Work in more than 500 films, yet the day spent in the house without electricity, son becomes Bollywood’s top villain
Raza Murad
In the past, many actors have faced financial crisis. In the 90s, there have been many actors who have worked with big stars. Many of these film stars were also those who did not have money to live in old age. This often happens because they are unable to save enough money to prepare themselves financially in difficult times. Today we are telling you about the same actor who worked in more than 500 films. He has shared screen space with superstars like Amitabh Bachchan and Rajesh Khanna. However, he became pauper in old age.
Star father’s son spent childhood in poverty
The Mughal-e-Azam actor recently spoke openly about the financial crisis in an interview to film discussion. Actor Raza Murad spoke about the importance of saving money by giving the example of his father, veteran actor Murad. His father was a supporting actor who acted in some superhit films like ‘Do Bigha Zameen’, ‘Mughal-e-Azam’, ‘Andaz’, even appeared in a Hollywood film ‘Tarzan Goj to India’. Raza Murad told that his family faced financial crisis despite being a famous actor. He said, ‘I have faced poverty. There was no electricity in our house in Bhopal. I had to read under the lamp post for my exams. I used to start studying at midnight and finished at 6 in the morning. Raza told that even though his father acted in many films, he could not escape financial crisis. He further said, ‘Many people did not save. There were many heroes of the 50s and 60s, which were in great demand at the peak of their career, but they faced a lot of difficulties in old age. They should have planned for the future. You should also think about the future of your family. If you have children, it is your responsibility to take care of them. My father must have worked in more than 500 films. But, we never had a car and we lived in a rented house. ‘
Why actor struggling with financial crisis
Raza Murad also revealed that many old stars did not have money in the end. He said that many old actors were responsible for their financial failures as they did not make a better plan for the future. He said, ‘When you earn money, you should think about your old age. Crew members also have their homes in our industry. They have savings. They know that income can be closed on any day, they know that their health may deteriorate. Why beg you in front of someone? I do not want to take any name, but there were many actors who were extremely busy in their golden days. He earned a lot of money and fame, but he spent everything. When he grew up, he was forced to live in a rented house, even though he lived in luxurious bungalows. I have seen him traveling with an auto rickshaw. ‘
