Dev Anand leaves a void never perhaps to be filled again .. his never give up belief, his joy of life !

  • Rip Dev saab….. I want u all to know something,not evrytin people say are true,most of wat is written there is not 4rm their hearts… I’m not trying to judge or something but really wat is being said by most of these stars is seriously not 4rm their heart…

  • Why we say good things about a man when dies. why we do not give him respect and honor he deserves during his lifetime. What ever Industry may say I have seen in award functions Dev saheb being given seat back most rows from there he was not even visible.Is this the way to treat your senior mostactor a legend. I remember s song from Gurudutt ( Both were great friends) movie “Pyasa” sung by the great Mohd rafi saheb and written by another friend of DeV saheb Sahir “Yahan ek khilona hai Insaan ki hasti yeh Basti Hai Murda paston ki Bast” .”Yahan par toh jeevan se hai maut sasti Yeh Duniya agr mil bhi jaaye toh kya Hai “. Kya Hum log Murda Prast hai Kya Hum log Marne ke baad hi insaan ko pujte hai. Yaar Bada achha admi tha. Why Dev saheb was not given same respect when he was alive. An angry Fan
