of positive attributes and remarkable popular career across three generations. With an

until last movie at 88, he acted in 114 films, working alongside 88 heroines, 23
associate heroines, 26 supporting actresses, and 1300 associates and 53 directors. His
exceptional musical sense gave us 860 popular songs. He remained disciplined and
dedicated as a directors hero, so natural and spontaneous in front of the camera,
whether in acting, song, or dialogue delivery.

writers, musicians and cameramen, fulfilling the loyalty, commitment and promises.

accommodated many producers financial constraints keeping cordial relationships.

and deep desire to share vision with the world drove him to direct and produce films
with innovative and newer subjects. Known for his daring and gutsy experiments,
producing "Guide" on a bold topic, such as shooting at 13,000 feet and featuring an
English girl speaking Hindi, launching newcomers, all while not prioritizing commercial
success. His sorrow was short-lived, and he had the ability to quickly stand up after
failures or setbacks. He considered remakes as a drain on creativity.

and free from ego, answering his own telephone calls, driving simple old car himself,
remembering journalists by names, generous giving interviews. He considered himself
as the best, while remained kind and a cultured individual maintaining dignified
relationships with national & international social and political leaders at ease, never

adherence to the principles of karma as outlined in Bhagavad Gita made him a true
karma yogi. He is cherished by generations to come, will remain eternal forever, we
