Who is the writer of the classic movie Don

Released in 1978, Don is an Indian action thriller movie that has left an indelible mark on the history of Indian cinema, especially for its great story, performances, and songs. The movie,directed by Chandra Barot, was a big success at the box office and is celebrated even now for its gripping storyline, memorable characters, and iconic dialogues.

On the other hand, what truly made Don stand out was the exceptional screenplay, which was written by the legendary writers duo Salim-Javed. Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar, commonly known as Salim-Javed, are the masterminds behind some of the most iconic and classic films in Indian cinema.

The movie has some of the most famous songs, which are famous even in today’s time. ‘Khaike Paan Banaraswala’, ‘Main Hoon Don’, and ‘Yeh Mera Dil’ are some of the best songs from the cult movie Don.

The classic movie Don was remade in 2006, starring Shah Rukh Khan in the lead roles of Don and Vijay. Salim-Javed’s writing for Don is a masterclass in crafting a compelling narrative with complex characters. The legacy of Don has a huge contribution from Salim-Javed’s powerful screenplay, plus the icing on the cake is Amitabh Bachchan’s spectacular performance.
