In 1981, actor Kumar Gaurav became an instant star with his debut film Love Story. Kumar Gaurav was son of famous actor Rajinder Kumar aka Jubilee Kumar for his hit films. 1981 also marked the year when actor Sanjay Dutt became an instant star with debut film Rocky. Hes a son of legendary actor Sunil Dutt. Both of these actors' films failed miserably at the box office after their debut films. In 1984, Kumar Gaurav married Sanjay Dutt’s sister and both became brother in-laws. In this episode of Bollywood Talks, I’m going to discuss a specific film NAAM that was made for Kumar Gaurav to resurrect his career by his father Rajinder Kumar. Sanjay Dutt also acted in this film. But Sanjay is the one who benefitted from this film, and not Kumar Gaurav. Thank you once again for joining me in Bollywood Talks. You can also check out my other episodes as well.
