New Delhi:
There was a time in Bollywood when actors were divided into two categories – heroes and villains. The heroes used to be competing to reach the top, but some villain used to overshadow the hero. There was one such actor who caught everyone’s attention with his powerful performance and made his own identity in the film industry. This actor impressed everyone by becoming a villain. Everyone was a fan of them. The actor we are talking about is no one else.

Secrets on the industry for 2 decades
Pran started his career in the 1950s and ruled for nearly 2 decades. According to the report of Rediff, when Pran came to Mumbai during the sharing and struggled a lot. During the Indo-Pak partition, he came to India and worked in his first film ‘Yamla Jat’ in Lahore in 1940. After this, he moved to Indore and then to Bombay.

Stayed empty for 6 months
Pran had told in an interview that after working in more than 20 films, I felt that the industry would welcome me, but I was wrong, here I had to face a lot of difficulties. I was unemployed for more than 6 months. To run the expenses of the house, I also had to sell some jewelry of my wife.

Pran had said- When riots started in Lahore in 1947, I sent my wife to Indore with our one year old child. My son’s first birthday was on 11 August 1947 and my wife told me that I should come to Indore, otherwise she will not celebrate her birthday. I reached Indore on 10 August and it was announced on All India Radio that communal massacre has started in Lahore. I could not go back, so we came to Bombay. On the eve of independence, I reached Bombay on 14 August 1947 with my family.

His first film in Mumbai was Ziddi which was released in 1948 and he appeared in films like Putli, Grihasti, Sheesh Mahal. Pran used to say- Most of my films were getting hit, so my demand was increasing. Pran has left this world now. He made a distinct identity by becoming a villain in the industry. He was a time that he used to pay more fees than heroes.
