The 1983 movie featuring Amitabh Bachchan in a triple role is truly a treat for his fans. Amitabh has done many double roles in his career, but his work in Mahaan stands out as he is one of the rarest stars who managed to nail the triple role and make it look convincing.
S Ramanathan directed Mahaan (1983), known for his work on Bombay To Goa. The movie features stars such as Waheeda Rehman, Parveen Babi, Zeenat Aman, Ashok Kumar, Amjad Khan, Kader Khan, and Aruna Irani. The main attraction of the movie was Amitabh Bachchan in a triple role.
Hema Malini exited film due to pregnancy; Parveen Babi took over the role. She shot a few scenes of Mahaan but unfortunately had to let go of the movie.
The movie’s songs became super hits at the time of its release. R D Burman composed its music, and R. D. Burman, Asha Bhosle, Kishore Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan, and Amit Kumar have sung these songs, while Anjaan penned its lyrics. At Amitabh Bachchan’s request, R D Burman specially sang the song ‘Yeh Din To Aata Hai Ek Din Jawaani Mein’ from the movie Mahaan.
Amitabh Bachchan plays a lawyer who is falsely accused of a crime, forcing him to leave his family, in this gripping movie storyline.
