Great Movie... Everyone should have seen this movie at least one time ! I bought this movie on
DVD now, although I am not a big fan of elder films... i love this film, and especially the dialogs
of GB ! For all Amitabh fans its a must have movie ! The whole story is really good and the
movie has a flair of an American western. Even the sound of Sholay and the atmosphere which
is given to the watcher are one of the best i have seen in Bollywood. I have heard, there will be
a remake of this film, but I think it could not be as good as the original Sholay. All because of
the actors like Amjad Khan who was born for this role. This film is one of bollywood's best
movies ever.
