Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

1977 was peak masala year—this film dropped the same year as Amar Akbar Anthony, making the Shashi Kapoor double feature a very real threat.

Insight

The 'actor accused of murder' plot let Shashi Kapoor wink at his own celebrity while performing maximum melodrama—meta before Bollywood knew the word.
