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. ()

About Kaala Patthar

Branded a coward for abandoning his ship full of 300 passengers, Captain Vijay Pal Singh takes up work in a distant coal mine, poorly equipped, with no sufficient medical supplies or proper facilities. When the miners and their families face a catastrophe, as water has forced its way into one of the mining tunnels, endangering 400 lives, will Vijay be able to rise to the occasion or will he 'abandon ship' again?
