Baazigar

Baazigar

Baazigar (English: Gambler) is a 1993 Indian crime thriller film directed by Abbas–Mustan starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in the lead roles. It is a contemporary thriller about a young man who stops at nothing to get what he wants. This was Shah Rukh Khan's breakthrough role as the sole lead and Kajol's first commercial success. Actress Shilpa Shetty was supposed to debut with Gaata Rahe Mera Dil, but it remained unreleased, and this became her debut film. Baazigar was the first film in which Shah Rukh Khan played the role of an anti-hero and the first which earned Khan a Filmfare Award for Best Actor. Initially this movie was offered to Armaan Kohli and Salman Khan to play the lead role, but they all rejected it as the role had negative shades. Baazigar was a major commercial success upon release, and the first film of the famous Shahrukh Khan-Kajol pair. In addition to box office success, the film's soundtrack album composed by Anu Malik was also a success, selling 10 million units. The film brought actors Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Shilpa Shetty, and composer Anu Malik, to the limelight. It was remade in Telugu as Vetagadu with Rajasekhar, and in Kannada as Nagarahavu with Upendra.

Priya Chopra:
[sees Ajay after having just learned the truth about him] What should I call you, huh? Vicky Malhotra, or Ajay Sharma? Perhaps while you used the deceit of a false name to play this con game you forgot that changing a name doesn't change a man's face and his crime! The heartless way in which you threw my sister down the roof... [begins to cry] no one would ever throw out a broken toy like that! And worse you even pretended to love me? Why? What did we ever do wrong to you? What didn't my father do for you? He made you a part of every happy moment of his life, and this is what you gave us in thanks? Why? If you were so desperate for money, you could've just asked us. We would've given it to you in charity!

Ajay Sharma:
[furious] CHARITY? What money huh? The money that your father's used to crown himself the king of Chopra empire is my fathers! Its mine! Considering the death of his daughter a stain on his reputation, your great father... I know which dirty hole he crawled out off! Do you think your father had anything? He was the one who came to our door as a beggar! And my parents offered him all their support. As payback he took away everything we had! Everything! He brought us to the streets! And imagine! Imagine what that innocent child must've gone through when your disgusting father tried to take advantage of his mother! [Priya is crying in disbelief] Priya, You cant even begin to imagine the atrocities your father brought upon us. You've only seen a crown of wealth on his forehead. Try draining the clothes of his past sometime. You'll find the blood of my ruined father and my innocent sister in them!
