For so many years, I have enjoyed this person doing so many different roles as
a middle aged man to that of a old man, a villain to that of God Yama or a faqir/baba, a servant or waiter to that of a businessman, inspector, principal, advocate, .
and he did all of them so well.
*Perfect Make Up*
Whether he puts on a thin mustache or a thick one or a beard, he does it as perfectly as his acting.
*Best Dialogue Writer*
He is a great dialogue writer as well(in fact he is the only one I know). His dialogues(whether they were said by any other actor or himself) were crucial in a film’s success and used to spellbound the audience and made them think on various social issues.
*Big Contribution to Indian Cinema*
I don’t know about how many awards he got, but having watched so many bollywood movies esp. those released in 1980’s and 1990’s on tv, I can say this:-
If you delete his dialogues and his acts from those movies, little will be left to be called as entertainment.
I think his contribution to Indian Cinema is no less than the three Khans.
*Best Pairing*
He paired best with Govinda(try to remember any of Govinda’s hit comedies and he will be a part of it usually), Shakti Kapoor, Anupam Kher, Johny Lever.
