Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Dara Singh parlayed his international wrestling fame into Bollywood stardom, becoming the go-to strongman for mythological and Arabian Nights adaptations in the 60s-70s.

Trivia

Helen's 'Mehbooba Mehbooba' number from Sholay released the year before—this film clearly hoped to cash in on her newly minted cabaret-icon status.
