Duplicate Sholay

Released On - 26 Apr 2002 2hr 5min

The movie is kind of spoof on the 1975 classic movie Sholay. The story is quite similar but many dimensions and additions are made to it. As before, Tahkur Baldev Singh has been wronged and assaulted by the notorious dacoit Gabbar Singh. He thus takes the assistance of two former convicts namely; Jai and Veeru. However they also bring their friends along to help Thakur. Their friends include Balli, who is a Sanjay Dutt lookalike, Tara Singh, who is a Sunny Deol lookalike and Mithun, who is a Mithun Chakraborty lookalike.

Meanwhile, Lajwanti, who is Basanti’s sister is seeking revenge for her rape by Gabbar. While Basanti dances in Chandni Bar, her sister is hunting for Gabbar. Gabbar is not so east to get their hands on as he is assisted by many bandits along with the Singh brothers Jangal, Mangal and Dangal. There is chaos and comedy in the movie, as all the lookalikes have their own part to play.

The movie is directed by Kanti Shah and produced by Pali. The music is composed by Sawan Kumar Sawan. The cinematography is by Dilip Dey. The star cast includes Anil Nagrath, Vinod Tripathi, Dimple, Feroz, Rashid Khan, Aarif Khan, Mohan, Arun Mathur.
