Salim Khan is celebrated as one-half of the legendary screenwriting duo Salim-Javed. Together, they redefined Bollywood storytelling in the 1970s and 1980s with classics like Sholay (1975), Deewaar (1975), Zanjeer (1973), and Don (1978). Their iconic scripts introduced the “angry young man” persona, which became a defining archetype in Indian cinema.
After parting ways with Javed Akhtar in the mid-1980s, Salim Khan continued to contribute to Bollywood as an independent writer, penning notable works like Baghban (2003). Today, he is regarded as a pioneer of modern Bollywood and the head of a talented and influential family.
