The list of movies with the word Sholay in it

This may not interest you, but I am for sure about to die laughing when I read these names. The data is taken from imdb.com.

Just with the name sholay there are five movies.

1. Sholay (1975) - original
2. Sholay (1984)
3. Shole (1953) aka "Sholay"
4. RGV Ki Aag (2007) aka "Sholay" - India (Hindi title) (working title)
5. Sholay (1977)

Now comes the real fun.

1. Aag Ke Sholay (1988)
2. Do Sholay (1977)
3. Duplicate Sholay (2002)
4. Inteqam Ke Sholay (1995)
5. Ramgarh Ke Sholay (1991)
6. Sholay Aur Toofan (1994)
7. Aag Aur Sholay (1980)
8. Hong Kong Key Sholay (1985)
9. Intiqam Ke Sholay (1976)
10. Khooni Sholay (1992)
11. Phool Aur Sholay (1976)
12. Sholay-E-Sholay (1990)

Of course most of them are from Pakistan like "Hong Kong Ke Sholay".

I will like to end this with the plot of the one of these named "Duplicate Sholay" (2002) directed by none other than Kanti Shah (director of Gunda, Loha). Here it is :-

When Thakur Baldev Singh gets blinded by notorious bandit Gabbar Singh, he seeks the assistance of two former convicts, Jay and Veeru, to bring Gabbar before him so that he can mete out justice in his own way. This was the plot of the original 1975 classic, in this one too Baldev does seek the assistance of Veeru and Jay, but they come together with three other friends, namely Balli, Tara Singh, and Mithun (look-alikes of Sanjay Dutt, Sunny Deol, and Mithun Chakraborty respectively). Also seeking vengeance for her rape is Lajwanti, alias Daku Chutiya, who was raped by Gabbar. Lajwanti is none other than Basanti's sister, who dances in Chandni Bar. Gabbar is assisted by various bandits, including the Singh brothers: Jangal, Mangal, and Dangal, all escaped convicts. The Duplicates are also assisted by Shahenshah, and an Anil Kapoor look-alike. Watch the fun and frolic unfold as the Duplicates team up to fight the invincible Gabbar Singh.

If anyone of you get your hands on this one, please let me know. I will loose anything to watch this one.
