Kader Khan
As a dialogue writer, Khan was discovered by Manmohan Desai, who commissioned him to write the screenplay of Roti (1974), one amongst several dialogue writers.
Kader Khan’s career trajectory can be charted in his association with three actors – Amitabh Bachchan, Jeetendra and Govinda. Khan’s dialogue writing skills and the Bachchan’s easy delivery synthesised to make him a superstar, a fact rarely appreciated. Khan wrote 22 films for Bachchan, from Benaam (1974) to Agneepath (1990)).
