Indian - Actor
Born: May 30, 1955

I have only seen movies of my generation - 'Mother India,' 'Shree 420,' 'Awaara.' Those days, we had actors such as Dilip Kumar, Ashok Kumar.

Milkha Singh

I have always admired Mr. Naseeruddin Shah, Mr. Anupam Kher, the late Om Puri ji, and Amitabh Bachchan.

Vikrant Massey

Many people say that theatre has no money, but it has been the stepping stone for the best film actors of our times like Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Paresh Rawal, etc.

Javed Ali

There are many brilliant actors, including our own Dilip Kumar, but Robert de Niro is something else.

Anupam Kher

Artists like Mehmood, Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan are performers... they are born in centuries.

Johnny Lever

We are a jingoistic nation - whether it is politics or films or whatever. We can posthumously shower praises and accolades on people, but when they are alive, we don't bother about them. A classic case is Om Puri.

Kay Kay Menon

It would be impossible to find an actor to portray Om Puri, so I wouldn't even attempt it.

Naseeruddin Shah

I started getting modelling assignments and that's how I became interested in acting. But my father, who last watched Dilip Kumar's ' Devdas,' wanted me to do MBA. I didn't listen to him and gave my audition for Yash Raj films' 'Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge' and got selected for it.

Saqib Saleem

I idolised Dilip Kumar, I've seen all his movies, 30-40 times each.

Jeetendra

I know and live with the real Dilip Kumar. He is a simple man, hard working, who has survived time.

Dilip Kumar

I had a rosy picture of marriage till I was exposed to the huge responsibility of being Dilip Kumar's wife.

Saira Banu

Like Dilip Kumar, I've never run after money but only after good roles and that's why have always rebelled against those directors who wanted me to do buffoonery in the name of comedy.

Asrani

Dilip Kumar was the only Bollywood hero who could make a girl shiver just by looking at her. If you don't believe it, ask your mom!

Imtiaz Ali

I do not believe in superstars. For me the only superstar has been Dilip Kumar and he will always be. I don't consider anybody after him as a superstar.
