Wafadaar is a 1985 Indian Hindi film directed by Dasari Narayana Rao. The film stars Rajinikanth, Padmini Kolhapure, Vijayta Pandit for the first time in a love triangle well supported by Kader Khan, Shakti Kapoor, Anupam Kher, Asrani, Paintal and others.[1] It was a box office hit. The film's storyline, centered on a loyal protagonist manipulated into a deceptive romance for a greedy employer's gain, was inspired by the Telugu film Eenaati Bandham Eenaatido (1977), directed by K.S.R. Das. Both films, penned by writer Mannava Balayya, share thematic similarities, blending loyalty, betrayal, and romance, showcasing Balayya's knack for emotionally charged narratives adapted across Indian cinema industries.
