Veteran actor Tej Sapru has celebrated 39 years of his film ‘Tezaab’, describing it as a landmark that defined an era of Hindi cinema.
Taking to Instagram, the actor shared a video marking the milestone and expressed pride in being associated with the film.
“Hi friends, just wanted to inform you that Tezaab, the super-duper hit film, has completed 39 years. Great, proud to be a part of it,” he said in the video.
Alongside the clip, Sapru recalled his experience of working on the film and thanked audiences for their continued affection.
“39 years of the super-duper hit Tezaab! Looking back with immense pride on being part of a film that defined an era of Hindi cinema. From the incredible energy on set to the timeless music and your unending love—thank you for making this journey unforgettable!” he wrote.
He also invited fans to share their favourite scenes from the film.
Directed and produced by N. Chandra, ‘Tezaab’ featured Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit in the lead roles, alongside Chunky Panday, Anupam Kher and Kiran Kumar. Its music, particularly the popular song ‘Ek Do Teen’, picturised on Madhuri Dixit, remains one of its most remembered aspects.
The film proved to be a major turning point in Madhuri Dixit’s career, bringing her widespread recognition and establishing her as a leading actress. It also further strengthened Anil Kapoor’s position following the success of ‘Mr. India’ (1987).
With music composed by Laxmikant–Pyarelal, ‘Tezaab’ was released on November 11, 1988. It emerged as a major box-office success and became the highest-grossing Indian film of that year.
