Today marks the 51st anniversary of the release of the iconic film #Zanjeer (11/05/1973).

Directed and produced by Prakash Mehra and written by Salim-Javed, the film starred Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Pran, Ajit Khan, and Bindu. Released at a time when India was facing issues like corruption and low economic growth, Zanjeer became a turning point for Hindi cinema, shifting it towards a more violent and aggressive direction.

The film not only marked the end of Bachchan's struggling period but also turned him into a rising star. Zanjeer's success led to many subsequent collaborations between Salim-Javed and Bachchan, establishing him as a superstar and inspiring future generations of actors.

Moreover, Zanjeer had a significant impact on South Indian cinema as well, with Bachchan's acting inspiring future Tamil superstar Rajinikanth. Today, Zanjeer is regarded as a classic and an important film in the history of Indian cinema. Let's celebrate the 50th anniversary of this masterpiece and its contribution to Indian cinema.

The lead role in Zanjeer was offered to several established actors including Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Raaj Kumar, and Dharmendra, but all of them turned it down. At that time, Rajesh Khanna was at the height of his popularity as a romantic hero, and the film industry was dominated by romance movies. However, Zanjeer, which did not feature a single romantic scene between the lead pair of Amitabh and Jaya, marked a new direction for Hindi cinema.

Many actors who refused the film were concerned that it would damage their image, but Amitabh Bachchan, who had yet to establish himself as a star, took the risk and accepted the role. As history shows, it paid off, and Zanjeer became a turning point in Bachchan's career, paving the way for his superstardom in the years to come.

#AmitabhBachchan, #JayaBachchan, #PrakashMehra, and others at the muhurat of Zanjeer.

OF 1940'S BOLLYWOOD'S CHILDHOOD FRIENDS -TURNED- (DIRECTIONLESS & LITERALLY NAMELESS) NEW PESHAWARI KIDS ON THE BLOCK! - OF VASUDEV & RANBIR ! ... OOPS ... YUSUF KHAN & SHRISHTI NATH ! ... OOPS ... DILIP KUMAR & RAJ KAPOOR!

Did you know that the Dilip Kumar- Raj Kapoor friendship goes back not just to their childhoods growing up close by in Peshawar, but to literally several generations back, with Dilip's Dad being best friends with Raj's Grand-Dad ie Prithviraj Kapoor's father, their ancestors in fact having grown up in the same locality all life.

Infact 'tis via this friendship with Raj's grandfather, Lala Basheshwarnath, that Yusuf's father came to crystallize his dislike for the acting profession as a whole, letting no opportunity pass by in unabashedly criticizing his friend's son Prithviraj's wayward ways, in front all & sundry incl Yusuf, in a profession that he regarded of loose moral values & low prestige, this outlook also borne of his staunchly orthodox Muslim views on life, also simultaneously being heavily politically involved in Muslim politics, alongside the Ali brothers, & a big supporter of the Caliphate Raj idea itself.

So anyway, once in Bombay to try his luck (for as he narrates, "any job available whatsoever in Bombay Talkies" (the story leading to which we've already narrated in our Dilip Kumar-Ashok Kumar blog), he landed up bagging not just any, but the main lead's role, for which was also offered a certain pretty handsome salary price. But what really set his interest going, was that this sum, was much much higher than the salary being received by his good friend & only person he really knew even remotely from the movies then, Prithviraj Kapoor's son, Raj Kapoor, who he was in regular touch with, & who'd been working as an Asst Director in the same studios for some time too! Which is why, as he humorously recalls, unaware of the (perennial) hierarchy btwn Assts & Heroes, he had to get it re-confirmed from studio bosses, whether this offered sum was a monthly or yearly figure!

Next problem though, remained in informing his father of this new job placement, which he knew, would be totally & utterly against his express & strongly held beliefs! And so, afraid of his father's wrath, decided to not tell his family of his new job placement, as long as he could avoid, a very important turn of events in the story, to what was to follow next - the naming of the new hero, a routine affair in Bollywood back then!

Studio bosses came up with 2 alternative names, Dilip Kumar and Vasudev!

Dilip recalls his immediate reaction being, "Anything but Yusuf Khan pls!"

He amusingly recalls, how he too, just like the whole world, would learn of his new, & forever re-christened name, from the morning papers of a month later. And Dilip Kumar was born!

