A Gen-Z review of Sholay: 50 years later, still a total vibe
Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra's 'Sholay' is turning the big 50, and guess what? This banger is still vibing with Gen-Z. If you think this film is just your father's favourite that he insists on quoting every Sunday afternoon, think in 1975, Ramesh Sippy's magnum opus is basically the OG multiverse of drama, comedy, romance, and action, minus the CGI explosions. And when you watch it through a Gen-Z lens, you realise 'Sholay' was kind of ahead of its time. advertisementHere's why I think – The original 'IT girl' Before Instagram influencers made being 'quirky but relatable' a trend, there was Basanti. A talkative, self-sufficient, horse-cart-driving queen who could literally run her own ride-share business if Uber existed in didn't need rescuing, except when she was forced to dance in front of Gabbar's gang, and even then, she owned the scene. Her unapologetic personality, endless energy, and the audacity to flirt with Veeru in full public view? Big Gen-Z energy. If Basanti existed today, she'd be rocking neon eyeliner, posting 'POV: you're my Veeru' reels, and running a side hustle selling chai with motivational quotes. (Credit: X/mohsin_ali1508) Jai and Veeru – The bromance blueprint Forget 'Stranger Things'. Dustin and Steve, Jai and Veeru walked so you could run. The friendship between Amitabh Bachchan's Jai and Dharmendra's Veeru was a masterclass in loyalty, banter, and that unspoken 'I've got your back' pulling petty pranks to risking their lives for each other, their dynamic was pure ride-or-die energy. If they were around today, you'd find them sharing a Spotify playlist titled 'Road Trip, but make it chaotic', and roasting each other on Instagram stories while low-key saving each other's lives in let's not forget, Jai gave up his life for Veeru without a dramatic monologue. Just saying, some men don't need to validate their Singh – The original meme villain Before Marvel gave us Loki and DC gave us Joker, Bollywood had Gabbar Singh, played with spine-chilling brilliance by Amjad Khan. His laugh alone could be a No Free wasn't just a bandit; he was an unhinged performance artist. The 'Kitne aadmi the?' (how many men were there) scene? Cinematic gold. His unpredictability made him terrifying, yet his dialogue delivery was so iconic that it became meme material decades before memes Gabbar existed in 2025, he'd be a viral sound on TikTok, with influencers lip-syncing his 'Arre o Sambha' (Hey Samba) line while selling protein Baldev Singh – Stoic and slightly petty Played by Sanjeev Kumar, Thakur was a man of few words but many calculated moves. With his calm demeanour and burning sense of justice, he's basically the 'strong, silent type' every Gen-Z situationship thinks they're twist that he'd lost his arms to Gabbar? Dramatic storytelling at its best. Thakur's final showdown, taking Gabbar down without weapons, wasn't just vengeance; it was poetic justice. And honestly, the man had a drip. Oh, and that white kurta was timeless!Why Gen-Z should careYes, 'Sholay' is long (over three hours), but it's the kind of movie you can snack your way through and still be glued to the screen. It has layered characters, quotable dialogues, and emotional beats that hit harder than a surprise text from your not just a movie, it's a mood board for friendship goals, feminist swagger, villain energy, and epic storytelling. Whether you're here for Basanti's sass, Jai and Veeru's loyalty, Gabbar's madness, or Thakur's revenge, 'Sholay' is the rare Bollywood film that still feels fresh. Just swap the horses for e-scooters, and you could drop it on Netflix today.- EndsMust Watch IN THIS STORY#Amitabh Bachchan#Hema Malini

Made in Rs 1.5 crore, this film was made on PM's suggestion, became blockbuster, earned Rs..., Shashi Kapoor was replaced due to.. Veteran actor Manoj Kumar, one of Indian cinema's most revered figures, passed away at the age of 87 due to heart-related complications. Fondly called 'Bharat Kumar,' he became popular among audiences for his powerful performances, especially in the films based on patriotism. Today, we will discuss a cult classic film of the legendary actor-filmmaker that was inspired by Lal Bahadur Shastri's slogan 'Jai Jawan Jai Kisan.' How Manoj Kumar came with idea of Upkar? Yes, we are talking about the 1967 film Upkar. It was Manoj Kumar's first film as a director and became one of his most loved works. According to reports, after