movies but I love the movie Three Idiots, it made me laugh and cry at the same time.

@hexeduser22 3 Idiots was a well made classical movie. It gained a lot of audience outside India too.

@just4him Yes it was a good time. These days we are rarely watching a movies. Kids have increased workload of School assignments and Examination pressures.

@grenery8 I didn't go to the movie hall to watch. I would watch on a streaming platform.
