On the birth anniversary of legendary actor Raaj Kumar, veteran star Raj Babbar paid a heartfelt tribute, reminiscing about his remarkable voice, iconic dialogues, and unforgettable screen presence
Raj Babbar and Raaj Kumar have worked together in the film “Muqaddar Ka Faisla.”
Raaj Kumar, whose illustrious career spanned over four decades, featured in nearly 70 films and earned recognition as one of Indian cinema’s most celebrated and successful actors. Before stepping into films, he served as a police officer. Kumar started his acting journey with films like “Rangeeli,” “Anmol Sahar,” “Aabshar,” and “Ghamand,” though these early projects did not bring him much recognition.
