Baghban- Amitabh Bachchan's endearing role of a romantic husband in his 60's worked wonders and the film showcased the versatile talent of Big B even at the dawn of his career.

The film won rave reviews not just from the elderly, but even the youngsters.

Portraying an incredibly complex character in the film with panache, Amitabh Bachchan received Best Actor award at the 53rd National Film Awards.
Sarkar- The character, which bore strong resemblance with the legendary filmmaker Francis Coppola's ‘Godfather', Amitabh Bachchan pulled a stunner out of Ram Gopal Varma's ‘Sarkar'.

Paa- One of Amitabh Bachchan's another path breaking film, ‘Paa' saw Big B play son to his real life son! The film was based on a rare genetic condition known as Progeria and placed emphasis on a father-son relationship.
