Shashi Kapoor surely deserves the Dada Saheb Phalke Awards. A few of my favorite films of Shashi Kapoor are Utsav, Junoon, 36 Chowringhee lane.

One of his songs that I really like is Le jayenge Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.

About the trend that Prithviraj Kapoor, Raj Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor have received the Dada Saheeb Phalke Awards, all three of them really deserve. Prithviraj Kapoor is a legend in him self. I am no one to talk about him. The kind of theatre that he has done is fabulous. Raj Kapoor is a great showman. He is a natural actor. The kind of charm he has is out of words. He may not be pleasing by his personality, but his mental presence is just bang on. His wisdom, the way he portrays himself as an actor on screen everything was superb. He never thought about how I would look on screen like the actors these days. He just did what he liked.

I have worked with Rishi Kapoor and I really wish he too gets the Dada Saheb Phalke Award. Rishi Kapoor has worked with almost all the actresses.

I loved Shashi Kapoor's early film named Junoon. Besides this, Utsav, Do Aur Do Paanch, all his films with Nandaji, he was exceptionally amazing. He is extremely pleasant, good looking and he has his own charm and style. He has never tried to go by the style created by someone else. I have not much liked the songs of Shashi Kapoor as much as I have loved the films. His theatre was amazing but I have never got an opportunity to see it live.

It is the most difficult task if you ask me to choose between Prithiviraj Kapoor, Raj Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor. You talk about Akhbar and it is Prithviraj Kapoor's image that comes in front of the eye. Raj Kapoor has given tremendous hit movies like Mera Naam Joker et al. all of them are legend and have their own unique style. They have made their own space in Indian Cinema. Raj Kapoor has not got fame because he is Prithviraj Kapoor's son, but he made his name in the industry. Also, he is the youngest director till date. Just hats off to them.

I started watching films a little late. But I liked Shashi Kapoor in Dewar and Junoon.

One of the songs I have loved is Khelte Hain Gul Yaha. Since I have started watching movies late, I have only seen Mughal-E-Azam, Mera Naam Jokar and Sangam.

Kapoor family has started the legacy and trend of acting in the Indian cinema. Acting is in the blood and genes of the Kapoor family. I have worked with Rishi Kapoor and till the Kapoor family's latest generation Kareena Kapoor, Karishma Kapoor and my favorite Ranbir Kapoor.

Prithviraj Kapoor has made his name in theatre as well. He actually translated and adapted Shaksphere's play into Hindi. Their contribution in the Hindi Cinema is immense and they have really played a pivotal role in it.

Oh! I just love Shashi Kapoor ji. He is the only hero who is so classy, lovely, charming and good looking. I still imitate and dance on his songs Raat Baaki Baat Baki and Janu Meri Jaan. Talking about Prithviraj Kapoor, Raj Kapoor, Shashi Kapoor, all of them are legends and deserve Dada Saheb Phalke Awards.

I was not born while Prithviraj Kapoor and Raj Kapoor were into acting, but I have seen Shashi Kapoor since the time I was born. I have this sweet memory of him. I am extremely glad that he he is rewarded by the Dada Saheb Palke Award.

TellyBuzz applauds this legendary actor on his legendary achievement!