Lal Bahadur Shastri attended the premier of Shaheed, he told Kumar to make a film on his slogan, 'Jai Jawan Jai Kisan.' Reportedly, Manoj wrote the story of Upkar while coming back to Bombay through train. Alongside Kumar, Upkar starred Asha Parekh, Prem Chopra, Pran, Kamini Kaushal and Madan Puri. The song 'Mere Desh Ki Dharti' became one of the most popular patriotic songs, and is still played during Independence and Republic Day celebrations. Rajesh Khanna and Shashi Kapoor were offered a part? According to reports, Rajesh Khanna was first approached to play Manoj Kumar's brother's role in the film. But due to prior commitments, he backed out of the film and then Prem Chopra was finalised. After that, Shashi Kapoor was asked too. The Deewar actor was ready to play the part, but Manoj replaced him as he was worried that portraying a grey-shade character might hamper his status. Upkar Box Office Collection Upon release in theatres on August 11, 1967, Upkar became a commercial and critical success. Made in a reported budget of Rs 1.5 crore, the film grossed around Rs 7 crore, becoming a silver jubilee hit. The film also earned a National Award for Second Best Feature Film and was later remade in Telugu as Padipantalu in 1976.

Australia to India: What this celebrity chef learned about life, hospitality and home
Australian chef Sarah Todd's culinary love story with India extends well beyond cooking. From mastering aloo gobi on MasterChef Australia to embracing Indian warmth and wisdom, she once spoke about how her tryst with India has reshaped her life and values. Ahead of India's Independence Day, let us take a look at the life lessons Sarah Todd has taken from the country. Australian chef Sarah Todd shares a special bond with India.(Instagram) Sarah Todd shares her life lessons from India Sarah has travelled the length and breadth of India to explore the diverse flavours and cuisines it offers. She loves the country's street food. Be it Delhi's Daulat ki Chaat and Shahi Tukda or Madhya Pradesh's Indori Poha, Rajasthan's spicy Mirchi Vadaa or Karnataka's ghee-laden Mysore Pak - she has sampled it all! In a 2024 interview to Health Shots, Sarah Todd spoke at length about how her bond with India has only strengthened with time. 1. The power of ancient wisdom Sarah Todd learnt that food in India isn't just nourishment, it's medicine. She called it one of the most "incredible cuisines". "What to eat in the monsoon, what is good for the body when you have an upset stomach… it's all what I am learning from India. Using natural medicines to heal is something I believe a lot in,' said Sarah. She believes "India has all the answers" when it comes to going back to the roots and using ancient methods for healing. 2. Heartwarming hospitality The more time she spent in India, the more Sarah Todd realised the love and care that goes behind making and serving food. Sarah reflected, 'In India, people really take the time to make sure that you're having a good experience in their country. In Australia, it's a very fast-paced life. We all get caught in a rat race. But it's human connection that we all need.' 3. Togetherness As a single mother, Sarah found new meaning in India's tight-knit community and family values. Talking of Australia, she said: 'We've got into this lifestyle where everyone moves into an apartment, they live alone, they get disconnected from their families... But India has a history of keeping the family together and supporting each other. It takes a village to raise a child, and with time, I have learnt to accept help." Sarah also realized the importance of having community around for the holistic growth and development of her son Phoenix. Her experiences in India helped her value its importance even more. 4. Joy in the simple moments Amid grand restaurants and gourmet creations, India taught Sarah to slow down and savour 'the small things". Sarah told Health Shots: "As people, we always get stuck in wanting more – more money to have a higher status and to be a little bit more famous. But at the end of the day, it is really about being happy and enjoying the small things. I always used to be that way. But for a period of time, you get a little bit lost and go off the path. And then you come back to realising what is the true value in our lives. I think I've learned that from India.' Sarah Todd's reflections are a reminder of the richness of India's diverse culture and how the country's strength lies in togetherness and traditions.
