Jai And Veeru

Shivraj Singh Chouhan took a swipe at Congress leaders Digvijaya Singh and Kamal Nath, referring to them as 'Jai' and 'Veeru' from the iconic film "Sholay" and alleged they were fighting between themselves over the distribution of plundered booty.

Ahead of the elections in Madhya Pradesh, Congress equated its state president Kamal Nath and senior leader Digvijaya Singh with "Jai" and "Veeru" from the iconic film "Sholay", played by Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra.

Talk of elections, talk about political spectacles. It was a rare political sight for people on Tuesday whenRajasthan Congress chief Sachin Pilot and former chief minister Ashok Gehlot, performed some 'Jai and Veeru' acts from Hindi blockbuster Sholay with Mr Pilot driving a motorbike and Mr Gehlot riding his pillion.

Two suspected robbers who go by the alias 'Jai' and 'Veeru', popular protagonists of the iconic Bollywood film 'Sholay', were arrested from South Delhi for their alleged involvement in motor vehicle thefts, police said today.

On Sunday, Amitabh Bachchan shared a throwback picture with his co-star Dharmendra from the sets of his 1975 movie Sholay

Jai and Veeru's dosti has nothing on the friendship between this adorable cat and its equally cute buddy, a pooch. A video going viral on Facebook, with over 1.5 million views since June 26, shows the determined feline's prisonbreak to be with bestie - this harrowing escape from a tiny Alcatraz has the most heartwarming ending possible.

"What you saw in the film is the kind of bond Dharamji and I share even today. We meet today not just as co-actors but as Jai-Veeru," Big B said

"Dharmendra and I do not seek appointment to deliberately talk about Sholay, but we do meet on and off. And, yes, if there is any reference to Sholay, we do talk on it. Yes Hema-ji and I continue to work together and, yes, Dharam ji and I have been considered for films but they have not materialsed," Big B said

One of Indian cinema's most iconic films, Sholay, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Jaya Bachchan, Sanjeev Kumar, Amjad Khan, broke box office records and gave Bollywood some of its most loved characters - Jai, Veeru, Basanti and Gabbar Singh

This Aug 15 it will be 35 years since Sholay was released - three decades and more of Gabbar, Jai, Veeru and Basanti still striking a chord.
