Mr. Dutt was one of the great actors and personalities of Hindi cinema. As a fan my favorite role was as the boatman in "Milan".

He will be greatly missed.

There is a really nice biography on Sunil Dutt at glamsham.com

"Sunil Dutt, who rose to starry heights in Bollywood before becoming a hero in real life, was reduced to living on the footpath when the partition of India stripped his family of their home in Pakistan.

But in the many hardships he faced in his 76 years of life, Dutt - popularly known as Dutt Sahib - never lost his sensitivity, his deep attachment to human values and his abiding commitment to secularism.

For millions Dutt was the ultimate hero Bollywood ever produced, the man who always kept a smile on his face and who always faced triumphs and setbacks with equal resolve.
"

Full Story: http://www.glamsham.com/movies/scoops/05/may/25star.asp

Check it out. Plus all the "old" images of Sunil Dutt have been ripped from my Bollywood website's, Sunil Dutt profile and gallery pages, which I feel honored about.
