Khuda Gawah (transl. With God as Witness, also translated and released as God Is My Witness) is a 1992 Indian epic crime action film written and directed by Mukul S. Anand. The film features Amitabh Bachchan, Sridevi (in a dual role), Nagarjuna, Shilpa Shirodkar, Danny Denzongpa, and Kiran Kumar in pivotal roles. The music was composed by Laxmikant–Pyarelal. The film marked Sridevi and Bachchan's third collaboration after Inquilaab (1984) and Aakhree Raasta (1986). Set against the backdrop of Afghanistan and India, the film follows Badshah Khan, an Afghan warrior who travels to India to avenge the murder of his beloved Benazir's father. After completing his mission, he is falsely accused of another murder and subsequently imprisoned in India. Made on a budget of ₹5.7 crore, Khuda Gawah was one of the most expensive Indian films at the time, second only to Ajooba (1991), which also starred Bachchan. It was released worldwide on 7 May 1992 and received critical acclaim for its performances, direction, and music, though its runtime faced some criticism. The film was the third highest-grossing Indian film of 1992, behind Beta and Deewana. It was also the first Indian film to use surround sound, earning a place in the Limca Book of Records. The film was dubbed into Telugu and later adapted into a Pakistani television series of the same name. It remains one of the most-watched Indian films in Afghanistan. At the 38th Filmfare Awards, Khuda Gawah received nine nominations, including Best Film, Best Actor (Bachchan), Best Actress (Sridevi), and Best Supporting Actress (Shirodkar). It won four awards, including Best Director (Anand), Best Supporting Actor (Denzongpa), and Best Action.
