Jagdeep Career

He started his career in the year 1951 in the film Afsana which also marked the filmmaker’s debut of director BR Chopra’s. He kept picking big and small roles but did an equally tremendous job in all the characters he was taken into. In the early stage of his career, he impressed directors like Bimal Roy, who then cast him into a significant role in his movie Do Bhiga Zamin as Lalu Ustad, the shoe shiner in 1953.

He started his journey to becoming a comic actor through Shammi Kapoor’s, Brahmachari in 1968. He made in his name in the industry through his expressions and smile that slowly become mandatory in the movies, and the audience enjoyed his performance on screens thoroughly. But his most Iconic role is remembered even today and is evergreen in the minds of the audience as Soorma Bhoopali in the Blockbuster Sholay in 1975.

Many Bollywood actors have taken it up to social media to show their condolences to the family and share their experience of watching the actor perform. Ajay Devgn tweeted on twitter that he always enjoyed watching Jagdeep on screen. Devgn also wrote, “My deepest condolences to Jaaved and all members of the family. Prayers for Jagdeep Saab’s soul.”

Actor Manoj Bajpayee also said, Thank you for all the memories that I have of watching your films, you will be missed by us all, condolences to the family. Johny Lever left a heartfelt note for him saying, and I faced the camera for the first time in my first film with him in the movie Ye rishte na Toote. Will miss you legend, condolences to the family and may his soul rest in peace.

Bollywood loses another Gem in the year 2020, and we wish that his soul rests in peace, and our wishes stay with the family, may they remain strong in this time.
