KAPIL DEV ABOUT PRAN

If I had a son, I would have named him Pran: Kapil Dev

    Legend actor Pran was a sports lover and cricketer Kapil Dev got a glimpse of it way back in 1980, when he had to undergo a knee surgery. 
     Kapil says, “I had to go to England for the operation and in those days, the cricket board didn’t have as much money. Suddenly, I got a call from Pran sahab, who told me he would bear the entire expenditure. He said, ‘Don’t worry about anything. Just don’t compromise on your health.’ I was so touched by that call. Of course, eventually, the board and my family together managed it all. But, it was sonice of Pran sahab to offer to help... And I had met him just once before that. My respect for him increased manifold. He was a great human being, apart from being a legend in his field.” Kapil adds, “Over the years, I have been one of his silent admirers. If I had a son, I would have named him Pran.”

•     His first role was as Sita to Madan Puri’s Ram in a local Ramlila in Shimla in 1938. 

•     He wanted to become a photographer and even assisted one in Shimla. A chance meeting with

             a producer got him his first film, Yamla Jat in Punjabi in 1942. 

•     When he came to Mumbai after Partition, he didn’t get any work. Writer Saadat Hasan Manto 

               recommended the actor for Ziddi (1961), starring Dev Anand and Kamini Kaushal. 

•     From 1969 to 1982, the only actor to be paid more than Pran was Rajesh Khanna. And 

             reportedly, he was paid thrice the fee Amitabh Bachchan got for Don. 

•     He was best friends with Ashok Kumar and of the 27 films they did together, 20 were hits. He

             was also said to be great friends with Shammi Kapoor, Shashi Kapoor, Dilip Kumar, Manoj                   Kumar and Kishore Kumar. 

•     According to him, one of his biggest losses during Partition was his dog. Later, he got three 

              dogs, and he named them Bullet, Whisky and Soda.
