The actor lists his pick of flick...

It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World: Stanley Kramer's movie is about a dying thief who spills the beans about a treasure trove that sets a group of people on a crazy race to unearth it. I cracked up while viewing this movie. It's slapstick comedy with all the characters running behind money. How many times haver I have watched this during my younger days? At least a zillion times.


Shreyas Talpade

Ashi hi banva banvi:
Sachin Pilgaonkar's comic caper in Marathi is a hilarious take on landlords, paying guests and disguises. I used to love to mimic the characters. The performances were excellent with an interesting plot to match.

Satte pe satta: I used to find the names of the characters so intriguing --- all named after days of the week. There were the brothers in arms ---- Som, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani. Add to this Amitji's powerhouse two-in-one performance. And I still remember theu00a0 songs and the farmhouse where the movie was set.

Chupke chupke: The Hrishikesh Mukherjee's film was simply splendid. The comedy of errors about a Botany professor and an English professor was a laugh riot. I had even memorised all the witty dialogues.

Sholay: Jai and Veeru's friendship bond was something we youngsters spoke about. And Gabbar Singh's dialogues was part of our daily lingo.
