Long-Term Partnership

The Prem Chopra & Birbal partnership

After 14 years apart, they came back together for Buddha Mar Gaya (2007). They didn't share a set between 1993 and 2007. Their work runs across 3 decades of Hindi cinema.

The work is uneven: Aanchal (6.8) at one end, Haqeeqat (2.8) at the other. From Aanchal (1980) to Buddha Mar Gaya (2007).

The shape of the work

The 1980s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 1980s belonged to Aanchal; the 2000s to Buddha Mar Gaya. Prem Chopra acted in every film; Birbal acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
