Fans went berserk when they saw the postings from both superstars because they are so excited about this significant partnership.
Were you aware that Big B and Rajinikanth collaborated on three movies? The megastars appeared on the same screen in the films Hum, Geraftaar, and Andhaa Kaanoon.
‘Andhaa Kaanoon’
The 1983 suspense thriller is still renowned for its unparalleled brilliance. Star performers Amitabh Bachchan and Rajinikanth both gave outstanding performances. In addition to Hema Malini, Pran, Danny Denzongpa, Amrish Puri, and Reena Roy, it was directed by Rama Rao Tatinaini. Even though the movie was released forty years ago, movie buffs still remember it.
‘Geraftaar’
“Geraftaar,” which starred three Indian film legends: Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Rajinikanth, was a hearty masala comedy. Along with Poonam Dhillon, Kader Khan, Ranjeet, and Shakti Kapoor, it was released in 1985.
‘Hum’
‘Hum’, directed by Mukul S. Anand, was released in 1991. With Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan in the key parts, it was a huge hit and won praise from audiences and critics in addition to doing well at the box office. Audiences were enthralled with them and went crazy when they appeared on film. Important parts were portrayed by Govinda, Danny Denzongpa, Kimi Katkar, Deepa Sahi, Shilpa Shirodkar, and Anupam Kher.
The much awaited ‘Thalaivar 170’ is expected to release in 2024, and fans are hoping to see Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan recreate the same magic on film. In the meanwhile, the forthcoming movie’s Mumbai schedule has concluded.
