Mohra (transl. Pawn) is a 1994 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film co-written, edited and directed by Rajiv Rai and produced by his father Gulshan Rai. It stars Naseeruddin Shah, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty, Raveena Tandon, Poonam Jhawer, Raza Murad, Paresh Rawal, Gulshan Grover, and Sadashiv Amrapurkar. The film was also the first collaboration among the trio of Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty and Paresh Rawal, who went on to collaborate several times later on. Following the success of Rajiv Rai's previous film Vishwatma, Divya Bharti was cast as the female lead. Due to her death very early during the production, Raveena Tandon was cast as her replacement. The film was reported to be inspired by the 1987 film Death Wish 4: The Crackdown while the climax was inspired by the 1992 Hong Kong film, Hard Boiled. The film was remade in Bengali, in Bangladesh, as Gupto Ghatak (1998). The film was a box office success, and went on to become the second highest-grossing Indian film of that year, behind Hum Aapke Hain Koun. It received nine Filmfare Award nominations in 1995 at the 40th Filmfare Awards including Best Film, Best Director, and Best Music Director. Songs of the film also became huge chartbusters in that year. The film's soundtrack album sold more than 8 million units, making it the second highest-selling Bollywood soundtrack album of 1994.
