Many stars have come and gone in Hindi cinema, but Devanand is that name which never fades from our hearts. Dharmadav Pishorimal Anand, who is also known as ‘God of Cinema’. Today, December 3, on his death anniversary, we are once again amidst memories. His style, his stories and his smile are still present in the hearts of all of us.
‘When Shammi Kapoor understood Dev Saheb’
Actress Shayra Banu had shared a very interesting story related to Dev Anand’s life. The song was being shot amidst the ruins in Baalbek, Lebanon. The atmosphere was beautiful and there was a lot of excitement in the crowd. Suddenly the foreign fans standing there started shouting ‘Shammi Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor’. He felt that his favorite star, who was always present on the screen, was standing in front of him. The actress told that if it was anyone else then perhaps he would have got worried or a little angry. But Dev Saheb shook hands with a slight smile and said, ‘Yes, I am Shammi Kapoor’. At that moment he understood how big Dev Saheb’s heart really is.

‘Always smile, always style-Devanand’s way’
Devanand never showed his problems to the world. He believed that a person should appear happy, confident and positive in front of the world. This is the reason why his presence became a feel-good moment in itself.

‘My fans can’t see me’- Devanand
In his autobiography Romancing with Life, he had written that for a minor illness he went to London and quietly got the operation done. And he did not let anyone know about it. His love for his fans was different.

One small letter and your whole life changed
Born in Gurdaspur, Devanand used to work in an office in Bombay before coming into films. There he used to type love letters of officers. The romantic lines of those letters awakened the artist within him. The thing is that one day only two words were written in a letter. ‘Stop it’, Dev Saheb took it as a signal and left his job and entered the film world.

The magic of Devanand, his stories and his style. All this is still as fresh today. On his death anniversary, his life once again reminds us that he was not just an actor. Rather, it was a legendary feeling.

Kumar Sanu, whose real name is Kedarnath Bhattacharya, is the personality whose voice gave a new definition of romance to Bollywood in the nineties. Born on 20 October 1957 in Kolkata, Sanu not only touched millions of hearts with his velvety and soulful singing, but also gave a new place to Indian music.

Got tremendous recognition from ‘Aashiqui’

Songs like ‘Dil Ka Alam’ and ‘Nazar Ke Samne’ from ‘Aashiqui’ (1990) made him an overnight star and this album is still a milestone for music lovers. There was that magic in his voice, which gave a new color to romantic, painful and enthusiastic songs. This is the reason why he was awarded titles like ‘King of Melody’ and ‘Romance King’.

Unique singing in every genre

The specialty of Kumar Sanu’s singing has been his versatility. He recorded more than 20,000 songs, which are in Hindi as well as Bengali, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and many other Indian languages. Be it the romantic style of ‘Chori Chori Jab Nazre Mili’ (Karib), the innocence of ‘Ladki Badi Anjaani Hai’ (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai), or the explosive energy of ‘Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhen’ (Baazigar), Sanu played every genre very well. This ability of his makes him the most favorite singer of the golden era of Bollywood.

His biggest record is winning the Filmfare Award for Best Male Singer for five consecutive years (1990-1994). In 2009, the Government of India honored him with Padma Shri in recognition of his contribution, which is a symbol of his dedication to art.

When 28 songs were recorded in 24 hours

Another record is registered in the name of Kumar Sanu. This immortalized the singer as a record-breaker in the world of music. This incident is related to his work, when the singer got his name written in the Guinness World Record by recording 28 songs in one day.

It was the year 1993, Kumar Sanu was at the peak of his career. He was singing songs for dozens of films at the same time. There was competition between music directors and producers to get his recording dates. Meanwhile, Kumar Sanu had to go on a long 40-day international tour. This was a matter of great concern because at that time it was mandatory for the singer to be present in the studio.

There was an uproar in the studio as soon as the news of the singer going abroad was received. There was a danger of work on many films being stopped. Every producer wanted the tracks of his film to be recorded before he left.

There was no pre-planning to make the record, it was just a coincidence. Kumar Sanu took an extra ordinary step for the producers. He decided that he would record as many songs as possible in a single day before leaving on his tour.

Name recorded in Guinness Book of World Records

The recording started in the morning and continued till late night. As soon as one track was finished, he would start working on the next music director’s song. His speed and unique ‘one-take’ performance surprised everyone. When the recording of that day was calculated, everyone was left speechless. Kumar Sanu had recorded 28 songs with different composers for different films in less than 24 hours.

This incredible achievement was immediately recognized. In the year 1993, Kumar Sanu was included in the Guinness World Records as ‘the singer who recorded the most songs in a day’. This record still stands in his name. This story is only about his singing ability. evidence No, but it shows his dedication and passion towards his work.
