About Sholay: 50th Anniversary

Ramesh Sippy’s classic ‘curry western’ combines exhilarating action, moving drama, hilarious comedy and unforgettable song and dance sequences to create one of the most beloved of all Hindi films.

With its star-studded cast, led by Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra, Ramesh Sippy’s extravaganza about two small-time crooks who take on the dreaded Gabbar Singh became the highest-grossing Indian film of all time. Fifty years on, this magnificent restoration restores the film’s original ending, presenting Sippy’s full vision for the very first time.

Includes 15 minute interval.
