There have been some Bollywood films that have given amazing performances on screen. Some films stay at the box office for many months. Today we are going to tell you about a Bollywood film that stayed on big screens for three months, and became huge blockbuster of that year, who is now referred as a classic of all time. Which film is this?
We are talking about the film 'Qurbani', which was released in 1980, now referred to as a great example of the golden era of Bollywood. In this film, the pair of Late Feroz Khan, Late Vinod Khanna and the evergreen beauty, Zeenat Aman won the hearts of the audience. This film remained full in the theatres of Bombay (now known as Mumbai) for three months and rocked the box office.
What is the storyline?
The story of this romantic thriller is filled with action, romance and drama. The plot of this film revolves around two friends, Rajesh (Vinod Khanna) and Amar (Feroz Khan), and a dancer, Sheila (Zeenat Aman). The songs of the film, such as 'Aap Jaisa Koi' and 'Laila Main Laila', became superhits at that time and are still loved by people. Zeenat Aman's charming style, Vinod Khanna's pathbreaking acting and Feroz Khan's style were very much liked by the audience. When Feroz Khan sacrificed his Mercedes
One of the standout moments in the film was Firoz Khan's fervor. In a particular scene, Firoz chose to destroy his brand-new Mercedes car. This moment was filmed in a parking lot alongside Amrish Puri. Back in 1979, spotting a luxury car like a Mercedes in Mumbai was quite uncommon. Firoz made the bold decision to sacrifice his new vehicle to create a memorable scene. His gamble paid off, and this moment became the most discussed aspect of the film. Firoz Khan not only directed this movie but also took on the role of producer. More about Qurbani

Is Saiyaara's viral title track copied from One Direction's Night Changes? Tanishk Bagchi spills the truth

Saiyaara title track: The title track of Saiyaara has taken the internet by storm, but it hasn't been without controversy. Many users have highlighted its noticeable resemblance to One Direction's hit song Night Changes, sparking widespread speculation online. As debates grew over whether the song was inspired by or copied from the original, composer Tanishk Bagchi stepped in to address the rumours and set the record straight. Is Saiyaara's viral title track copied from One Direction's Night Changes? If you're a One Direction fan, then you've surely heard Night Changes, one of the band's most popular and record-breaking tracks. This comes amid all the buzz surrounding Saiyaara. As soon as the Saiyaara title track was released, many felt its tune was strikingly similar to One Direction's Night Changes. Some even accused the makers of copying the song and lacking originality. However, now, the singer of Saiyaara's title track Tanishk Bagchi has set the record straight. In a recent interview with India Today, Tanishk Bagchi finally addressed the controversy surrounding Saiyaara and its alleged similarities to One Direction's Night Changes. Breaking his silence, Bagchi stated that no matter what he does, people will always find something negative to say, claiming, 'They don't have anything better to do. They keep on looking for opportunities to put me down.' He went on to explain that Saiyaara is following its own path and resonating with listeners. Regarding the comparisons, Bagchi acknowledged that while the chords may be similar, the melody has a unique identity. 'The A minor scale has just about 3–4 chords, but every melody has a different soul,' he said. Once known primarily for remixing classic songs, Bagchi also pointed out that creating a hit is never easy, even when drawing from familiar elements. He emphasized, 'All said and done, we didn't steal anything. The similarities are fine, it can happen, but it's not like we did it on purpose.' Addressing the plagiarism claims directly, he clarified, 'Idhar se utha ke udhar nahi kiya (We didn't pick something from there and paste it here). We worked on the emotion of the song, and that worked. That's the magic of Saiyaara.' Saiyaara box office collection On Monday (day 11), Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's Saiyaara saw its lowest single-day collection yet, earning Rs 9.25 crore, a steep 68.33% drop from Sunday's Rs 30 crore haul. This marked the first time since its release that the film's daily earnings dipped below the Rs 10 crore mark, as per data from industry tracker Sacnilk. Following a record-breaking opening week with a total of Rs 172.75 crore, Saiyaara entered its second week with steady momentum. The film collected Rs 18 crore on its second Friday, followed by a strong weekend performance with Rs 26.5 crore on Saturday and Rs 30 crore on Sunday.
