Don was made in the late 1970s & starred Amitabh Bachchan in a double role, also starred beautiful and most sexy Zeenat Aman and Pran as bad guy. Mr Bachchan plays the lead role of Don.
Don is a smuggler who is dangerous and wanted by police for his illegal activities. He only has one soft spot in his life and that is for the lovely Zeenat who has ulterior motives for being in his life.
Don get killed part way through the film accidentally by police and they find a simple country guy who looks identical to him. Police make a plan to replace Don within his gang saying that he has lost his memory due to some head injury.
To see if he can get way with the cunning plan of the police and how he falls in love with Zeenat you must watch this film for yourself. It is one of Mr Bachchans classic Hindi film which set him upon road for stardom. There are even plans to make new up to date version of this film.
There are some very good songs in this film, one classic song is 'Khaike Paan Banaras Waala" which is very memorable and also "Yeh Mera Dil Pyar Ka Diwana" is a very sexy dance item which all guys will appreciate. The film also has legendary dancer of Hindi films - the seductress Helen.
It is a long film as back in 70s most Hindi films were approx 3 hours long so you might find it difficult to watch it for that long.
I really enjoyed this film and have watched it at least 5 times over the years. If you like Bollywood films and want to know why Mr Bachchan is so famous it is a good film to see.
