Parvarish (transl. Upbringing) is a 1977 Hindi-language crime drama film directed by Manmohan Desai, starring Shammi Kapoor, with Amitabh Bachchan and Vinod Khanna as two brothers playing oneupmanship, and Neetu Singh and Shabana Azmi as their love interests. The latter four had previously starred, earlier that same year, in Desai's own Amar Akbar Anthony, the highest-grossing film of the year.

Amjad Khan and Kader Khan play the villains. The film also marked Kapoor's full entry into character roles (after his own production Manoranjan), which he would lead in for nearly the next two decades. Laxmikant Pyarelal gave the music to this film and Majrooh Sultanpuri the lyrics.

One of the biggest Diwali blockbusters of all-time,[2] Parvarish was the fourth highest-grossing film of the year at the box office, and one of Desai's four hits that year, the others being Dharam Veer, Chacha Bhatija and Amar Akbar Anthony.[3]
