Social media has evolved over the years and Sholay has made its significance on it by being relevant to date.

Spoofs and memes on it still make us laugh out loud and another creativity is making the internet amazed. In this world of AI, one Instagram user has created a deep fake video of ‘What if Sholay was made in Hollywood?’ and we cannot keep calm.

Where Robert De Niro is reimagined as Amitabh Bachchan’s Jai and Al Pacino plays Dharmendra’s Veeru. Actress Julia Roberts is imagined as Hema Malini’s Basanti and actor Kevin Spacey would have played Thakur Baldev Singh. The video was originally shared on Instagram and soon made its way to Reddit.

Several users took to the comment section and dropped their thoughts on this unique imagination:-

“Sholay is already copied from multiple Hollywood Western movies. The main plot is based on Seven samurai. Some powerful scenes are shot-by-shot copy from Once Upon a Time in West.”

“Excellent, a Kevin Spacey without hands can’t grope anyone, so killed two birds with one stone there! “

Reddit

“This is so spot on characterisation & casting Epic ?? Wish it had audio.”

“After "Me Too", How about Kavin Spacey as Gabbar? “

"Sholay was loosely inspired by the Spaghetti Westerns by Sergio Leone, mainly from For a Few Dollars More and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. The main villain character Indio from FAFDM is almost similar to Gabbar; there is a laughing scene as well."??

Reddit

Unknown to many, Dharmendra recommended Amitabh for Sholay. The former revealed the same with Aaj Tak and said, “Amitabh says NOW that I recommended him. If he is saying that from where he is now, from such a dizzying height, people will talk about his greatness. He never said earlier that I had recommended him. So now when he says it, people will say he is great, not I.”
