A must-read for Dev Anand fans and students of film history"A broken nose sometimes makes a great boxer," said the evergreen Bollywood star Dev Anand after his movie Ishq Ishq Ishq did not work at the box office. In his sixty-five years of unchallenged dominance as the most-loved Hindi film star, Dev Anand gave us several memorable hits like Guide, Taxi Driver, Hum Dono, Johny Mera Naam, and Hare Rama Hare Krishna.He was not only an exceptionally handsome and stylish hero. His 'man of the future' philosophy is worth emulating by persons of all generations. He neither celebrated his successes nor lamented over his failures. A Karma Yogi, in the true sense of the term, he produced, directed, and acted in a lead role in a movie at the age of eighty-eight, which is without parallel in the history of Bollywood.The book attempts to analyse why his philosophy of life is a source of inspiration for all. It also gives a detailed filmography from Hum Ek Hain to Charge Sheet, with a separate chapter on Guide, and a special write-up on his genius brother Vijay Anand.… (mer)

This is an amazing novel about the detailed success story of Mr. Dev Anand.

It’s inspiring to the core. It gives you the zeal to work hard and to achieve your goals.

I would like to thank @ for allowing me the opportunity to read such a wonderful Biography of such an amazing, hardworking and enthusiastic actor.

This is definitely a must read for the fans of the actor. And the people who love to read biography, those who like a tinge of inspiration in their lives.

It is also a good read for the teenagers.

I rate it 4.5 out of 5 stars. ( )

There's no "story" in the book. The text is presented in a drab narration of events and occurrences, already well documented elsewhere.

The writing suffers from poor grammar and weird composition of sentences, but thankfully better than the first book by Mr. Sharma.

However, I liked the chapter on 'Guide', which was written in a story like format.

There were many instances, where I felt that the author could have dived deeper into the life of this evergreen superstar, his feelings, his struggles and how Dev Sahab lived his life, but as a reader, I was left unsatisfied.

Disclaimer: I won this book as part of the member review program, but as always my review is independent of that. I must, however, add that in spite of giving a low rating to the first book by Mr. Sharma, he chose to give his second book to me for review. Kudos to him for appreciating an honest review. ( )

It was such a delight to read this book. I hardly knew Dev Anand as a person or his movies, but reading this book gave me so much insight and perspective into his life as an amazing actor, director, producer and in general, an amazing human being. There is so much to take away from his life ; his determination, his passion for his work, his take on life. Feeling so inspired after reading it. A few chapters in the book felt life-like and less immersive, but it was overall a great book and a must read for Dev Anand fans and fans of film history. ( )
