Shaan (translation: Grandeur) is a 1980 Indian Hindi-language action crime film directed by Ramesh Sippy and produced by G. P. Sippy under the production banner of Sippy Films with a story written by Salim–Javed after the blockbuster success of Sholay (1975).
The film was released in India on 12 December 1980 and was a multi-starrer with Sunil Dutt, Shashi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha, Raakhee Gulzar, Parveen Babi, Bindiya Goswami, Mazhar Khan and Kulbhushan Kharbanda.[2][3]
Shaan was the most expensive Indian film made until then, and was an average performer at the box-office upon initial release,[4] but did good business during re-runs. The film follows the murder of a police officer, Shiv (Dutt), whose two conmen brothers, Vijay (Bachchan) and Ravi (Kapoor), reform and join hands with a marksman, Rakesh (Sinha), to seek revenge from the culprit that is the invincible Shakaal (Kharbanda). The character of Shakaal was inspired from the Ernst Stavro Blofeld's character from the James Bond film series.[5]
The music was composed by R. D. Burman. Burman's songs bagged a Best Music nomination at Filmfare Awards. Shaan was one of the last films to feature songs sung by Mohammed Rafi.
After diffusing a hostage situation, DCP Shiv Kumar (Sunil Dutt), an honest, brave and upright police officer, returns home to his wife, Sheetal (Raakhee Gulzar), and their young daughter, Guddi, announcing that he has been transferred to Mumbai. Shiv has two younger brothers, Vijay (Amitabh Bachchan) and Ravi (Shashi Kapoor), who reside in Mumbai. They are intelligent and capable youths, but spend their time indulging in crooked schemes and conning unsuspecting people. In one of their schemes, Vijay and Ravi convince a corrupt hotel manager (Yunus Parvez) that Vijay has stolen diamonds worth ₹2.5 lakhs and Ravi, a police officer, is searching for him. The manager makes a deal with Vijay to purchase the diamonds stolen by him for ₹10,000, when Ravi returns and threatens to arrest him for helping a criminal. The manager pays an additional ₹5,000 as bribe to Ravi, who then pretends to arrest Vijay for his crime. Later, Vijay and Ravi meet a beautiful young girl, Renu (Bindiya Goswami), who owes money to a creditor whom she refers to as Chacha (Johnny Walker). The due date is past and Chacha threatens to initiate legal actions against Renu, but she offers her Porsche car against a loan of ₹30,000 as the car is worth at least ₹1 lakh. Vijay and Ravi (who falls in love with Renu) overhear the conversation and offer to help Renu by purchasing her car for ₹30,000, but it turns out that the car was stolen and the police arrest Vijay and Ravi.
