Clerk is a Hindi movie, which was released in 1989. The film was written, produced, directed by and starred Manoj Kumar alongside an ensemble cast including Rekha, Anita Raj, Shashi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar, Ashok Kumar, Prem Chopra, Sonu Walia as well as Pakistani actors Mohammed Ali and Zeba in their first and only Hindi film appearance. The film did not do well at the box office and was Manoj Kumar's last film directed by him that had him in the leading role. This movie has, over the years, been ridiculed for its awful direction and editing.
