Short description

James Bond is sent to investigate after a fellow “00” agent is found dead with a priceless Indian Fabergé egg. Bond follows the mystery and uncovers a smuggling scandal and a Russian General who wants to provoke a new World War.

What's left behind the scenes

During James Bond's escape from Khan's palace, the famous Tarzan yell from the 1930s films starring Johnny Weissmuller can be heard.
The film features the famous Faberge Coronation Egg, which later appeared in "Ocean's Twelve" (2004).
At 19 minutes and 34 seconds, a sign with Russian lettering is shown, and one of the words contains an error – “NATIONAL STORAGE OF OBJECTS OF ART”.
James Brolin auditioned for the role of James Bond.
The first film where Q becomes an active participant in action scenes.
Faye Dunaway and Sybil Danning both auditioned for the role of Octopussy, but Mod Adams ultimately played her, having previously appeared in another James Bond film – "The Man with the Golden Gun" (1974), in which her character was killed.
The end credits of the film mention the title of the next installment in the Bond series – “From A View To A Kill.” Ultimately, this film was titled “A View to A Kill.”
