A Year in Hindi Movies 1944
1944 - Dilip Kumar!!!
The following is based on the book,"Star-Portrait". Born at
Peshawar on December 11, 1922, he was brought to Deolali at age
6. His father Ghulam Sarwar Khan was a successful fruit trader
and had 12 children, of which the child at number 3 was named
Yusuf Khan. As a school kid, he liked to play football and chess.
In 1936, he came to Bombay and went to the Anjuman-e-Islam High
School near VT Station. He was very good in sports but mediocre
in studies. A friend of his used to get the exam questions by
some mysterious method, and shared these with him. Both of them
passed many exams this way. Yusufbhai does not know even now how
his friend managed to get the questions!

This is from a PhD dissertation in Hindi, submitted to a university from Jhansi in 1989.
Nest set of heroines:
Vaasaksajjaa
Piyaa aiso jiyaa mein samaay gayo re,
main to tan-man ki sudh-budh ganvaa baithi.
Har aahat par samajhi vo aaye re,
jhat ghunghat mein mukhdaa chhupaa baithi.
Parkiyaa
Ek daa teen, aajaa mausam hai rangeen.
Raat ke chhip chhip ke milnaa duniyaa samjhe,
Lakshitaa
Jaadugar sainyaa chhodo mori banhiyaan,
ho gayi aadhee raat, ab ghar jaane do.
Pheeka-pheeka kajraa, tootaa huaa gajraa,
kah degaa saari baat.
Now You Know!
