Wiki.
Kaala Patthar (transl. Black Stone) is a 1979 Indian Hindi-language action drama produced and directed by Yash Chopra, with a screenplay written by Salim–Javed. The film was based on the Chasnala mining disaster, and is the fourth collaboration between Shashi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, and director Yash Chopra, which succeeded the films Deewaar (1975), Kabhie Kabhie (1976) and Trishul (1978).
Despite doing average business at the box office, the film was critically acclaimed, and received several Filmfare Award nominations. Over time, it has attained cult status, and is considered a classic in Hindi cinema. Amitabh Bachchan was much appreciated for his portrayal of an ex-Navy captain turned coal mine worker.
