Hi again,
With our very own Dev saab, I was crazily in love with him believe me or not,
The only star of the Indian film Industry who I fell for flat when I was not even in my teens with his Khoya, khoya chand song I went mad.
Because then I never knew playback singers or anything all I could hear him saying and moving with the dialogue paisa babu paisa from the above mentioned movie.
Yes his first movie or last I can never remember but C.I.D.) Kala bazaar.) Hum Dono) Asli Naquli.)Maya) Love marriage and gosh I can go on and on.
Whether Dev saab’s movies were flop or hit, one thing you could be sure of his movie songs were super duper hits.
He was a good director as well gave a break to stars like Zeenat Aman. Tina Munin. Zaheera, Zaheeda Khan He has acted with the very best of old and younger generation some are ther and some are in their heavenly abode.
Jab Pyar kise se hota hai, or Hare Rama Hare Krishna or Jewel thief to a Johnny mera naam, to the best Raju Guide who else but only Dev saab gave us these movies.
Kala Paani, Warrant, Heera Panna, Man pasand, but the best were his black and white era he was the handsomest and best.
Nau do gyaarah had a Kalpana Kartik who became his lawful wedded wife even Taxi Driver they co starred together.
He starred a lot with Geeta Bali and Waheeda Rehman.
Movies like Baazi, Jaal, Guide, Mahal with Asha Parekh, Munimji, Insaniyat with himself and Dilip Saab.
But tragedy has even Dev saab’s life with two of his brother’s gone one Chetan Ji who gave us movies like Aakhri Khat, Haqueequat, Kudrat, Haanste Zakham and many more.
But the worse loss was his younger brother Vijay Anand ji gone he lost everything, this was the brother he cherished the most and was very close to.
Guide, Johnny mera naam, Main Tulsi tere aangan ki movies were directe by him a good actor himself, He acted with Jaya Bachchan in Kora Kaagaz a beautiful film.
He was in Tere mere sapne, as well as Kala Baazar.
This loss was hard to Dev saab, but his films may give him the hope to live without them when people like me love hearing all old songs of his movies to glory and carry on with life.
Jeevan ke safar mein raahi miltey hain beechad jaaney ko, aur dey jaatey hain taanhaai mein tadpaney ko.
Bye Sushama
