\u201cFrom 10 to 81,all he breathed and lived was film. After losing his father at 7 and losing everything else that existed of a good life after the partition, it was a head to head combat with poverty and survival on the footpaths of Mumbai. An 8 yr old with his mother thrown head first into the ocean. It was either sink or swim. So he swam. From working in small scale tin factories to making kites, selling soap, to walking behind a Maalishwala holding his canister of oil and shouting \u2018Maalish, tel maalish\u2019. At 10 yrs of age what destiny choose for him, as the light at the end of the tunnel, was cinema,\u201d he further wrote.<\/p>\n

“The word \u2018legend\u2019 is thrown around freely these days but in his case, it is so amply justified. A father who taught me the values of life, the lessons of poverty, the importance of dedication, and the finesse of craft, with innumerable stories of positivity and inspiration. Always smiling, with words of encouragement for all, and reminding me that true success is gauged by what one \u2018is\u2019 and not what one \u2018has\u2019, and by \u2018what\u2019 one knows and not \u2018who\u2019 one knows,\u201d he said calling his father a true legend.<\/p>\n

“What a man, what a journey…To the man, I called \u2018papa\u2019 and who the world knew by his various avatars, SALAAM !!! Aapka naam Sooorma Bhopali ayysaee naee tha,” Jaaved wrote.<\/p>\n
