Another great Amitab movie is Anand.I know everyone speaks about Rajesh Kumar in the movie but Amitab is no less awesome .In the end when he hears Babumoshai in Rajesh kumar's voice the expression on his face ..the hope mixed with disbelief ...its simply WOW!!

Um......SS, its Rajesh KHANNA!

Yea Amitabh is also good in it altho u might've heard tat in his early films ppl. hardly like him, esp. when comp'd w/ Rajesh........
And btw, if u noticed a strange directional "trick" in this movie, in the 1st scene, Amitabh is shown driving a Black Fiat (Padmini type)...there r also 2 guys who comment tat nowadays they see only cars instead of cycles......
But in the scenes after tat thruout the movie, Amitabh is shown driving a much older ('50s) Fiat w/ a carrier on the roof, altho in the same Black colour.....!

Oh yea, I find so far nobody's mentioned Amitabh's history b4 his acting days.......I read abt it in his interview w/ RD last year.......the most interesting part I find is tat he first got a job as an executive in "Blackbird & co." in Calcutta & was provided a co. car, a Morris Minor, which was later replaced by a Standard Herald!

'wonder how he cud fit comf'bly into tat car tho, being so tall! (I rem. Heralds were driven mostly by short ppl.!)....
He then left said job in 1968/69, determined to be an actor & moving to Bbay w/ only a few belongings besides his driving liscence!
