Encounter
Parsi men as encounter cops might be unusual in Bollywood, but Naseeruddin Shah attempted such a role in Encounter-The Killing.
Naseer plays a role of a police inspector who accidentally kills an innocent youth in an encounter.
Guilt pangs compel him to look for the family members of the dead boy.
The film was a no show at the box office, despite another fine Naseer performance.
Encounter was one of the films at a time in Naseer’s career when he almost felt like giving up Hindi films.
"The kind of commercial cinema that is being made these days, I will never work in it. I am fed up of Hindi masala films. The very thought of working and watching those films makes me puke," Naseer said in 2002.
