Zanjeer To Agneepath: Best Action Movies Of Bollywood Shahenshah You Must Watch Once

No matter how old the ‘angry young man’ of Bollywood gets, his movies are evergreen. The love for his films is flexibly passed on from one generation to another because of their relatable angle for every era.

What stand out the most are his action films. The action of that era was raw, with visible rage and realistic, relatable issues. The fury was a consequence of an issue inspired by reality rather than being fictional and for entertainment purposes.

Here are the most rip-roaring, action-packed and entertaining movies that the Shahenshah of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan has led with his compelling attitude.

1. Zanjeer (1973)

Big B is believed to be a god by the masses and we know that ‘Zanjeer’ is a reason why. In this gem of a move, he chose to amplify the oppressed voices of the ordinary people against the system. With his transparent acting and thrilling action scenes, Zanjeer has become one of his must-watch films.

2. Don (1978)

From being the voice of public to delivering a stone-hearted and evil character of don, it is only Bachchan sahab who can keep up with that kind of dynamic. The best hero of his era of films, he also turned out to be the best anti-hero. Don (Farhan Akhtar Announces Don 3: Ranveer Singh Steps Into SRK's Shoes, Watch First Look) is no ordinary villain, he is unbeatable because he is always a step ahead of the police.

3. Agneepath (1990)

The real essence of this film never lied on the box office collections it made, as it failed to please the audience immensely with perplexity in the air. However, due to Bachchan’s commendable portrayal of Vijay, the critics compensated the film with enough praises. Agneepath is a revenge noir where the protagonist rises to the levels as the killers of his father to defeat them.
