100.00

The dramatic, entertaining story of the dream team that pioneered the Bollywood blockbuster. Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar reinvented the Bollywood formula with an extraordinary lineup of super hits, becoming game changers at a time when screenwriting was dismissed as a back-room job. From Zanjeer to Deewaar and Sholay to Shakti, their creative output changed the destinies of several actors and filmmakers and even made a cultural phenomenon of the Angry Young Man. Even after they decided to part ways, success continued to court them-a testament not only to their impeccable talent and professional ethos, but also their enterprising showmanship and business acumen. Fizzing with energy and brimming over with enough trivia to delight a cinephile’s heart, Written by Salim-Javed tells the story of a dynamic partnership that transformed Hindi cinema forever.