Also re-birthing his old childhood bond with Ranbir (birth name Shrishti) now re-christened Raj from their kiddy Peshawar days, a time he would fondly recall in interviews many decades later, of those nascent times of 1945-46, when both these to-be pillars were yet wannabes-

Dilip says: "Both us friends lived in constant fear of what'd happen at the studio each next day. And he (that's Raj, being an Asst Director, & incharge of more petty matters) would keep harping on small things & what all could go wrong, & I'd keep scolding him for always bringing it up & spoiling my mood."

Dilip continues- "I also had a fondness for watching good films, many many times...upto 3 theater shows a day, & that repeated for many days, if a film fascinated me enough. While Raj was not of the same view. He found the repetition confusing, moreover and thought it a waste of time. I always defended myself, by pointing to the quality of films (intl & natl) being watched by us here, & the value of our purpose. Anyway, what I imbibed from my observation, as one starting out, was the minimal amount of acting being done. I recall him saying once, "Listen,what we'll do is change it. Do it differently, this & that..", & I immediately reacted, "NO. I WILL NOT DO IT. I JUST WON'T!" "

How was History to know, while one became the grand "Showman"of Indian Cinema, the other would go on to be called the loveliest & among the Greatest Method Actors the world's ever seen!

[ad_1] Rohit Sharma having a discussion with Jasprit Bumrah and Gautam Gambhir. Photo: Debasis Sen Subhayan Chakraborty in Sydney Not only was Sydney gloomy on the eve of the Pink Test at the SCG, but the atmosphere around the Indian team also appeared similarly subdued. With reports of dressing-room unrest dominating the chatter around the fifth and final Test, Team India’s head coach, Gautam Gambhir, declined to confirm whether captain Rohit Sharma would definitely be in the playing XI for the series decider, with Australia leading 2-1. “We will look at the pitch and decide on the playing XI tomorrow,” Gambhir stated when asked about Rohit in the pre-match press conference. From then on, all eyes were on the Indian captain, and it was evident that something was different. Rohit has always been involved in discussions during India’s practice sessions, whether with Gambhir, chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar, or any player in the squad. But on Thursday, he seemed a bit aloof. Soon after the Gambhir press conference, it was Jasprit Bumrah, who had led the team in Perth when Rohit missed the opener due to the birth of his second child, who was seen actively engaged in long conversations with the Indian think-tank. Even before the press conference began, it was Bumrah who took a close look at the SCG pitch, accompanied by Gambhir. However, Rohit soon joined them, and the trio had a long chat while examining the playing surface. After concluding the pitch discussion, Agarkar and Bumrah were involved in lengthy discussions right outside the Indian dressing room, with Rohit nowhere to be seen. As the Indian players, after a round of foot-volley, headed towards the nets, Rohit was seen chatting with Washington Sundar outside the dressing room before engaging in a separate discussion with Soham Desai, the strength-and-conditioning coach. Meanwhile, some players participated in fielding drills, and a new-look slip cordon was in action. Rohit was not at first slip. Instead, Virat Kohli took that position. KL Rahul was at the second slip, joined by Nitish Kumar Reddy and the regular at gully, Yashasvi Jaiswal. For the Latest Sports News: Click Here Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah at the SCG Nets (PC: Debasis Sen) However, the surprising part came next as the players moved towards the nets to practice one last time before the final Test. Rahul, Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and Dhruv Jurel started batting, but Rohit was once again nowhere to be seen. He entered the nets area after 40-45 minutes, only to stand with video analyst Hari in one corner while, at the same time, Bumrah and Gambhir held discussions in another. After a while, Rohit returned to the dressing room, only to come back out to the nets, fully padded up. However, he only faced throwdowns from T Dilip and Dayanand Garani for about 15 minutes before leaving. He didn’t seem in good touch, and his intensity appeared somewhat lacking. After the net session ended, Rohit, Gambhir, and Bumrah were seen having another chat in the gallery outside the dressing room before the team departed for their hotel. This was the first instance during this tour where Rohit was observed to be distant from tactical discussions, at least on the field, with Bumrah taking charge of that role. While the sequence of events does not guarantee that Rohit will be excluded from the playing XI, it certainly suggests that we might be seeing his final days in the Test squad.
