Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra played the film's leads, solidifying their place in the film industry for all time. However, before its enormous success, the movie didn't do well when it initially debuted in theatres. Ramesh Sippy called an urgent meeting with Salim Khan, Javed Akhtar, and Amitabh Bachchan, as revealed in the documentary Angry Young Men.

Salim disclosed in the series that Javed contacted him to let him know he was terminating the partnership. While both of them had maintained that they drifted apart, Javed has now disclosed that he sensed a "fatigue" in their work and determined it was time for them to move away.

Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar dedicated an enormous amount of focus on "the mother factor" in their highly regarded films, Trishul, Shanti, and Deewar. This may have been triggered by the fact that Salim and Javed both lost their mothers when they were very young, as mentioned in their Prime Video documentary Angry Young Men.

Javed's children from his first marriage to Honey Irani are Farhan Akhtar, and Zoya Akhtar, who are also very close to Shabana. Shabana has been candid about her experience of not having children of her own in previous interviews; she handled this subject with incredible bravery and honesty.

Their wonderful connection, which they still maintain even after 40 years of marriage, is not the only reason for this; it's also because they are outspoken about social and political issues. Since Akhtar was married and had two children at the time, Farhan and Zoya, Azmi's affair with the artist caused quite a stir at first, even though both of their families were artistic and adhered to Communist ideology.

The team most known as Salim-Javed, wrote the scripts for several successful films. Among them were Don, Sholay, Zanjeer, and Deewar, to mention a few. Shabana discussed their split in a recent interview, admitting that she still doesn't know why they broke up.

Today we will talk about an actor who achieved fame and popularity with his blockbuster films but soon came crashing down due to lack of work.
