Om Puri, who died January 5, was among the most talented and versatile actors in the Indian film world. Starting his film career in 1972, he belonged to the
parallel cinema movement in the 80s which produced some of the most
outstanding films exploring various aspects of the Indian society. Om
Puri along with Amrish Puri, Naseeruddin Shah, Shabana Azmi, Smita
Patil, Kulbhushan Kharbanda and Raj Babbar were part of the new wave who
revolutionized the Indian film industry by setting higher standards
with their superb performances and dialogue delivery. Together they
smashed the cult worshiping of heroes and heroines of ‘70s and ‘80s who
dominated the Indian film scene not necessarily by their acting talents
but more by their looks.
