Salim-Javed, the legendary screenwriters who revolutionised Indian cinema in the 1970s with films such as Zanjeer<\/i>, Sholay<\/i> and Deewar<\/i>, will reunite to pen a new feature project, Javed Akhtar, one-half of the duo, announced on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The industry stalwart made the announcement during the trailer launch of the upcoming Prime Video docuseries Angry Young Men<\/i>, which explores the formidable creative partnership and legacy of Salim Khan and Akhtar.<\/p>\n

“Now, let me tell you that we are going to write. I’ve spoken to him (Salim Khan) ‘Bas ek aur picture hum likhenge saath mein<\/i>‘ (We will write just one more film together).<\/p>\n

In the earlier days, we used to charge a premium price for our work. It will be even higher in today’s time, so please see to it,” Akhtar told reporters here. Salim-Javed are credited for reinventing the Bollywood blockbuster format through their films, playing to the gallery but also chronicling the angst of their times. The duo were also noted for being the first Indian screenwriters to achieve star status.<\/p>\n

After collaborating on 22 Hindi films and two Kannada movies, the duo decided to end their partnership in 1982. The title of the docuseries, Angry Young Men<\/i>, refers to the angry young man hero-type they created in the ’70s, which became a cinematic representation of the era and also gave birth to Amitabh Bachchan\u2019s stardom.<\/p>\n
