Thanks to the mask, a simpleton named Ali turns into a superhero by night in the film.

Jai's brooding intensity in Ramesh Sippy's epic nod to a Western is aided by a mouth organ which he plays in the evenings, discreetly serenading Thakur's widowed daughter-in-law (played by Jaya Bachchan)

The instrument, symbolic of loneliness and longing, made quite an impression on all Sholay fans.

With 'Rishtey mein toh hum tumhare baap lagte hain,' the Big B became the big daddy of Hindi films.
