Mashaal (1984), an action drama directed by Yash Chopra, is remembered for the reunion of the iconic on-screen pair Dilip Kumar and Waheeda Rehman, who hadn't appeared together for years. Adapted from the Marathi play Ashroonchi Zhali Phule by Vasant Kanetkar, the film was also remade in Malayalam as Ithile Iniyum Varu with Mammootty in the lead. Prior to Mashaal, the play had been adapted into the 1969 film Aansoo Ban Gaye Phool, directed by Satyen Bose. The film featured Anil Kapoor and Rati Agnihotri in key roles, with Dilip Kumar delivering a powerful performance. Kapoor's role was initially offered to Amitabh Bachchan and then to Kamal Haasan, but both declined.

यश चोपड़ा की महत्वाकाँक्षी एक्शन ड्रामा फ़िल्म मशाल (1984) को सबसे ज़्यादा जिस बात के लिए याद किया जाता है वो है पर्दे पर दिग्गज अभिनेताओं दिलीप कुमार और वहीदा रहमान की सालों बाद बनी जोड़ी। वसंत कनिटकर के मराठी नाटक 'अश्रुंची झाली फूले' पर आधारित इस फ़िल्म को मलयालम भाषा में भी इथिले इनियम वारु शीर्षक से रीमेक किया गया और मलयालम में इसके नायक लोकप्रिय अभिनेता ममूटी थे। वैसे इस मराठी नाटक पर पहले भी एक हिन्दी फ़िल्म, सत्येन बोस के निर्देशन में 1969 में बनी फ़िल्म आँसू बन गए फूल, बन चुकी थी। फ़िल्म में युवा जोड़े की दूसरी मुख्य भूमिकाएँ अनिल कपूर और रति अग्निहोत्री ने निभाई थीं। पर मशाल को दिलीप कुमार के दमदार अभिनय के लिए सबसे ज़्यादा याद किया जाता है। फ़िल्म में जो भूमिका अनिल कपूर ने निभाई है, पहले वो अमिताभ बच्चन और फिर कमल हासन को ऑफर की गई थी, लेकिन दोनों ने मना कर दिया। फ़िल्म में दिलीप कुमार ने कानून के शासन में विश्वास रखनेवाले ऐसे नागरिक विनोद कुमार की भूमिका निभाई है, जो सामाजिक बुराइयों का पर्दाफ़ाश करने के लिए अपने अख़बार 'मशाल' का इस्तेमाल करता है। विनोद कालाबाजारी के चंगुल में फंसे नौजवान राजा (अनिल कपूर) को सुधारने के लिए उसे पत्रकारित की दुनिया में लेकर आता...
