Sanjeev Kumar or Harihar Jariwala
(July 9, 1938 ā November 6, 1985) was one of the most prominent Indian actor in Bollywood movies.
Sanjeev Kumar was one of those few actor-stars to whom the role meant more than anything in the world.
He was willing to play any character of any age in a film, even if it wasn't the lead role, provided the role challenged his acting abilities which of course were considerable.
In that sense he chose to tread the path set down by other actor-stars such as Motilal and Balraj Sahni and rewrote many of the conventions of Bollywood rather than follow the conventional star system.
If one actor can shower rage from his eyes and yet at same time may deliver ice cold words from his mouth then this actorās name should be Sanjeev Kumar and he had performed above mentioned skill in the role of Thakur Baldev Singh in Sholay.
But this was not his first ever brilliant performance. Years before in 1968 he had shown this charisma in Anokhi Raat also. He was changed in the film, so easily, from a simple caretaker to a callous bandit that audience did not believe it was same man.
He had this quality to opt different body language, different dialogue delivery to perform different characters in same film. It wont be exaggeration to say that he was one of those actors who could perform all the 9 rasas on screen.
Dilip Saab did triple role in Bairag, Amitabh Bachchan did triple role in Mahan, Mehmood did triple role in Humjoli(?) but Sanjeev Kumar defeated everyone when he accepted the challenge to portray 9 different characters in a single film. He created history in this film, āNaya Din Nayee Raatā. It was his ace shot, never seen before in hindi cinema. If he did only this one film even then he was going to be included in the list of great actors India has ever produced.
He did a silent revolution in the hindi cinema because he did not opt the popular box office path to do what he wished to do.
Leave alone exceptions like Love and God, he brought class in whatever he did. We cant find any other actor who would have played lover/husband, father in law, father and again lover of same actress within a span of decade. Sanjeev Kumar did this rare act with his different roles with Actress Jaya Bhaduri/Bachchan. Dilip saab had this reservation as he did not accept the role of Birju in Mehboobās Mother India. He said,ā I cant shout ma ma to an actress who has been my actress in many filmsā. But as an actor Sanjeev Kumar knew no boundaries. He defied every conventional approach in hindi cinema and he tried or his ways were like this only that he produced contradictions. Thus its very difficult to bind him under a single definitions. He gave so much variety that he can be said a truly versatile actor hindi cinema has ever produced.
If he is in a film and Director is willing to give importance to his character then he has always brought class in to that film by his performance and examples are scattered all over. Sanghursh, Trishul, Sholay, Vidhata, Sachchai, Satyakam, Swarg Narak, Ashirvad, Khilona, Silsila etc are the films where he had produced healthy competition before his co stars and thus we the audience got beautiful films. And this list is so long. We may have a look over his filmography and will find many great films there.
If late 60s saw advent of Rajesh Khanna, the first Super star of hindi cinema then at the same time Sanjeev Kumar was adding a new chapter in the history of hindi cinema by his performances in unconvetional roles in Khilona and Koshish. He was bringing balance in the hindi films. He was not super star in the league of Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan as far as box office success is concerned but he was super class actor who never was defeated by these actors whenever they appeared together on screen. The man who can confront comfortably Dilip Kumar on screen in his 3rd 4th film only then it says much and rather all about the calibre of that actor.
Personal life and background
Sanjeev Kumar was born in Surat,Gujarat to a Gujarati traditional family living in tenement in Mumbai. A stint in film school took him to Bollywood, where he eventually became a star.
He remained bachelor all his life. He loved Actress Hema Malini and even put a marriage proposal to her but she refused, marrying Dharmendra instead. He later died in 1985.
Bollywood was not a bed of roses, and for Haribhai, it meant persistent struggle to get through. Acting was not a came-saw-conquered phase. Beginning his career with theatre, he moved ahead, slowly but surely.
After dabbling in theatre, School After dabbling in theatre, and sanjeev kumar did his first role [ made his debut ], a bit role in the film Filmalaya's Hum Hindustani (1960).
The Rajshris auditioned him for Aarti (1962) opposite Meena Kumari but he flopped in the audition and was rejected. Sanjeev's first film as a hero was the 1965 Nishan was a B-grade swashbuckler and many of his earlier films were of the same ilk opposite starlets like Kum Kum. But they were popular nevertheless and Sanjeev more than made his mark in them.
Sanjeev's first film as a hero was the 1965 Nishan was a B-grade swashbuckler and many of his earlier films were of the same ilk opposite starlets like Kum Kum. But they were popular nevertheless and Sanjeev more than made his mark in them.
