The actor lists his pick of flicks...

Terminator 2: I was (and secretly still am!) obsessed with Arnold Schwarzenegger. I think it's the best action movie of all time with unbelievable visual effects. It's been 19 years and the special effects still seem relevant. There are so many scenes that are memorable and that have inspired filmmakers for years to come. Plus it had a silver shape-shifting cyborg ! What more does one need?

Andaz Apna Apna: It was and probably still is the funniest film ever. It's a movie that you can watch again and again and still find something new (and old) to laugh about. Salman and Aamir were great together! When Prem tries to propose to Raveena only to find himself making unusual visits to the loo or when Amar is forced to gobble mirchi ladoos. "Sir, yeh Vasco da Gama ke zamane ki gun hai." And who can forget Crime Master Gogo -- the crossdresser between a pirate and a superhero.

A Streetcar Named Desire: Marlon Brando! The man who changed everything. He showed the world something they had never seen before, with intensity, vulnerability and strength.

Of course you can learn acting but every once in a while someone comes along that shows you something you just can't learn. It was one of the most controversial and morally repugnant films of its time. Drama, insanity, domestic violence, homosexuality and female promiscuity, all this was unheard of. A pathbreaking film in more ways than one.

Satya: It was an eye-opener coupled with entertainment. It showed the unadulterated side of Mumbai. Gang wars, murder, extortion and the murky lanes of Mumbai. One of the best underworld thrillers from Bollywood. It's sleek, edgy, dirty and gripping. What really got to me was how believable the cast was.

American History X: Other than Edward Norton's amazing performance, this movie gave me an insight into another world. It gave me a way to see how life is lived with all the racial divides in America. That's one reason for me why movies are so amazing -- they show you worlds so distant from your own. Norton can easily convince the world of his neo-Nazi role.
