Pls drop in oftener!<br /><br />Anantha: Fantastic. Only shows that that Tej Sapru is the only foil to Rajnikanth this country could produce!<br /><br />Aqua: The person you are referring to is Sapru, Tej and Priti's dad.

I guess Sudhir can also be part of your list. I felt bad for them, they were known and recognisable, but no body gave them any bhaav! I remember almost all the persons you mention including Taj Sapru and his dad and his sister as well - maybe you need to be a small timer to understand and sympathasize with other small timers, those who missed the bus! I wonder if they do feel that way?Sunil Deepakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05781674474022699458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10102622.post-12766845879767679612006-12-05T00:19:00.000+05:302006-12-05T00:19:00.000+05:30oh i reber tej sapru all right...mostly in judge w...oh i reber tej sapru all right...mostly in judge wala roles. trivia abt him - his daughter's name is preeti sapru and she used to act in hindi films as well...mostly the hero's sister roles.<br /><br />i think iftikar had more roles as "doctor uncle". my abiding memory of iftikar is him in a white coat saying "ab isse davaon ki nahin, duaaon ki zaroorat hai".<br /><br />i used to really like this actor called naseer hussain (not the director). he had such nice kind eyes. he used to play the 'dad' wala roles. and would balraj sahni come in this category?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10102622.post-68533521658975749482006-12-04T22:03:00.000+05:302006-12-04T22:03:00.000+05:30Aaah Tej Sapru! Incidentally, I saw Bloodstone jus...Aaah Tej Sapru! Incidentally, I saw Bloodstone just a couple of days ago. I am sure no one apart from hardcore Rajinikanth fans will remember it. But in 1987, Rajinikant did his first and only mainstream Hollywood movie (if you can take the liberty to call it that) directed by Dwight Little, whose resume includes gems such as the Wesley Snipes flick, Murder at 1600 and the second of the Anacondas. Anyways, it was set in India and among the smattering of Indian side characters were Tej Sapru and Bob Christo. Both of them played the henchmen of the Brit art smuggler, wearing pathan type salwars minus the head gear. Tej Sapru even wears oversized Aviators and his introduction scene is as cheesy as it can get.<br />Sapru walks to the foyer of the smuggler's lair / bunglaow and see's a bevy of swimsuit clad white and brown babes and ogles at them! The smuggler dude tiptoes to Sapru and actually puts a knife at his throat and mouths some inane line about how he (Sapru) makes his life interesting or something. He leaves Sapru with a bloody scratch and orders him to clean up the blood (cos he hates it) before meeting him elsewhere! Typical 80's kistch! And to top it all, it had my man Rajinikant at his best as the taxi driver Shyam who finds the blood red diamond called Bloodstone in the trunk of his taxi! Priceless movie!ananthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01130501107980414641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10102622.post-18140527744666787702006-12-04T14:59:00.000+05:302006-12-04T14:59:00.000+05:30Sir, we have been fans of your blog for a month no...Sir, we have been fans of your blog for a month now, just thought I would drop in to say hello and thank you!Diligent Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14161986450733741915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10102622.post-50396431322159570312006-12-04T10:10:00.000+05:302006-12-04T10:10:00.000+05:30Dipta: I actually recall Satyen Kapu and Huma Khan...Dipta: I actually recall Satyen Kapu and Huma Khan.. i am sorry to say, Tej Sapru still doesn't ring a bell. <br /><br />And I have finally figured out your modus operandi.... you insult bloggers so that they come to your blog to insult you and so you get traffic... hmm....the mad mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535453643548976883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10102622.post-43243956886702068272006-12-04T01:45:00.000+05:302006-12-04T01:45:00.000+05:30You blogged what's often been on my mind!
