Haathi Mere Saathi is a 1971 Indian Hindi-language drama film, directed by M. A. Thirumugam, with screenplay written by Salim–Javed and dialogues by Inder Raj Anand. The movie has a Disneyesque appeal with an Indian twist. It stars Rajesh Khanna and Tanuja in the lead. The film at that point in time was the biggest hit ever made by a South Indian producer in Hindi.