He was first noticed in a big way in Sanghash (1968) where he was pitted against Dilip Kumar and more than held his own in the scenes they did together. (In fact many thought he scored over Dilip Kumar in the scenes they did together). When he had played the role of cousin of Dilip Kumar in HS Rawailās Sanghursh then his performance had declared clearly that here comes an actor who would be establishing new milestones in coming future and when Dilip Saab showered bounty of praises on him in this film then this was not just a fluke for Sanjeev Kumar because he knew he was going to establish new definitions in the history of hindi cinema.
Slowly he began getting leading roles opposite top actresses like Nutan, Waheeda Rehman and Mala Sinha..
In 1970, Khilona made him a star. But again what stood out in the film was was his outstanding acting. He was absolutely spot-on as a mentally imbalanced man who is helped back to sanity by a prostitute hired to nurse him.
The same year also saw him deliver a fine performance in Dastak, matching Rehana Sultan's National Award winning performance scene for scene and winning his first National Award as Best Actor.
In spite of being a star, Sanjeev Kumar still opted for roles that were off the beaten track in films like Anubhav (1971) though it must be mentioned here that good as he was in the film, it was Tanuja who walked off with the film.
He also consolidated his position meanwhile in the mainstream with hits - he went on to star in the hits like Seeta Aur Geeta (1972) and Manchali (1973).
Parichay (1972) and Koshish (1972), which won him a second National Award, brought him into contact with their director, Gulzar.
Thus started a mutually beneficial partnership that saw some of Sanjeev Kumar's finest work as an actor.
He played a deaf and dumb man in the latter and it is amazing to watch him emote having internalized his feelings without the help of dialogue and his performance is screen acting at its very best. The scene where he thinks his child is also deaf since he is not responding to a faulty rattle or the scene where he castigates his son for refusing to marry a handicapped girl show a supreme actor at the peak of his histionic talent.
The Gulzar - Sanjeev Kumar partnership resulted in such fine films as Aandhi (1975), Mausam (1975), Angoor (1981) and Namkeen (1982) with strong Sanjeev Kumar performances in each of them.
Sanjeev Kumar was one actor who improved his performance tremendously at the dubbing stage with his marvelous voice control.
The quiver in his emotionally saturated voice was as important an element of his acting as small casual getsures like running his hand down his neck.
He never minded dyeing his hair if the role required it and even played much older men in films like Aandhi, Mausam, Sholay (1975) and Trishul (1978).
In fact in Sholay he played Jaya Bhaduri's father-in-law. This after playing her lover in Koshish and Anamika (1973) and her father in Parichay!
And despite making his reputation as a serious actor, he showed a great flair for the light-hearted in films like Manchali, Manoranjan (1974), Pati Patni Aur Woh (1978) and Angoor.
Films like Naya Din Nayi Raat (1974) wherein he played multiple roles further showcased his acting talent and versatility.
He started working with the well-known director Gulzar in the early 1970s.
He did nine films with Gulzar, including Aandhi (1975), Mausam (1975), Angoor (1981) and Namkeen (1982). Many of his fans believe that these are some of the best films that he did.
He was always ready to take unconventional roles that challenged him as an actor.
He played Mirza, a chess-obsessed Lucknowi (citizen of Lucknow), in Satyajit Ray's classic Shatranj Ke Khiladi (1977).
In 1977 Sanjeev Kumar had an opportunity to work with the great Satyajit Ray when the latter made his first film outside Bengal, Shatranj ke Khiladi (1977).
The film features delightful performances by Saeed Jaffrrey and Sanjeev Kumar as Mir and Mirza respectively, so utterly absorbed in their game of chess that Mirza neglects his wife while Mir's wife has an affair right under his unsuspecting nose! When Lucknow falls to the British, they leave for an abandoned mosque on the outskirts of the city to play in peace! It is a delightfully nuanced performance under a great director.
Perhaps his best-remembered roles were in the blockbuster films Sholay (1975) and Trishul (1978).
During the early 1980s Sanjeev Kumar did more supporting roles than playing the lead.
Unfortunately by the 1980s, Sanjeev Kumar had grown extremely careless with his looks and had let himself bloat up.
Among his later lot of films the only two that really stand out are Vidhaata (1982), which again brought him face to face with Dilip Kumar (Again he scored over the thespian in the one major confrontation scene they had in the film) and Hero(1983), both directed by Subhash Ghai.
on Jul 09 2007 - 69th birth anniversary of amazingly versatile actor Sanjeev Kumar - many people always feel his absence in the hindi films.
