Plot
Boxer (/ˈbɒk.sər/) is a 1984 Indian bilingual sports action film directed by Raj N. Sippy. Simultaneously shot in Bengali and Hindi-languages, the film is produced by Gautam Guha under the banner of Shri Sai Shakti. It stars Mithun Chakraborty, Rati Agnihotri, Danny Denzongpa, Tanuja and Sharat Saxena. In the film, Shankar Ghoshal (Chakraborty), son of a retired boxer, trains under a manager while serving an unjust prison sentence, in order to challenge the reigning champion Raghu Raj (Saxena). In spite of its basic storyline being inspired by John G. Avildsen's 1976 film Rocky, it also borrows partial basis from Moti Nandi's novel Shiba. Music of the film is composed by R. D. Burman. The film was a box-office success, grossing over ₹6 crore against a total budget of ₹2 crore, and also gained a cult following over the years.
