Star is a 1982 Indian Bollywood movie, directed by Vinod Pande, starring Kumar Gaurav, Rati Agnihotri, Raj Kiran, Saeed Jaffrey, A.K. Hangal, Dina Pathak and Padmini Kolhapure.

It had a very successful soundtrack released as Star/Boom Boom, produced by Biddu and sung by Nazia Hassan and Zoheb Hassan. Despite popular soundtracks, the movie flopped at the box office.[1]

Nazia and Zoheb were offered the chance to act in this movie by Biddu, but they refused to act and chose singing.

Plot

[edit]

Dev Kumar Verma comes from a middle-class family and must find employment to support his parents. Dev, however, has set his mind upon becoming a music sensation like Elvis Presley.

He loses his job because of this and refuses to work until he gets a job to his liking, much to his parents' dismay and his brother, Shiv Kumar Verma. Dev gets employment at Charlie's Disco, where he meets Maya and falls in love with her.

When Charlie's Disco's competitor, Rana, finds out about Dev, he wants to hire Dev, but Dev decides to continue to work with Charlie's Disco. Consequently, Dev and Charlie get beaten up by Rana's men, and Dev cannot sing.

After recuperating, Dev is devastated to find out that Maya and Shiv are in love with each other.
