Dilip Kumar… the name is enough to take you one a nostalgic trip down Indian Cinema’s most glorious years. He was the romance icon, the tragedy king and the charmer that had men and women swooning over his looks for decades. He was a brilliant actor and started the era of superstardom.
He held the record of winning the most number of Filmfare Awards for Best Actor, later tying with Shah Rukh Khan at the number eight. He’s inspired a generation of actors and right from Amitabh Bachchan to the newcomers of today’s generation. They all look up to him for his craft and the characters he played.
We, at Filmfare got an opportunity to be in the presence of him and two other celebrated superstars of the film fraternity. Joining Dilip Kumar for a celebratory cover marking the 100 years of Hindi cinema, Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan posed for the cover of Filmfare, eight years ago.
