  • '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. Pre-'Sholay' and post-'Sholay', that's what we are. It is truly a text book film (sic)," Karan said during the trailer launch of his latest romantic comedy "Shaandaar" here.
 
Karan also revealed that he has seen the Ramesh Sippy directorial, which will complete 40 glorious years on August 15, a "100 times".
