Prakash Mehra
1939–2009
Prakash Mehra came to Bombay from Bijnor with no connections and worked up through production before directing. Zanjeer in 1973 is his and is the film that made Amitabh Bachchan; he made five more with him, including Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Laawaris and Namak Halaal.
He also produced and occasionally wrote lyrics - *Salam-E-Ishq Meri Jaan* is his. His films are less careful than Yash Chopra's and considerably more popular than most of them.
