Bollywood actor Raza Murad was asked for his opinions regarding the drawback Kumar’s death will have on the Bollywood showbiz industry to which he told 24News TV channel that Dilip Kumar has a lot of respect in our hearts due to his acting skills.

“Dilip took acting as a devotion and he wasn’t greedy for money, he used to give immense thought to his work. Money never influenced him while a good script and a good character surely did”.

“He is the master of tragedy as he used to get immensely immersed in his work by showing an emotional front like his movie Devdas. Tragic roles started having an influence on his personal life as well. He was a victim of depression so he went to a physiatrist in London.”
