One of the greatest movies ever made. It remained special for almost two generations. Dialogues continue to be mimicked and scenes reenacted by artists even today. 😊

This film is an institution in itself. Young talents who want to make it big in films can learn so many things from it. Although it isn't an original story, it is inspired, but the film that has come out is a masterpiece.


Cast, Crew, Music, Action, Dialoges, Screenplay, editing, hardly there is anything in film which isn't loved by all, and that too with the biggest segment of the audience ranging from 10-90 years.


A Cult Classic, hindi cinema's biggest film ever made, whose record and popularity is still a dream to break.

You might be right, after all it is an amalgam four great Westerns in addition to having the great RDB's great music


The Good, The Bad and the Ugly, The Magnificent Seven, Once Upon A Time in The West, For A Few Dollars More...

Each every scene of 'SHOLAY' has been copied exactly from these four movies


Kudos to Sallu's Dad and Shabbu's Husband for coming up with a great end product...
