00:00Today, the Indian film industry has discovered a treasure
00:11which has brought pride to the freedom fighters of India,
00:21all the patriots of India who have always worshipped the Israelites,
00:31in the world and in the country,
00:35they have shown the pride which is the pride of India.
00:41Such a writer, such an actor, such a director,
00:49who speaks of patriotism,
00:52a noble person who has always created a place in the hearts of people with love.
01:02I remember, I went to take blessings from him
01:07when I was starting Shaheed Udham Singh.
01:12When I told him that I was starting this film,
01:17at that time he was in Delhi,
01:19he had come to his flat in Delhi, in Sagar Apartments.
01:24When I found out, I told him that I am making Shaheed Udham Singh,
01:30I will need you.
01:32He blessed me.
01:35While leaving, I said that I just want to say that you have inspired.
01:42And the way Bhagat Singh is recognized by your face today,
01:49is recognized by your character,
01:51if our generation and the coming generations remember the face of Bhagat Singh,
01:57then it is the face of Manoj Kumar.
02:00He said, Raj, you will do very well.
02:05I got this blessing from him,
02:08and he was really an inspiring person.
02:12The film was completed,
02:14he asked me how much it was made.
02:17And I said, God,
02:20and his blessing is that I showed him that film when it was a rough cut.
02:24After watching the film, he gave me a lot of blessings.
02:30He met my entire team, the director, everyone.
02:34There were some small things that he told me,
02:38we cut them,
02:40incorporated some things,
02:42it was only in the dialogues.
02:44A personality,
02:46his blessing has always been there,
02:49and I have always received his blessing in my social life.
02:55Today, the film industry, India,
02:59India has lost a precious diamond.
03:04I pay my respects to them with great respect.
03:08There is no doubt that Manoj Kumar ji,
03:13the pride of India, the name of India,
03:18if after Raja Bharat, it is brought back in popularity,
03:24then it is Pandit Manoj Kumar.
03:27And really, the work he has done,
03:30the work he has done,
03:32the place he has made in the film industry,
03:36and in the whole world,
03:39the identity he has made with cinema,
