''Shaan'' (Hindi: शान) ''(Pride )'' is a 1980 Indian Hindi action-thriller film. The film was directed by Ramesh Sippy after the super success of his previous venture, ''Sholay''. The story was written by Salim-Javed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/features/2008/01/05/3442/index.html ) 〕 The film was expected to match the success of ''Sholay'' but failed to do so. The film however, ran to packed houses in its re-runs and made a lot of money. Eventually, it was declared to be the highest grosser of 1980 by IBOS. 〔http://ibosnetwork.com/asp/topgrossersbyyear.asp?year=1980〕 It did obtain the services of ''Sholays music composer, R.D. Burman, whose songs for the film provided it with a Best Music nomination at Filmfare, this being its sole nomination. ==Production== Logistical issues relating to other projects in which the cast were involved meant that ''Shaan'' took three years to make.〔 While ''Sholay'' drew its inspiration from the American Western and spaghetti western films, ''Shaan'' took its lead from the James Bond films with fancy sets and beautiful costumes. Shakaal, the bald villain played by Kulbhushan Kharbanda, was based on the James Bond villain, Blofeld. A large golden eagle is prominent in Shakaal's island lair and in the Bollywood obligatory final song-and-dance. The eagle is reminiscent of the golden lamb in Cecile DeMille's Ten Commandments; construction on the golden eagle required outside experts to be flown in and cost, in Rupees, the equivalent of the chariot scene in Ben-Hur. The film was set and partially filmed on the island of Steep Holm.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shaan (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
