Prakash MEHRA gave many different kinda films with Bachchan NAMAK HALAAL had him in a fully comic act
The film brought Amitabh and Shashi in a comic film together barring this and DO AUR DO PAANCH they did mostly serious stuff
Their chemistry is awesome always
The film is a typical type and nothing great but Amitabh's village bumpkin act makes it a joyride though at times the director makes him the angry young man suddenly
The film is a typical clichéd 80's cinema but lots of stupidity and melodrama
Prakash Mehra does an okay job Music was a big hit
Amitabh excelled in his comic act and is a pleasure, His monologue with Ranjeet is memorable Shashi looking old and out of shape is decent Parveen Babi is as usual Ranjeet is as usual, Satyen Kapu is okay as the villain Waheeda Rehman and Om Prakash are as usual
