 Amitabh Bachchan's late seventies were a whirlwind. During this period, each of his films was becoming a super hit. Amitabh was very successful in every field like Action, Emotion, Tragedy, Comedy. Many films of Amitabh Bachchan were released in 1978. 'Don' was an important movie among Trishul, Don, Ganga Ki Saugandh, Mukaddar Ka Sikandar, Kasme Vade, Besharam...

It was actually four years in the making. Many events happened during the shooting of this movie. The cinematographer and producer of the film was Nariman Irani. He died during the shooting. When it seems like this movie is closing; All the artists of the film took a huge cut in their salaries and completed the film stubbornly. Released on 12 May 1978 without any promotion as all the money ran out. And a bumper hit.(amitabh bachchan)


The director of the film Chandra Barot recently shared many memories of this film in an interview given to an English portal. In this movie 'Khai Ke Paan Banaras Wala….' You know the story that this song was inserted after the entire shoot of the film. But during the shooting of this song, Amitabh Bachchan's right leg was seriously injured and he also shot this song in that condition. Because in any case this film had to be completed and released as soon as possible. So Amitabh Bachchan shot this song showing professionalism without capitalizing on his grief and enduring great pain. What happened to this story?


The film 'Don' was shown to actor Manoj Kumar after the complete shoot, as Chandra Barot was once his assistant and it was because of him that he got 'Don' to direct. Manoj Kumar praised the film. But he said that in the second half of the movie, the movie becomes very fast paced and action packed. The audience gets absolutely no respite. So put a song in it. Salim Javed actually didn't like the change but everyone insisted so he decided to insert a song into it. And 'Khai Ke Paan Banaras Wala….' This song came in the movie.

Amitabh Bachchan was shooting for two films on the day of shooting of this song. Don's song was to be shot at Mehboob Studios and part of it was to be shot at the actual Dhobighat. The shooting schedule at Mehboob Studio was from 2 pm to 10 pm. On the same day, he was going to shoot a film of Prakash Mehra from seven to two in the morning. The shooting was to take place at China Creek near Ghodbunder Road in Thane. It was an action sequence. Amitabh Bachchan's right leg was injured during this shoot. He also injured his ankle. In such a state, Amitabh Bachchan reached the Mehboob studio limping. After going there, they realized that the song shoot was to be done without wearing any sandal shoes. The leg was in great pain. There was also pain in the ankle due to the sprain. Amitabh immediately called a doctor, took a pain killer injection and started shooting for the song.

If you look at this song, you will notice that most of the shots are long shots. Amitabh (amitabh bachchan) was able to shoot this song by taking pain killer injections. He also ate a lot of Banarasi leaves during the shoot of this song. So the next day Amitabh's tongue was blistered and he could not speak! After the shooting of the song, Amitabh was worried that his leg pain would show on his face, but he felt satisfied after watching Rush. Thus the shooting of the song was completed in the next two-three days.
