Namak Halal

(1982)

Arjun Singh (Amitabh Bachchan) has been brought up by his grandfather, Dashrath Singh (Om Prakash) and as a result is totally dependent on his grandfather, and could not even think of leaving him. Years past, Arjun has grown up, and his grandfather wants him to be independent and stand on his own two feet. Arjun reluctantly agrees, and re-locates to Bombay - a big city. He gets a job as a singer/dancer in a hotel and is very loyal to the owner, Raja (Shashi Kapoor). He also looks up to Savitridevi (Waheeda Rehman) who manages the hotel, until he finds out that Savitridevi is his biological mother, and that the Raja believes that she is involved in a plot to kill him.
