'Zanjeer' was a 1973 Indian crime action film, written by Salim-Javed. It starred Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Pran, Ajit and Bindu. The film changed Hindi cinema's trend from romance films to crime action films, and pioneered Bachchan's new image of a brooding but explosive person who fights back when cornered, known as "The Angry Young Man." In 2013, the film was officially remade with the same name. The film marked the Bollywood debut of Tollywood actor Ram Charan in the lead role along with Priyanka Chopra. The film received mixed to negative reviews from the critics. Despite having such strong actors, the film failed to attract an audience. Although the film was shot simultaneously in Hindi and in Telegu, bothe versions tanked at the box-office. by Alisha Alam
