Black & White is a 2008 Indian crime thriller film co-produced and directed by Subhash Ghai. The film stars Anil Kapoor, Anurag Sinha, Shefali Shah, and Aditi Sharma. The film explores the life of an Afghan suicide bomber, played by Anurag Sinha, who is sent on a mission on Indian Independence Day. It was said to be based on the 2005 American movie The War Within but Ghai himself says that the inspiration was instead another Hollywood movie, released earlier in 1997, The Devil's Own. Upon release, the film received wide critical acclaim along with a nomination for Best Debut (Male) for Anurag Sinha at the 54th Filmfare Awards. The film premiered at the International Film Festivals of Pune and Delhi.
