It is the sixth to star <a href="/wiki/Roger_Moore" title="Roger Moore">Roger Moore</a> as the <a href="/wiki/Secret_Intelligence_Service" class="mw-redirect" title="Secret Intelligence Service">MI6</a> agent <a href="/wiki/James_Bond_filmography" class="mw-redirect" title="James Bond filmography">James Bond</a>. It was directed by <a href="/wiki/John_Glen_(director)" title="John Glen (director)">John Glen</a> and the screenplay was written by <a href="/wiki/George_MacDonald_Fraser" title="George MacDonald Fraser">George MacDonald Fraser</a>, <a href="/wiki/Richard_Maibaum" title="Richard Maibaum">Richard Maibaum</a> and <a href="/wiki/Michael_G._Wilson" title="Michael G. Wilson">Michael G. Wilson</a>. </p><p>The film's title is taken from a short story in <a href="/wiki/Ian_Fleming" title="Ian Fleming">Ian Fleming</a>'s 1966 short story collection <i><a href="/wiki/Octopussy_and_The_Living_Daylights" title="Octopussy and The Living Daylights">Octopussy and The Living Daylights</a></i>, although the film's plot is mostly original. It does, however, contain a scene adapted from the Fleming short story "The Property of a Lady" (included in 1967 and later editions of <i>Octopussy and The Living Daylights</i>). The events of the short story "Octopussy" form part of the title character's background and are recounted by her in the film. </p><p>In <i>Octopussy</i>, Bond is assigned the task of following a megalomaniacal Soviet general (<a href="/wiki/Steven_Berkoff" title="Steven Berkoff">Steven Berkoff</a>) who is stealing jewellery and art objects from the Kremlin art repository. This leads Bond to a wealthy exiled Afghan prince, Kamal Khan (<a href="/wiki/Louis_Jourdan" title="Louis Jourdan">Louis Jourdan</a>), and his associate, Octopussy (<a href="/wiki/Maud_Adams" title="Maud Adams">Maud Adams</a>), and the discovery of a plot to force disarmament in Western Europe with the use of a nuclear weapon. </p><p><i>Octopussy</i> was produced by <a href="/wiki/Albert_R._Broccoli" title="Albert R. Broccoli">Albert R. Broccoli</a> and executive produced by <a href="/wiki/Michael_G._Wilson" title="Michael G. Wilson">Michael G. Wilson</a>; it was released four months before the non-<a href="/wiki/Eon_Productions" title="Eon Productions">Eon</a> Bond film <i><a href="/wiki/Never_Say_Never_Again" title="Never Say Never Again">Never Say Never Again</a></i>. The film earned $187.5 million against its $27.5 million budget and received mixed reviews.

Bond follows Khan to his palace in <a href="/wiki/India" title="India">India</a>. Bond defeats Khan in a game of <a href="/wiki/Backgammon" title="Backgammon">backgammon</a> using Khan's loaded dice. Then Bond and his MI6 contact, Vijay, escape Khan's bodyguard Gobinda in a taxi chase through a marketplace. Later, Khan's associate Magda seduces Bond. Bond allows Magda to steal the real Fabergé egg, which is fitted with Q's listening and tracking device. Gobinda knocks Bond unconscious and takes him to Khan's palace. After Bond escapes, he listens in on the bug and discovers that Khan works with Orlov, a corrupt Soviet general seeking to defy his superiors and expand Soviet domination to Western Europe. Orlov has been supplying Khan with priceless Soviet treasures stolen from the Kremlin, replacing them with counterfeits while Khan has been smuggling the genuine objects into the West via Octopussy's circus troupe. </p><p>Bond infiltrates a floating palace in <a href="/wiki/Udaipur" title="Udaipur">Udaipur</a> and meets its owner, Octopussy, a wealthy businesswoman, smuggler and Khan's associate. She also leads the Octopus cult, of which Magda is a member. Octopussy has a personal connection with Bond: her father is the late Major Dexter-Smythe, whom Bond arrested for treason. Octopussy thanks Bond for allowing the Major to commit suicide rather than face trial, and invites Bond to be her guest. Khan's assassins break into the palace to kill Bond, but Bond and Octopussy thwart them. Bond learns from Q that the assassins have killed Vijay. </p><p>Orlov is planning to meet Khan at <a href="/wiki/Karl-Marx-Stadt" class="mw-redirect" title="Karl-Marx-Stadt">Karl-Marx-Stadt</a> in <a href="/wiki/East_Germany" title="East Germany">East Germany</a>, where the circus is scheduled to perform, whilst back in Moscow, <a href="/wiki/General_Gogol" class="mw-redirect" title="General Gogol">General Gogol</a> begins to pursue Orlov when the counterfeit jewels are discovered. Travelling to East Germany, Bond infiltrates the circus and discovers that Orlov has replaced the jewels with a nuclear warhead, primed to explode during the circus performance at a <a href="/wiki/United_States_Air_Force" title="United States Air Force">United States Air Force</a> base in <a href="/wiki/West_Germany" title="West Germany">West Germany</a>. The explosion would cause Europe to seek unilateral <a href="/wiki/Nuclear_disarmament" title="Nuclear disarmament">disarmament</a> in the belief that the bomb belonged to the US and was detonated at the airbase accidentally, which would, in turn, leave the unprotected borders open to a Soviet invasion. </p><p>Bond takes Orlov's car, drives it along the railway tracks and boards the moving circus train. Orlov gives chase, but is killed by <a href="/wiki/Border_Troops_of_the_German_Democratic_Republic" title="Border Troops of the German Democratic Republic">border guards</a> after he tries to rush a checkpoint. Bond kills Mischka and Grischka to avenge the murder of 009, and after falling from the train, hitch-hikes a lift from a passing motorist to reach the airbase, eventually stealing a car from a nearby town to complete his journey. Bond penetrates the base and disguises himself as a clown to evade the West German police. He convinces Octopussy that Khan has betrayed her, and realizing that she has been tricked, she assists Bond in deactivating the warhead. </p><p>Some time later, with the plan foiled, Khan has returned to his palace and prepares to flee. Bond and Octopussy also return separately to India. Bond arrives at Khan's palace just as Octopussy and her troops launch an assault on the grounds. </p><p>Octopussy attempts to kill Khan, but is captured by Gobinda. While Octopussy's team, led by Magda, overpowers Khan's guards, Khan and Gobinda abandon the palace, taking Octopussy as a hostage. As they attempt to escape in their airplane, Bond clings to the fuselage and disables an engine and the <a href="/wiki/Elevator_(aeronautics)" title="Elevator (aeronautics)">elevator</a> panel. Struggling with Bond, Gobinda falls to his death from the plane's roof, and Bond and Octopussy jump off the plane onto a nearby cliff only seconds before the plane crashes into a mountain, killing Khan instantly. While the Minister of Defence and Gogol discuss the return of the stolen jewels to the Kremlin, Bond recuperates with Octopussy aboard her private galley in India. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Octopussy&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Roger_Moore" title="Roger Moore">Roger Moore</a> as <a href="/wiki/James_Bond_filmography" class="mw-redirect" title="James Bond filmography">James Bond</a>, <a href="/wiki/Secret_Intelligence_Service" class="mw-redirect" title="Secret Intelligence Service">MI6</a> agent 007.</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Maud_Adams" title="Maud Adams">Maud Adams</a> as <a href="/wiki/Bond_girl#Octopussy" title="Bond girl">Octopussy</a>, a jewel smuggler and wealthy businesswoman.
