Amitabh's Most touching movies I have seen

I was never a very big Fan of Amitabh till I grew up. Now I admire his acting more than anybody else. He has defied all norms and has grown to be an all-encompassing superstar. Even today after 30 years, he can make a movie watchable because of his acting and charisma. It is not that I love all his movies, Many of them I have never watched and don't even want to because of typical masala content, but he is a gifted actor who can show a variety of emotions with effortless ease. Here are my top 10 Amitabh movies which I love watching again and again.:

• Deewar- None of my favourite movies list can be complete without this one. It is one of the best work according to me. Each and every scene,dialogue has been crafted so well that it makes huge impact. Amitabh's eyes and expressions are so phenomenal that when I look at him, I only visualize the pains and suffering that Vijay went through. That character he played would remain etched in my heart forever.
• Abhiman-Again one of my favorites! Here he played a grey character. He is not the typical ideal hero, he is rather human who has vices, not so perfect, very fallible, but loves his family. His agony, frustation and attitudinal changes are so perfectly illustrated by Amitabh. He looks a perfect choice for this role. This movie itself is inimtable classic by Hrishikesh Mukherjee.
• Shakti-  Many people try to draw parallel between this movie and Deewar, but if you see carefully, there is a significant difference in the plot as well as Amitabh's character. In Deewar, he was angry at the situations he faced and has no anguish with anyone in his family. Infact whatever he did throughout was out of the angst at the wrongs faced by his family. In Shakti, he could have repeated the same performance, but he chose to do it differently. He is a rather loud guy, who openly criticises and mocks at his father, but has deep angst with the fact that he his not loved. Again this movie is a masterpiece due to the plot as well.
• Saudagar- Fabulous movie! it is a low budgeted one. Amitabh has played an extremely negative character and you would hate him at a point. He seems to be guiltless and very cunning, but after that, his agony is more atrocious than him and he repents without too much dialogues. The helplessness in his eyes speak a lot!
• Akhiri Rasta- It is not a great movie, but has very good direction and fabulous acting by Amitabh. There are multiple revenge dramas on similar lines, but it had a different level of senstivity to the treatment. Be it  father or son, both roles were performed immaculately- even the body language, gaze, dialogue delivery everything was different  from Amitabh Bachchan in that double role. There was required subtlety, restraint and oneupmanship between their relationship.
• Anand- How can we forget this one! One of the best movies ever made on this subject. We needed Amitabh's character to bring out the lively character of Anand. We needed someone like Amitabh to say " 6 mahinon se tumhari bakbak sun raha hun, tumhe uthna padega" to make you feel the intensity of that emotion. The grief of not being able to save lives due to severe conditions-"jiske pas khana khane ke paise nahi hain use dawai khane ke liye kaise kahun" really touched me a lot!
• Sholay- The movie was not so classic but wholesome entertaining! Entire cast was amazing and played some of the most memorable roles of their lives. Amitabh was at his sarcastic best. His sense of humor was titillating but not over the board unlike other actors. He made his mark in a variety of emotions played in that movie.
• Amar Akbar Anthony- Extremely formulaic movie- didnt seem to offer anything new, but still I can see it so many times due to a very adorable Anthony. He made sure in each of his scenes that we enjoy his character -Completely different dimension compared to other movies mentioned here.
• Don- Super Stylish! Amitabh, the don was just too good, that after two revised editions of the movie in the current era, it reaches nowhere close to this movie. Its a quite simple one with brutal and cold gestures from Amitabh. He has amazing presence and even the movie is filled with twists and turns.
• Trishul- This movie is in similar league with Deewar, in some ways. Amazing dialogues, interesting conversations, I have almost memorized every conversation which had Amitabh and Sanjeev Kumar. The love-hate relationship was just too good in every scene. You can see inspiring confidence and what difference can it do when you take control of your life.

Well there are many more, I guess I can write a book on his movies and the way he acted in them.
