The Warrior: Lord Krishna resorted to his chakra only in extreme cases otherwise, he fought with his mind. Films depicting heroes who fought with the mind were Anil Kapoor as lawyer in Meri Jung and many years later, as one day Chief Minister in Naayak.
The Manipulator: This is one side of the deity that filmmakers shy away from portraying but some who dared were writers Salim-Javed showing Amitabh Bachchan plotting against his illegitimate father in Trishul, and later against his criminal father in Aakhree Raasta. Sanjeev Kumar helps five boys to fight injustice in Hum Paanch the same way Lord Krishna helped Pandavas fight the Kauravas.
