Prime Video celebrated the legendary screenwriting duo Salim-Javed with a special roundtable conversation hosted by celebrated choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan.
The iconic duo, who revolutionized Hindi cinema with their trailblazing scripts, joined their children—Salman Khan, Zoya Akhtar, and Farhan Akhtar, all executive producers of the docuseries ‘Angry Young Men’.
