On Monday, Amitabh Bachchan hit the headlines for his sharp-witted responses to trolls who mocked him over his viral cybercrime awareness callertune.

(Yes, sir, I'm a fan too. So??)."

An iconic piece of Indian cinema history is set to return to the big screen — this time, in its original, uncut form. The legendary film Sholay, directed by Ramesh Sippy and first released in 1975, will have its world premiere on June 27 in Bologna, Italy, as part of the Il Cinema Ritrovato Festival. The special screening will take place at Piazza Maggiore, an open-air venue known for showcasing film classics. This restored version includes the original ending — in which Thakur kills Gabbar Singh — that was removed from the original theatrical cut following directions from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). It also features never-before-seen deleted scenes.
