A
Wednesday
(2008)
Naseeruddin
Shah
starrer
A
Wednesday
changed
the
way
we
look
at
thriller
movies
forever.
Every
scene
in
the
movie
made
the
audiences
sit
on
the
edge
of
their
seats
and
Naseeruddin
gave
out
a
stellar
performance
in
this
one.
Sparsh
(1980)
Naseeruddin
Shah
and
Shabana
Azmi
starrer
Sparsh
touched
the
subject
of
visually
impaired
people
and
is
one
among
among
his
most
memorable
movies.
The
struggle
which
Naseeruddin
and
Shabana
go
through
to
be
one
in
love,
moved
the
audiences
emotionally.
Only
an
actor
like
Naseeruddin
could
pull
off
such
a
difficult
role
with
this
much
ease.
Ijaazat
(1987)
The
Naseeruddin
Shah
and
Rekha
starrer
Ijaazat
was
a
powerful
movie
back
in
the
day
that
dealt
with
feminism,
equality
and
touched
the
subject
of
patriarchy,
which
was
rare
during
the
80s.
Filmfare
wrote
about
the
movie,
"Can
anyone
not
be
moved
by
it?"
Aakrosh
(1980)
Aakrosh
was
a
sarcastic
yet
bold
movie
which
took
on
the
corruption
in
both
the
political
and
judicial
system
in
our
country
and
showcased
how
the
underprivileged
are
victimised
by
the
rich
and
powerful.
Apart
from
Naseeruddin
Shah,
the
movie
also
starrer
Om
Puri,
Amrish
Puri
and
Smita
Patil.
Albert
Pinto
Ko
Gussa
Kyoon
Aata
Hai
(1980)
Albert
Pinto
Ko
Gussa
Kyoon
Aata
Hai
is
well
renowned
with
Naseeruddin
Shah
and
people
even
to
this
day
poke
fun
at
him
whenever
he
gets
angry
and
relate
it
to
his
role
in
Albert
Pinto.
He
successfully
captured
the
angst
of
the
working
class
in
the
movie
who
assume
that
'if
you
work
hard,
you
will
become
rich'.
The
movie
was
loved
by
one
and
all
and
had
a
very
good
message
in
the
end.
Katha
(1983)
Katha
was
an
instant
hit
among
the
masses
as
it
touched
on
the
subject
of
a
working
man
in
Mumbai
living
in
chawls.
Naseeruddin
played
the
role
of
the
hard-working
commoner
and
acted
exactly
like
one.
The
movie
had
a
deep
meaning
in
terms
of
the
hare
and
tortoise
race,
which
left
the
audiences
wonder,
that
even
though
the
tortoise
won
in
the
end,
was
it
worth
the
wait?
Droh
Kaal
(1994)
Naseeruddin
Shah
played
the
role
of
an
anti-terrorism
task
force
officer
who
is
working
on
Operation
Dhanush,
which
was
set
to
eliminate
terror
related
activities
around
the
country.
The
storyline
is
gripping
and
Naseeruddin
made
the
audiences
bite
their
nails
with
his
acting.
Droh
Kaal
is
remembered
as
one
among
his
best
movies
too.
Ishqiya
&
Dedh
Ishqiya
(2010
&
2014)
Ishqiya
&
Dedh
Ishqiya
were
Naseeruddin
Shah's
recent
movies
which
also
starred
Arshad
Warsi.
The
film
boasted
of
top
class
acting
by
Naseeruddin
and
even
the
younger
generation
got
a
taste
of
his
acting
skills.
If
there
was
no
Naseeruddin
Shah
in
these
movies,
we
would
have
seen
it
in
a
very
different
light
altogether.
Nishant
(1975)
Nishant
had
top
class
actors
such
as
Naseeruddin
Shah,
Girish
Karnad,
Anant
Nag,
Shabana
Azmi,
Amrish
Puri
and
Smita
Patil.
Despite
the
movie
was
filled
with
such
amazing
actor,
the
one
that
stood
out
from
them
all
was
none
other
than
Naseeruddin
Shah.
Paar
(1984)
Naseeruddin
Shah's
performance
in
Paar
will
always
be
remembered,
as
it
was
way
beyond
belief.
The
film
revolved
around
the
exploitation
of
farm
workers
in
rural
Bihar
and
how
they
break
free
from
the
chains
of
their
landlord.