Sanjeev Kumar defied traditions & conventional paths !
āSatisfaction of watching a superb actingā has been the outcome from watching Sanjeev Kumarās films.
Whenever an unbiased history of Hindi cinema will be written then film historian will be compelled to mention the coupling of Sanjeev Kumar and Gulzar.
This pair started its journey from Koshish and they gave us 6 films and except Parichay where Sanjeev Kumar had small role, rest 5 films (Koshish, Aandhi, Mausam, Angoor and Namkeen) are collectorās items.
Through Sanjeev Kumar, Gulzar could bring that rare touch in visual story telling which is possible to get only through reading the good literature.
Sanjeev Kumar was able to perform at that level at which Gulzar was able to think.
What a director needs ? Actors who can support his visions and Gulzar saab got such actor in Sanjeev Kumar.
If not Koshish, where Sanjeev Kumar plays deaf and mute character, and certain histrionics are associated with the character and we have to see the film with those associations then Aandhi, Mausam and Namkeen, three films shout aloud to make the point clear.
All three films have simple character and Sanjeev Kumarās performances not only raise the quality of these films but spoil the audience also because after watching Sanjeev Kumar in these films, one cant accept mediocre performances by other actors.
Donāt we feel elated if we imagine Ijaazat in mid 70s, with Sanjeev Kumar playing Shashi Kapoorās role and either of Shashi Kapoor/Vinod Khanna/Amitabh Bachchan playing Naseeruddin Shahās role. Ijaazat could have got different flavour and different heights then.
When many were busy in doing usual love story or lost and found drama based films, Sanjeev Kumar was busy in bringing maturity in hindi films. He did Dastak and Anubhav in 1970.
He made lead hero a matured contemporary man through these films. Inspite of commercially successful films like Manchali, Anamika and Sita aur Gita, Sanjeev Kumar did not fall for the alluring aspect of box office success by repeating his roles and thus creating an image for himself.
If any image he cared for was of an actor who was able to play different characters on screen with equal Ć©lan.
If Amitabh Bachchan was writing history through box office success in the 70s then at same time Sanjeev Kumar was creating history by brining a variety of characters on screen.
Except Dilip Kumar such actors are hard to be seen in hindi film industry who care for breaking his own image otherwise most of the actors fall for their most popular images.
Sanjeev Kumar may look careless about growth of his career but perhaps he was very sincere towards this aspect of acting career that he would not play same characters again and again. It seems he thoroughly enjoyed his acting career and thatās why his characters are so lively on screen.
He seems equal at ease while saying those revengefull dialogues in Sholay as he grins in Manoranjan when he says to Zeenat Aman,ā I need a car and not a taxiā or when he repeats his Takia kalam with apt timing in Swarg Narak, āAdjust kar lengeā or when he said in Angoor,ā Dikhne mein to main avani dikhta hun par agar ek ulte haath ka laga dun toā¦ā or when he shouts in Vidhata,ā Maliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiikā or when he, as a hunter in NDNR teases dancer character and says with wide eyes,āBhaandā and laughs heavily. Examples are plenty.
There is a tough character of Hiraman in Teesri Kasam, which Raj Kapoor had played with a class and except Dilip Kumar and Sanjeev Kumar, it seems very difficult for others to bring that rustic simplicity on their face.
Often Sanjeev Kumar could replace all the other characters in the film. In Satyakam he and Dharam ji could easily have replaced each otherās characters. In Sachchai, SK could have exchanged his role with Shammi Kapoorās role. It can be iconoclastic to say but Sanjeev Kumar could have played role of Gabbar Singh with different touches. He had shown his skill in such roles way back in Anokhi Raat in 1968 and later in Naya Din Nayi Raat also.
If he was able to portray romance with Suchitra Sen in Aandhi then he was equally at ease with Rina Roy in Ladies Tailor.
He excells in comedy as well and gave us Swaarg Narak, Yahi hai Jindagi, Ladies Tailor, Angoor, Swayamvar, Biwi O Biwi, Pati Patni aur Woh, Shriman Shrimati etc.
He did not bother about his appearances on screen.
Its said that B.R. Chopra had asked him to reduce his weight for his adult comedy film, Pati Patni aur woh, and Sanjeev Kumar always showed dilly dally attitude and said that he would do it when they would film song āThande Thande pani se nahana chahiyeā but as Sanjeev Kumar was not able to resist good food so filmās shooting was almost finished and he was same fatty.
