Not Hema Malini, this was real Basanti of Sholay, she is now 75 year old, here's how she looks now
Sholay is going to complete 50 years on 15th August. In such a situation, the film is being released in theatres once again with a new version. This film has given many memories to the audience. Like the story of the film, many dialogues, friendship of Jai-Veeru, many memorable characters, fear of Gabbar Singh, Basanti's chatter, and much more. But do you know who is the real Basanti of this film is, who is 75 years old today? Let us tell you. How Sholay became a cult? When 'Sholay' hit the big screen almost 50 years ago, it created history at the box office. Directed by Ramesh Sippy, this film featured big stars like Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, Jaya Bachchan, Amjad Khan and Sanjeev Kumar. However, there were some action scenes in the film that were not performed by the actors themselves, but by someone else. Hema Malini gave many dangerous scenes in the role of Basanti, but the actor was someone else. Not Hema Malini, but this star was the real Basanti This woman is not seen in the film, but she was the one who performed every difficult stunt of Basanti. Here we are talking about Hindi cinema's first stuntwoman Reshma Pathak. Apart from Hema Malini, she also worked as a body-double for famous actresses like Meena Kumari, Dimple Kapadia, Sridevi, and Rekha. She got the opportunity to enter the world of stunts because of a neighbour who was a stunt director and knew her difficult situation. How much was Reshma Pathak paid for Sholay? Reshma Pathak's father found this work dangerous and refused. Reshma's only aim was to give a good life to her family. In 1968, she did a stunt for the first time for actress Lakshmi Chaya in the film 'Ek Khiladi Bawdi Patte'. It was a dance scene in which the actress had to slide from the stage. Reshma did this scene in one take. She got 175 rupees a day for this work, out of which she used to save Rs 100 and spend Rs 75. Do you know Reshma Pathak's biopic? Reshma Pathan worked in many big films and became a body double for many actresses. But her work as Hema Malini's duplicate in 'Sholay' is still considered the most memorable. Not only this, in 2019, a biopic named 'The Sholay Girl' was also made on her life, which was released on ZEE5. This film shows the story of her struggle and courage, which made her the real 'stunt queen' of Hindi cinema.

Coolie All India Opening Day Box Office Estimate: Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj film takes a Kollywood record opening; Collects over Rs 75 crore
Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and starring Rajinikanth, broke all time opening day records for a Kollywood movie, almost everywhere it released in. All past records have been obilterated and new records have been set. As per early estimates, Coolie has collected over Rs 75 crore on day 1 in India. This is despite clashing with a big release like War 2. If not for the clash, the movie could have collected around Rs 10 crore more. Coolie Opens To India Gross Collections Of Rs 75 Crore Plus, With Around Rs 30 Crore From Tamil Nadu The home state collections of Coolie, look to be in the vicinity of Rs 30 crore, only under Beast and Leo. Beast's collections are the highest because it had permission for early morning shows, unlike Leo and Coolie. The best performance in terms of potential realised has come from the two Andhra states. Despite playing alongside a movie with a tier-1 superstar, it did exceptionally. Infact, it has given War 2 a run for its money in most of the major cities. The same should continue for the rest of the weekend. Coolie Heads To Become One Of The Top 5 Highest Grossing Kollywood Movies Of All Time Coolie's word of mouth is on the mixed side, limiting its potential for record lifetime numbers. The extended weekend though, should propel the movie to a very safe position. Despite the mixed reception, it is likely to end as one of the top 5 Kollywood grossers of all time. For those who don't know, the highest grossing Kollywood film record remains with Rajinkanth 's 2.0. Rajinikanth is already busy with his next movie Jailer 2. Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, the dark-comedy is already one of the most hyped Kollywood films, much like Coolie. The movie releases in 2027 but a confirmed date is still unknown. As about Lokesh Kanagaraj, his next movie is Kaithi 2. He also has a movie with Aamir Khan in the pipeline. Coolie In Theatres
