Written by Salim-Javed and directed by Yash Chopra, ‘Deewaar’ remains one of Bollywood’s most celebrated films. Starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi Kapoor, Nirupa Roy, Parveen Babi, and Neetu Singh, the film revolves around two brothers who take different paths in life–with one becoming a respected police officer and the other turning into a feared underworld figure.
‘Deewaar’, which was released on January 24, 1975, was a massive hit. The film is remembered to this day for its iconic scenes, including Shashi Kapoor’s legendary dialogue, “Mere paas maa hai.”
The film played a crucial role in shaping Amitabh Bachchan’s image as Bollywood’s Angry Young Man and is considered one of the most influential films in Indian cinema. (ANI)
