Dilip Kumar, aka Yusuf Khan aka Shehzada Salim, left us today. His death is certainly a great loss for Hindi cinema to which the legendary actor contributed immensely. He immortalised characters in films like Devdas, Kranti, Naya Daur and Jwar Bhata to name a few with his unmatched style. And though his films might be from the black and white era and his fans might not be the hip and happening Gen Z, there are a few songs that transcend generations and will continue to keep Dilip Sahab alive in our hearts.
