Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, who has been acting in Bollywood films since 1975, has worked in numerous films till today and is still counted as one of the finest actors in the industry.

In his over thirty year long Bollywood career, the actors would have 30 more films if there were no distribution problems. The 60 year old Shah was quoted saying that he could probably make the world record of maximum number of unreleased movies.

Naseer added that some of these unreleased movies were not very good but even a bad films involves lots of hard work. He informed that these movies have finished dubbing, mixing and even they are ready with the prints. So the veteran thinks they deserve to be released.

The oldest unreleased film of Shah was made by renowned director Mrinal Sen. The film also starred two other veterans Om Puri and Shabana Azmi. Speaking about this, Shah said that it was shot in Jaisalmer 25 years ago and he and Om grew beards for over a year to get into the skin of their caveman-like characters.

One of his action-adventure films titled Valley of Flowers was also not released even after four years of completing it.

Speaking about the solution of this, Shah said that the makers should think of this from the beginning. The filmmaking process faces so many problems during the post production stage that sometimes they forget about how to release it, Shah added.

We hope, the distributors are listening to the veteran and some of them come out to release those long pending films!
