Ram Balram

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div align="left"> <div dir="ltr"> <b><i>Ram Balram</i></b> (राम बलराम) is a 1980 Hindi action film directed by Vijay Anand. It starred Dharmendra as "Ram" and Amitabh Bachchan as "Balram". Supporting cast included Zeenat Aman and Rekha. Ajit, Amjad Khan and Prem Chopra were the villains in the film. The film marked the third time in which Bollywood eternal superstars (Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra) came together after their previous successful ventures in <i>Chupke Chupke</i> and <i>Sholay</i>. The movie had an awesome initial opening, to thunderous responses all over India with cinema houses packed full. However, proceeds from the movie started to drop by the 4th week and it then went on to surface as the third highest-grossing film of the year earning a "Hit" at the box office. It was termed disappointing since at that time, films of Dharmendra and Amitabh were expected to earn more, who were already the most popular stars at the time. However, some box office analysts rate it as a "Superhit" when taking into consideration its net proceeds.<br /> </div> </div> <div dir="ltr"> <br /> <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ram_Balram.jpg"><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/6/61/Ram_Balram.jpg/220px-Ram_Balram.jpg" /></a></div> <div dir="ltr"> <br /></div> <div dir="ltr"> Directed by Vijay Anand<br /> Produced by Tito<br /> Written by Vijay Anand</div> <div dir="ltr"> Starring Dharmendra<br /> Amitabh Bachchan<br /> Zeenat Aman<br /> Rekha<br /> Ajit<br /> Amjad Khan<br /> Prem Chopra<br /> <u>Helen</u></div> <div dir="ltr"> Music by Laxmikant-Pyarelal<br /> Cinematography Fali Mistry<br /> Edited by Vijay Anand<br /> Distributed by Navjeevan Productions<br /> Release date November 28, 1980<br /> Running time 169 mins<br /> Country India<br /> Language Hindi</div> <div dir="ltr"> Soundtrack</div> <div align="left"> <div dir="ltr"> # TitleSinger(s)<br /> 1 "Ladki Pasand Ki" Mohammed Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar<br /> 2 "Ek Rasta Do" Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar<br /> 3 "Yaar Ki Khabar Mil Gai" Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhosle<br /> 4 "Humka Maafi Dai Do" Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhosle<br /> 5 "Balram Ne Bahut Samjhaya" Mohammed Rafi, Dilraj Kaur, Asha Bhosle</div> </div> </div>
