Mr. Natwarlal is a 1979 Hindi action comedy movie. Produced by Tony Glaad it is directed by Rakesh Kumar. The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Rekha, Ajit and Amjad Khan. The music is by Rajesh Roshan, the songs are written by Anand Bakshi, and the highlight of the film was a children's song sung by Amitabh.

Getting Amitabh to sing was a gimmick tried for the first time in this movie. Kabhi Kabhi earlier had Amitabh spouting poetry in a song, but this was the first song he sang in a movie; this was aped by others subsequently in Laawaris, Silsila and Pukar. The name Natwarlal is taken from a famous thug of the 1980s: Natwarlal alias Mithilesh Kumar Srivastava.

Plot

Natwar is a young boy when his beloved older brother and caretaker, police officer Gridharilal (Ajit), is framed for bribery by sinister criminal mastermind Vikram (Amjad Khan). When he grows up, Natwar (Amitabh Bachchan) creates a secret identity for himself, posing as a powerful and mysterious underworld figure named Mr. Natwarlal, determined to slowly but surely exact vengeance on Vikram. This was another 'blockbuster' of Amitabh Bachchan.

Music

The music of the movie proved to be somewhat successful, with the music composed by Rajesh Roshan and the lyric penned by the veteran Anand Bakshi.

Rajesh Roshan was nominated for Best Music Director award for the film; Laxmikant Pyarelal received the award for Sargam that year.
