Betaab (transl. Eager) is a 1983 Indian romance film written by Javed Akhtar, directed by Rahul Rawail and produced by Bikram Singh Dehal. The film stars Sunny Deol and Amrita Singh in their debut roles, along with Shammi Kapoor and Prem Chopra. The plot of the film was loosely based on William Shakespeare’s The Taming Of The Shrew. The music was composed by Rahul Dev Burman. The inauguration of Betaab happened in 1981 in the presence of Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Dharmendra and Saira Banu. Before the release of Betaab, Sunny Deol also had an uncredited small role in the 1982 film Main Intaquam Loonga, in which his father Dharmendra was the hero. Betaab was a major commercial success and went on to be one of the biggest hits of the year, emerging as the 2nd highest grossing Indian film of 1983. The film was remade in Telugu as Samrat in 1987 with Ramesh Babu and in Kannada as Karthik in 2011 with Karthik Shetty.
