Palay Khan is a 1986IndianHindi-language film directed byAshim Samanta and produced byShakti Samanta under his own production Shakti Films. The film starsJackie Shroff asPalay Khan, withPoonam Dhillon,Farah in other pivotal roles.[1][2] The music was composed byR. D. Burman. Palay Khan was a favourite script lying with Shakti Samanta from mid 70s and he announced the movie withRajesh Khanna but he could make the movie in the mid 80s only.
The British government have taken over their rule in a deserted region in India, but some of the people there strive for freedom. One of these brave freedom fighters isPalay Khan, who owes his intelligence to the entire region. When British soldiers attack, he is always present to defend, and now he and his gang are wanted by the British, no stone is left unturned to catch him, but all ways prove futile until one day, a British officer by the name of Gulbaaz Khan manages to abduct one of Palay Khan loyal associates, Amar Singh and held him captive until Palay Khan surrenders. But in retaliation, Palay and his gang kidnap Helen, the daughter of British General Bonz, but eventually, Palay and Helen fall in love. This love might as well bring about the change in hatred for love between the British government and the freedom fighters.
The music was given byR. D. Burman whileAnand Bakshi wrote the lyrics for the film. The soundtrack was released bySaregama.[3]

In Palay Khan (1986), Jackie Shroff portrays a definitely romanticised version of the real Pashtun rebel leader Palay Khan Khosti, who in the 1930s carried out an armed struggle in the area of Zhob, Baluchistan (back then Fort Sandeman). The exotic costumes and setting are far from accurate, but they certainly satisfy the sofa wanderlust of the public
