# Sholay

Sholay, ( meaning "Embers") is a 1975 Indian Hindi-language action-adventure film, directed by Ramesh Sippy and produced by his father G. P. Sippy. The film follows two criminals, Veeru and Jai (played by Dharmendra and Amitabh Bachchan), hired by a retired police officer Thakur (Sanjeev Kumar) to capture the ruthless dacoit Gabbar Singh (Amjad Khan). Hema Malini and Jaya Bhaduri also star as "Basanti" and "Radha", as Veeru and Jai's love interests. Sholay is considered to be a classic and one of the best Indian films of alltime.