In last he said bluntly that he would appear in the song in long underwear. Did his belly make any problem for audience? His appearance is as comical and nice in that song as it should have been with his less fat body!
When Satyajit Ray entered in to making films in Hindi he casted Sanjeev Kumar as one of the main character in Shatranj ke Khiladi.
Some 2 months ago, there was discussion on Method acting or āThe Methodā acting and how few actors like Robert De Nero, Dustin Hoffman etc belong to same school of acting. Darn such method acting, Sanjeev Kumar was able to play Don Veto Corleone, if not better than equal to Marlon Brandoās performance. He could have brought new heights in each of Neroās or Hoffmanās roles in films like Wag the Dog and Sanjeev Kumar did not take training of acting through any such āmethod acting āor āThe Methodā propagated by Strasberg or Stanislavski.
Though he said repeatedly in Swarg Narak, āAdjust kar lengeā but he did not do any adjustment in real life. Its said that he wanted to marry Hema Malini and he had proposed her which she refused because she was in love with Dharmendra. Itās also said that beautiful actress Sulakshna Pandit loved Sanjeev Kumar and she had proposed to him but he did not do any adjustment here.
What he wished he did not get and what he was getting he did not accept. His love life remained unfulfilled and was this factor able to push him to bring that character Gerulal in Namkeen?
I always become sad and disturbed whenever realise that till now I have not been able to see completely Hrishikesh Mukherjeeās less popular film āArjun Panditā where he has given one of his finest performances.
Indian actors need to recognise the work of this actor. New actors can learn just by watching his films.
His charming smile, his efforts to make his eyes still so that tears comes automatically in his eyes and he does not have to use Glycerin, His voice modulation, and his ability and flexibility to opt proper get ups, his willingness to go deep in to the psychology of the character which may require mannerisms which are not helpful in creating a popular image and his desire to explore new and different horizons in acting area will always put him in the category of great actors.
A bachelor, Sanjeev Kumar when he was only forty-seven years old, died of an acute heart ailment in 1985. It is ironic that someone who had played so many elderly roles, himself didn't even live to be fifty...
He had never married. He was involved with actress Sulakshana Pandit who wanted to marry him, but he rejected her marriage proposal, because he never got over his heartbreak after actress Hema Malini rejected his marriage proposal to marry her frequent co-star Dharmendra. Ironically for an actor who played many elderly roles, he did not live to the age of 50.
Ten of his already completed films were released after his death with his final film Professor Ki Padosan being released in 1993.
At the time of his death this film was only 75% complete and it was decided to alter the story in the second half of the film to explain the absence of Sanjeev Kumar's character. One of his other notable releases after his death was K. Asif's much delayed Love and God which was over 20 years in the making.
After director K. Asif died in 1971, production came to a halt and the film was finally released in incomplete form in 1986, one year after its actor Sanjeev Kumar had also died.
In Naya Din Nayi Raat (1974) Sanjeev Kumar reprised the nine-role epic performance by Sivaji Ganesan in Navarathiri (1964), which was also previously reprised by Akkineni Nageswara Rao in Navarathri (Telugu; 1966). This film has enhanced his status and reputation as an actor in Hindi cinema.He was the man behind the 'nau avtaars', the man who made people roll with laughter. He was Haribhai Jariwala, 'Sanjeev Kumar' Sanjeev Kumarto the movie hungry finicky audiences. 'NAYA DIN NAYI RAAT', one masterpiece given brilliance by Sanjeev Kumar. He played nine different characters in the film. He suited the roles every bit. Anybody else could have hardly done justice to the roles. The make-up, the costume, everything was so true to the characters, it was a marvel to have him perform.
Unhappy and dejected in love, in his private life, Sanjeev tried drowning his loneliness in alcohol. Coupled with his weakness for good food, it resulted in a weight problem and a heart ailment. The man who had played husband, father and grand-father ironically died a bachelor in 1985. It is ironic that someone who had played so many elderly roles, himself didn`t even live to be fifty.
Sanjeev Kumar was one of those few actor-stars to whom the role meant more than anything in the world. He was willing to play any character of any age in a film, even if it wasn't the lead role, provided the role challenged his acting abilities, which of course were considerable.
Sanjeev's on screen life was full of jubilant surprises but off-screen, he had drenched himself in alcohol. A bachelor, Sanjeev Kumar died of an acute heart ailment in 1985. It is ironic that someone who had played so many elderly roles, himself didn't even live to be fifty.
But the genius remains embedded in the hearts of the audiences forever.
