How about Sholay 2?
Business Standard
|August 23, 2025
As Sholay has now completed 50 years since its release, an Amul ad celebrated "Poore Pachaas Saal!" of the Bollywood cult classic.
It was undoubtedly a throwback to the three iconic words "poore pachaas hazaar," which actor MacMohan delivered in Sholay.
Such is Sholay magic, truly a part of the Indian psyche. Ramesh Sippy directed the film, Salim-Javed wrote the script, R D Burman composed the music, and Sanjeev Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Amjad Khan, and Jaya Bhaduri, among others, played legendary characters. Everything aligned flawlessly to produce a timeless masterpiece, which, despite winning just one Filmfare award, became a box office sensation. And much more than that. For example, in her book Sholay: The Making of a Classic, film journalist Anupama Chopra cited filmmaker Shekhar Kapur stating, "Indian film history can be divided into Sholay BC and Sholay AD."
