In one film, this actor did such a great job that he created a world record.

The actor we are talking about is none other than Sunil Dutt, whose son Sanjay Dutt also won a lot of accolades for his characters in the film world. At the age of 18, Sunil Dutt had to leave his home after the partition of India and Pakistan. After this, in the year 1947, Sunil worked as a Havildar in the Army for one year and after graduating from Lucknow, he came to Mumbai to study.

To meet his college expenses in Mumbai, Sunil Dutt started working night shifts at the transportation company 'B.E.S.T'. Here, he used to take care of all the buses. Due to a lack of money, he used to live in a small room in Kurla. Sunil Dutt also started doing theater during his college days, after which he started working on a radio channel and started interviewing film stars.

It so happened that when he completed his studies, as soon as he started working in films, he made such a mark that within no time he was able to establish his roots in the industry. After 'Railway Platform', Sunil Dutt appeared in many films like 'Kundan', 'Ek Hi Raasta', 'Rajdhani', and 'Kismet Ka Khel'. But, he got recognition from the 1957 film 'Mother India'.

Sunil Dutt became an overnight star by playing the character of Birju, a stubborn and obstinate boy. He surprised everyone with his character in this film. After this film, he worked in many hit films and ruled the industry for a long time.
