Hero in 720 films, Paired with 85 heroines, this actor beat Rajesh Khanna, Amitabh Bachchan in..., name was... When we discuss about India's most successful actors, names like Rajesh Khanna, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Dilip Kumar come to our mind. These stars have acted in some of the biggest films and delivered many blockbusters that any actor can dream of. However, there is one man, who has given more hits, than all of them combined. This actor gave more hits than Rajesh Khanna, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan He is none other than Malayalam screen idol Prem Nazir, who ruled Malayalam cinema for three decades. The veteran star, whose career spanned from 1951-89, worked as a leading star in 720 films throughout his career, appearing in over 30 films twice a year. Industry insiders and trade analysts estimated that Nazir delivered at least 700 hits as a lead hero, out of which 50 were blockbusters. In comparison to other star figures, Amitabh Bachchan, undoubtedly Indian cinema's biggest name, has less than 60 hits as lead actor. South superstar Rajinikanth, has a record of over 80 hits and more than a dozen blockbusters. The three Khans who trail way behind, with Salman Khan on top (39 hits and 15 blockbusters), Shah Rukh Khan (34 hits and 10 blockbusters), and Aamir Khan (20 hits and 6 blockbusters). Who was Prem Nazir? Born Abdul Khader in Travancore in 1929, Prem Nazir began his acting journey with film Marumakal in 1952. It was then he garnered success after his second film Visappinte Vili. He became a heartthrob and carved a special place in audiences hearts with his acting. In 1950, he moved to films with hard-hitting subjects, transforming him into a superstar. Eventually, he was nicknamed as Nithyaharitha Nayakan (Evergreen Hero) by fans and media. In late 90s, he started doing more supporting roles and played second leads in films like Jayan, Sukumaran, Shankar, and Soman. However, the upcoming stars like Mammootty and Mohanlal overtook his position, appealing fresh wave of audiences with their talent. In 1989, Prem Nazir was infected with measles and passed away at 59. His last on-screen appearance was in Priyadarshan's film Kadathanadan Ambadi.

Amitabh Bachchan Announces Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 In Iconic Agneepath Style
The announcement video came after there was a widespread rumour surrounding Big B's departure from the show. Amitabh Bachchan is gearing up to make a comeback with a new season of the widely popular quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati. Sony has confirmed that Big B is returning once again to challenge the contestants in season 17. The announcement came with a unique promo where Amitabh Bachchan was seen drawing inspiration from one of his legendary characters. The announcement video started with a wealthy and arrogant man berating a salesman who allegedly damaged his carpet, which was imported from London. As the man kept accusing the salesman, he decided to drop some facts. He then proceeded to explain that the carpet's fibre and anti-dust properties proved that there was no actual damage done to the carpet. Before leaving, the salesman handed the so-called wealthy man a bit of cash and suggested he use it for his throat after all that yelling. The scene then shifted to Amitabh Bachchan as he stepped into the frame and delivered the punchline and said, 'Jahan akal hai, wahan akad hai," which translates to 'Where there is wisdom, there is confidence." Towards the end of the clip, Big B was seen announcing the premiere date in the style of Vijay Deenanath Chauhan, one of his legendary characters from Agneepath, and said, '11 August se appointment hai apna, kya bolta hai? Appointment. English bolta hai." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sony Entertainment Television (@sonytvofficial) The announcement video came after there was a widespread rumour surrounding Big B's departure from the show. Previously, a report by Bollywood Hungama suggested that Bachchan might be stepping down from the position of host due to personal reasons and Salman Khan would be considered as a potential replacement. The publication quoted a source who stated, 'Salman Khan is the king of the small screen, and the best face to replace Amitabh Bachchan is his, as he also has a strong connection with the audience in the smaller centres. Earlier, Shah Rukh Khan had hosted KBC, and if everything goes well, Salman will be the newest to take the television sets by storm." However, Bachchan was quick to put these rumours to rest as he shared behind-the-scenes snapshots from the sets of Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 17, reaffirming his commitment to the show. With this new announcement and promo launch, there is no more doubt that Amitabh Bachchan will be donning the hat of a host in the brand-new season of KBC.
