Hema Malini was the undisputed superstar of the 70s. The surprising part was that though she worked in several memorable movies with Bachchan during that decade, she never was opposite him with the exception of 1974's Kasauti which was a heroine oriented movie. After a big gap, they were opposite each other in Naseeb (1981) and then in Satte pe Satta (1982) and Andha Kanoon (1983). But perhaps the most memorable AB-Hema scene took place in 1975's Sholay where AB asks the loquacious Hema Malini with the now famous line: "Tumhara Naam Kya hai Basanti!"
