Burning Train(1980), Dhund(1973), Andar Bahar(1985), Jawab (1985) and 36 Ghante (that monkey faced Dilawar Khan) were best of villain roles of Danny. Burning Train villain was full of jealousy whereas 36 Ghante's Dilawar was a cold-blooded ruthless killer.

It was and is probably is still the only truly realistic adventure movie so far made in Bollywood<br /><br />b. The second reason is personal. I had my fav babe Asha Sachdev in it.
