Sunil-Dutt - Actor, social activist and politician. Sunil Dutt wore many hats and excelled in a plethora of roles that came his way - both on and off screen.Born on June 6th, 1929, Sunil Dutt grew up as Balraj Dutt in a family that had survived the Partition of India. A student of Mumbais Jai Hind college, he first started off as radio show host and celebrity interviewer, which led to his first encounter with the glamor world.Interestingly, wife-to-be Nargis was one of the celebrities he met in the course of his work. Soon, Dutt got a chance to enter the film-world, when director Ramesh Saigal offered him the heros role in his Nalini Jaywant starrer Railway Platform (1955).Ek Hi Raasta (1956), marked the start of a seven-film long association with B R Chopra. Dutts true breakthrough came with Mehboob Khans magnum opus Mother India (1957).His portrayal of Birju, Nargis rebellious younger son, portrayed a raw, urgent energy. Dutts association with Nargis in the movie resulted in a more serious one, when he married her after the release of the film.Dutts role in women-oriented films like Sadhna (1958), Sujata (1959) and Main Chup Rahungi (1962) were well-appreciated. Noted filmmakers like Bimal Roy, Hrishikesh Mukherji and B R Chopra dared to defy Sunil Dutts established rebellious Birju image and cast him as a sensitive lover.Dutt turned producer in the early sixties with a couple of offbeat movies - Yeh Raaste Hain Pyar Ke (1963), where heroine Leela Naidu has an adulterous relationship and Mujhe Jeene Do (1963) where he played a dacoit.In his cinematic association with B R Chopra, Dutt gave three big hits in the sixties - Gumraah (1963), Waqt (1965) and Humraaz (1967). He also worked with South Indian filmmakers, which resulted in emotion-heavy, rural-based hits with Nutan like Khandaan and Milan.In 1967, he had a hat-trick of hits with Milan, Meherban and Humraaz. His role of a buffoon in Mehmoods Padosan (1968) was much appreciated.In 1981, Dutts world was rocked when his wife Nargis died after a protracted battle with her cancer. He later joined politics and social work.But the actor in Dutt continued to surface during the last decade with movies with select filmmakers like J P Dutta Kshatriya and Yash Chopra Parampara. His last screen cameo was in Rajkumar Hiranis immensely popular laugh riot Munnabhai MBBS, where he played on-screen father to his son Sanjay..
