Actor-director Dheeraj Kumar passes away
Dheeraj Kumar , who started out as a hero in Hindi cinema, found stardom in Punjabi films before becoming a hugely successful actor-director-producer of television shows such as 'Kahan Gaye Woh Log' (1985) and 'Om Namah Shivay' (1997), passed away in a Mumbai hospital on Tuesday. He was 80. "He was admitted to the hospital on Saturday as he had fever, cold and cough," Ajay Shukla, a close associate and family friend, told PTI. The actor, an alumni of FTII, Pune, was a finalist in the Filmfare United Producers talent contest. "Three people emerged from that contest. Rajesh Khanna went on to become a superstar. Subhash Ghai became a super-director. The third was Purushottam, me," he said in a recent podcast with 'Shresth Bharat'.

The film flopped but Dheeraj was noticed as the duty-bound cop, the youngest of three brothers—Manoj Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan being the other two—in the blockbuster Roti, Kapda Aur Makaan (1974). He was, however, more appreciated as the neatly-dressed romantic bhadralok who lip-synched the unforgettable 'Ka karoon sajni aaye na balam' in Yesudas' voice in Basu Chatterji's 'Swami' (1977). Dheeraj found the elusive stardom in Punjabi films with 'Daaj' (1976). "The film did as much business as 'Amar Akbar Anthony' (1977) in Punjab," he said in the podcast. He managed to rope in Sanjeev Kumar for the title role of 'Fauji Chacha' (1979) to conjure another box-office smash. He became a top hero before returning to Mumbai on benefactor Manoj Kumar's cajoling. In 1984, when Doordarshan went commercial with its first soap opera, 'Hum Log', Dheeraj followed his elder brother's advice and became an early entrant. Television turned out to be his true calling. Dheeraj set up his own production company, Creative Eye, and got Ganga Prasad Mathur, the writer of Vividh Bharati's iconic radio programme Hawa Mahal, to pen a series on forgotten martyrs, "Kahan Gaye Woh Log'. This was a time when film actors scoffed at the small screen. But director Dheeraj also convinced a reluctant Hema Malini to act in the serial courtroom drama 'Adalat' (1993). He made 'Apradh' (1994-95) for Zee TV, a crime show. Dheeraj directed a series of mythologicals, starting with 'Om Namah Shivay' (1997) which ran for 208 episodes. 'Shree Ganesh' (2000) enjoyed a longer stint: 397 episodes.

Jr NTR has a full-length role in War 2, confirms Naga Vamsi: 'Tarak anna enters after 15 minutes, dances with Hrithik Roshan and stays till the end'
Ever since Jr NTR was announced as part of YRF 's expanding spy universe through the highly anticipated action film War 2, fan speculation has been non-stop. Questions around his screen time and the significance of his role began trending shortly after the teaser dropped, with many fans fearing that his appearance might be limited to a glorified cameo. Now, producer Naga Vamsi has set the record straight. In an interview with Gulte Pro, Vamsi quashed rumours of Jr NTR 's limited presence in the film. 'NTR being there for 30-40 minutes is not true,' he clarified. 'Both of them will be there throughout the film. After the first 15 minutes, Tarak anna will enter, and both of them will dance to a song. It is a commercially packed film.' Rs 80 crore bet on 'War 2' Vamsi's Sitara Entertainments has reportedly acquired the Telugu distribution rights for War 2 for a whopping Rs 80 crore. Speaking about the high-stakes deal, he said, 'I bought it because all these commercial elements will be there. How everything will come together, even I will watch it with the audience in the morning show. Based on my faith in NTR's judgement, I bought the film.' Known for his close association with Jr NTR, Vamsi is also producing the actor's upcoming mythological project with Trivikram Srinivas, believed to be based on Lord Karthikeya. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giá vàng đang tăng mạnh trong năm 2025 — Các nhà giao dịch thông minh đã tham gia IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR to Avoid Joint Promotions for War 2 'War 2' wraps shoot, targets Independence Day 2025 release Meanwhile, the shooting of War 2 has officially wrapped.
