  • 'Sholay' Defines Hindi Film Industry, Says Karan Johar
Filmmaker Karan Johar is a huge fan of the iconic film "Sholay" and says it defines the Hindi film industry.
 
"Whenever I speak about 'Sholay', internationally also, I say we should not term it Bollywood, it should be called 'Sholay'...It defines us as a film fraternity.

Karan also revealed that he has seen the Ramesh Sippy directorial, which will complete 40 glorious years on August 15, a "100 times".
