香港動作電影
"Deewaar" had an influence on Hong Kong cinema and in turn Hollywood cinema, by playing a key role in the creation of the heroic bloodshed crime genre of 1980s Hong Kong action cinema. "Deewaar", along with several later 1970s "angry young man" epics it inspired, such as "Amar Akbar Anthony" (1977), had similarities to elements later seen in 1980s Hong Kong heroic bloodshed films.
