Raaste Kaa Patthar (1972) is a comedy-drama film directed by Mukul Dutt, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha, and Prem Chopra, with Neeta Khayani making her debut. Written by Rahi Masoom Reza and Jayant Dharmadhikari, the film featured a bold and unconventional storyline. Loosely inspired by the 1960 Hollywood classic The Apartment, its theme was later revisited in the 2007 Bollywood film Life in a... Metro, particularly in the characters portrayed by Sharman Joshi, Kay Kay Menon, and Kangana Ranaut.

रास्ते का पत्थर (1972) के निर्देशक मुकुल दत्त थे। यह एक कॉमेडी ड्रामा फ़िल्म थी जिसमें अमिताभ बच्चन, शत्रुघ्न सिन्हा, प्रेम चोपड़ा जैसे अभिनेताओं ने मुख्य भूमिकाएँ निभाई थीं। अभिनेत्री नीता ख़यानी ने इस फ़िल्म से अपनी पारी की शुरुआत की। इस फ़िल्म को हिन्दी के चर्चित कथाकार राही मासूम रज़ा और जयंत धर्माधिकारी ने लिखा था और इसका कथानक काफ़ी गैरपारम्परिक और अपने समय के लिए साहसी था। इसकी कहानी हॉलीवुड में निर्मित निर्देशक बिली वाइल्डर की क्लासिक फ़िल्म दि अपार्टमेंट (1960) से प्रेरित थी। कुछ दशक बाद में इसी कहानी को अनुराग बासु निर्देशित हिन्दी सिनेमा की चर्चित फ़िल्म लाइफ़ इन अ... मेट्रो (2007) के एक कथा प्रसंग में फिर से इस्तेमाल किया गया जिसमें शर्मन जोशी, के के मेनन और कंगना रनौत मुख्य किरदार निभा रहे थे। यह पहली ऐसी फ़िल्म थी जिसमें अमिताभ बच्चन और शत्रुघ्न सिन्हा पर्दे पर साथ नज़र आए थे। अपने शुरुआती संघर्ष के सालों में अमिताभ और शत्रुघ्न अच्छे मित्र रहे थे। बच्चन का इस फ़िल्म के कुछ दृश्यों में एक अनूठा हेयरस्टाइल दिखाई देता है जिसमें उनके बाल पूरी तरह से कानों को ढक रहे थे। बाद में यह लुक उनकी किसी और फ़िल्म में फिर कभी नहीं देखा गया। फ़िल्म की कहानी जय (अमिताभ बच्चन) के किरदार के साथ आगे...
