AI Twists ‘Sholay’: Gabbar Hugs Thakur!
AI Reimagines 'Sholay': Viral Video Shows Gabbar Hugging Thakur and Jai Dancing for Veeru
The 1975 action-adventure cult classic Sholay, directed by Ramesh Sippy, starred Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Amjad Khan, Hema Malini, Sanjeev Kumar, and Jaya Bachchan in iconic roles. The story revolves around the rivalry between Thakur and Gabbar, the friendship of Jai and Veeru, and their love stories with Radha and Basanti.
But what if the story were turned upside down? A viral AI-generated video offers a quirky twist. In this clip, Gabbar is seen hugging Thakur, while Jai performs a dance for Veeru. Shared by a fan page named “Gabbar,” the 33-second video shows Thakur with his arms tied, only to be embraced by Gabbar. Basanti, instead of refraining from dancing, is seen joyfully performing.

Jai and Veeru are spotted dancing on a scooter, holding phones, while Radha (played by Jaya Bachchan) lights a lamp and smokes a cigarette. The video also humorously depicts Thakur removing his shawl to reveal his hands and Jai breaking into a dance.
The video, captioned “Please cancel AI,” has gone viral on X (formerly Twitter), garnering 1.7 million views and sparking widespread discussion.
