Ashok Kumar: Bollywood's First Megastar | Tabassum Talkies

[@amitabhmaheshwari]

Very touching. Dadamoni was the trail blazer in natural acting. He along with Motilal and Balraj Sahni, was the best.

[@SylvesterMarshallPune]

Greatly Saddened to hear that his children deserted this gem of a human being. RIP Sir

[@nandinishah1709]

He was the first superstar of Bollywood. I wish I could have met him once, he was a brilliant actor.

[@zainsayed5363]

A very respectful personality. I always see a father figure in him. Very loving and full of goodness. RIP Sir. Thanks Tabussum aapa for sharing his last interview with us.

[@renupaul2925]

My favourite Hero of Black and White Era- Great Ashok Kumar !

[@archfab7350]

The way Late Ashok Kumar portrayed himself in the Indian Cinema was magnificent and such excellence is devoid of any sort of arrogance ,pride One of the most humble bollywood stars I have ever seen along with Tabassum mam 🙏🙏

[@misanthropicsjw3997]

Very few actors have displayed that kind of versatility and naturalism which dadamoni did in a career spanning SIX decades. Indeed one of the finest actors of India. If I'm not wrong...Dadamoni and Motilal are the pioneering natural actors of Bollywood.

Ashok Kumar Ganguly was a great holistic medicine advisor and survived many heart attacks but was always fighting fit despite his asthma. Loved all his movies esp Rakhee, Bahu Begum, Aarti and Gumraah!

Dada Muni Ashok Kumarji was from the first generation of the Indian film actors who has left an indelible imprints upon minds of thousands of his fans across the country and abroad. Once legendary Dilip Kumar in an answer to a question, 'all praise you, who do you praise ?' said 'ASHO KUMAR'.Tabassum Sahiba has aptly said that as long as this world lasts, Dada Muni's name and work will live on!

[@yaamiryaamir2471]

When one watched Ashok Kumarji's movies you don't see an actor but a loving soul that oozes talent and with his charismatic eyes and smiles he made you feel that he was a part of your life, your family and your world. He had the capacity to make that wonderful connection with everyone around him. It's heartwrenching that his own children let him down in his evening years. He had an aura about him and looked dashing, suave and sophisticated no matter what he wore. RIP Sir
