Sholay@40: 18 iconic dialogues that will make you watch this film over and over again
On this day in 1975 Indian cinema witnessed something that it had never before. While Jai and Veeru’s dosti completes 40 years, a look-back at Ramesh Sippy’s epic movie Sholay tells you why the people of this subcontinent can never have enough of it.
We know that in this plot set in Ramgarh, finally, Gabbar was arrested, Thakur took his revenge and Ramgarh folks were no longer afraid of Holis. We also know that after Jai died a hero’s death, Radha must be still lighting the lamps in the hope that the poignant tunes of the mouth organ would one day brighten up the flame. And Basanti and Veeru would be riding on Dhanno together happily ever after. Still our heart doesn’t stop yearning to have more of the movie.
Here are 18 such dialogues of the flick that will make you watch it time and again:
Jai (Amitabh Bachchan)
Veeru (Dharmendra)
Gabbar Singh (Amjad Khan)
Basanti (Hema Malini)
Thakur (Sanjeev Kumar)
Jailor (Asrani)
Rahim chacha (A K angal)
Soorma Bhopali (Jagdeep)
