Friends, we've been waiting for this day for years: the day where we'd finally watch the original Don! And boy, did we have a blast. How could you not? There's intrigue, melodrama, revenge galore, and way more tight-rope walking than we expected. Not to mention Amitabh Bachchan in one of his most iconic roles! The film also stars Zeenat Aman and Iftekhar. It was directed by Chandra Barot and, of course, written by Salim-Javed. Like what you're hearing?
