3. The director
• Manmohan Desai
was known for his
family-centered,
action-song-and-
dance films which
catered to the tastes
of the Indian masses
and through which
he achieved great
success. His movies
defined a new genre
called masala films.
4. THE PLOT…
• The film was about three brothers separated during their childhood who
grew up in three homes, adopting three religions.
• Kishanlal (Pran), a chauffeur, takes the blame for a fatal hit-and-run
accident committed by his mob boss employer, Robert (Jeevan), on the
assurance that his family's income will be tripled and their welfare
looked after. He returns from prison to find his wife Bharati (Nirupa
Roy)suffering from tuberculosis and his three sons starving. Seeking
help from Robert for the sake of his family, he is ridiculed, humiliated
and repudiated, until he turns on Robert and tries to kill him. Making his
escape, Kishanlal inadvertently takes a car containing a shipment of gold
bullion. Robert's goons give chase.
Kishanlal goes home to rescue his family — only to find his wife's
suicide note. Unknown to him, she fails and is struck blind. He leaves his
sons in a public park (at the foot of a statue of Gandhi) while he draws
off the pursuing goons. In the car chase that follows he crashes, is
thrown clear of the wreck, and discovers the gold. But by the time he
returns to the park with his riches, his three children have vanished.
Amar, the oldest, has been adopted by a Hindu policeman; a Muslim
tailor adopts the youngest and names him Akbar; and a Catholic priest,
finding the middle son asleep on the steps of his church, fosters him and
names him Anthony.
5. • In revenge, Kishanlal kidnaps Robert's daughter Jenny and raises
her as his niece, using the gold to destroy Robert's business and set
himself up as mob boss instead.
• Amar (Vinod Khanna)becomes a policeman; Akbar (Rishi
Kapoor)becomes a singer; the middle brother, Anthony (Amitabh
Bachchan), becomes a likable, socially conscious scamp who runs
quasi-legal operations and makes God his 'partner' by donating half
his income to charity. The three meet when they donate blood for
an accident victim, unaware that they are related — or that the
recipient is their biological mother Bharati.
• Their lives become entangled in an incredible web of coincidences
and furious action sequences — interspersed with songs — when
Amar's adopted father is seriously wounded and Anthony falls in
love with Jenny, Robert's long-lost daughter. Because of it his
adoptive father, the priest, is murdered. In their pursuit of justice
their paths cross again until, combining efforts, the brothers
discover both the culprit and their mutual heritage.
• In addition to the ongoing feud between Robert and Kishanlal, each
son meets and courts — with greater or lesser difficulty — their
love interests. When the grieving mother regains her sight at
a Diwali festival in honor of Sai Baba, one by one the family is re-
united and Robert, who caused their suffering, is finally imprisoned
8. Their look in movie….

ANTHONY GONSALVES
plays a rowdy
troublemaker with a
heart of gold, as he

soft-spoken and meek.

18. The actor perfectly fits the role of Inspector Amar. Amar becomes a
policeman like his adoptive father. Rahul is apt for the character not only
because he's the son of Vinod Khanna who played the role in the movie,
but also because of his sophisticated look which goes with the
character.
19. The new look of the actor in the movie 'Chillar Party'
somewhat resembles the look of Akbar Allahabadi in 'Amar
Akbar Anthony' which was played by his dad Rishi Kapoor.
20. junior B has the complete traits for being Anthony Gonsalves
played by his dad Amitabh Bachchan. Anthony was a likable,
socially-conscious scamp who runs quasi-legal operations and
makes God his 'partner' by donating half his income to charity.
Abhishek would be the perfect selection for the character.
21. • Katrina is suitable for playing jenny’s
role ,with her typical accent and
beautiful girly looks
22. • New comer anushka sharma suitable for plating
neetu singhs role ,with her bubbly image . She
has appeared in typical indian wear in her
movies.
23. The actress has been blessed with great acting skills. She has always indulged in her
character deeply which is visible in her movies. Her diverse looks make her suitable to be
the common thief and Inspector Amar's love interest, Laxmi in the movie.
24. Mood board for the remake
the mood of the movie will be
a of typical bollywood masala
movie with humour , tragedy and a
little action scenes
