Wiki.
Majboor (translation: Compelled) is a 1974 Indian Hindi-language thriller film directed by Ravi Tandon and written by Salim-Javed. Released in India on 6 December 1974, the film stars an ensemble cast of Amitabh Bachchan, Parveen Babi, Pran, Farida Jalal, Sulochana Latkar, Satyen Kappu, Iftekhar, Jagdish Raj and Rehman. The music was composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
The film is loosely inspired by two English films of 1970 – Zig zag and Cold Sweat. The film was later remade in Telugu by director K. Raghavendra Rao as Raja (1976) starring Shobhan Babu and Jayasudha. It was also remade in Tamil as Naan Vazhavaippen (1979) with Sivaji Ganeshan and K. R. Vijaya, in Gujarati as Naseeb No Khel (1982) and in Malayalam as Ee Kaikalil (1986). The film was also an inspiration for the 2008 film Jimmy.
