Dilip Kumar : In the Shadow of a Legend by Faisal Farooqui Om Books About the Book : The world knows Dilip Kumar, the star, the actor, the legend. But what was he like behind the facade of the star? In Dilip Kumar: In the Shadow of a Legend, Faisal Farooqui, who knew Dilip Kumar for over thirty years, gives the reader a fascinating glimpse of the man beyond the legend. Gleaned from the authors many exchanges over casual evening teas, car rides and sunset walks, or late evening silent reflections at Joggers Park, and even a pilgrimage to the Holy Mecca, the book introduces us to aspects of the star very few of us know. His voracious appetite for books, his inquisitive and curious mind, his love for literature and poetry, his role in building Joggers Park, the foodie in Dilip Kumar and his love for paani puri at Karachi Sweets. There are also hilarious anecdotes from his film shoots, like the time he couldnt run slowly enough for his first shot in cinema, or the one childhood experience that haunted him forever, the little known Qissa Khwani Bazaar Massacre of 1930. Also, the many life lessons the author picked up from his innumerable conversations with the man he calls a father figure in whom I found a guide.
