Sholay: Arguably the greatest film to ever come out of Bollywood, ‘Sholay’ set the benchmark for buddy comedies and camaraderie when it came out in 1975. The action-adventure, laced with some snappy humour, stars Amitabh Bachchan as the strong and silent Jai, while the brash and loud-mouthed Dharmendra is his perfect foil as Veeru. The ensemble cast, which includes Sanjeev Kumar, Amjad Khan, Hema Malini and Jaya Bachchan, perfectly summed up the Ramesh Sippy directorial. The Jai-Veeru bonding continues to be a cultural phenomenon even today.
