Shaan (translation: Grandeur) is a 1980 Indian Hindi-language action crime film directed by Ramesh Sippy and produced by G. P. Sippy under the production banner of Sippy Films with a story written by Salim–Javed after the blockbuster success of Sholay (1975). The film was released in India on 12 December 1980 and was a multi-starrer with Sunil Dutt, Shashi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha, Raakhee Gulzar, Parveen Babi, Bindiya Goswami, Johnny Walker and Kulbhushan Kharbanda. Shaan was the most expensive Indian film made until then, and was an average performer at the box-office upon initial release, but did good business during re-runs. The film follows the murder of a police officer, Shiv (Dutt), whose two conmen brothers, Vijay (Bachchan) and Ravi (Kapoor), reform and join hands with a marksman, Rakesh (Sinha), to seek revenge from the culprit that is the invincible Shakaal (Kharbanda). The character of Shakaal was inspired from the Ernst Stavro Blofeld's character from the James Bond film series. The music was composed by R. D. Burman. Burman's songs received a Best Music nomination at Filmfare Awards. Shaan was one of the last films to feature songs sung by Mohammed Rafi.
