Dilip Kumar was born in Pakistan to a Muslim family but all these factors could not stop him from becoming the iconic legendary actor in his long career span. Dilip kumar was an epitome of inspiration for a lot of newbie’s who want to make it big in the Bollywood industry.
Dilip kumar had developed fondness towards the tragedy genre and he had started giving huge hits like Devdas and came to be known as the tragedy king of Bollywood. This in the long run caused severe health issues like Depression for the superstar so he had started experimenting with roles like Salim from Mugl-E-Azam to dive into romance. He also tried comedy so that he could fight the mental illness.
Dilip Kumar was full of charm and gentleness in his personality even off-screen. He always prepared for his roles with utmost conviction and honesty.
Even his love story with Saira Banu is full of respect, commitment, grace and devotion. It takes a lot of hard work, courage to stay strong together for such a long time till death becomes the reason for parting ways. This kind of romance is very difficult to find these days.
I am happy for Dilip kumar jii that the tragedy king even after losing Madhubala (his first love) he could find love once again in Saira Banu jii for life.
