Unusually Amitabh

Black (2005)

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's superbly shot reworking of The Miracle Worker cast Amitabh as the British-accented Debraj Sahai, a tough teacher brought in to properly school the blind, deaf and dumb Michelle McNally (played by an excellent Ayesha Kapoor when young, and eventually by Rani Mukerji).

The trials and tribulations of the teacher and student continue, and as we finally see in the film's finest scene, they develop feelings for one another. That kiss is the moment where Black hits its crescendo.
