Mumbai, March 12: one of Joy Mukherjee's leading ladies, Asha Parekh, remembers him as a fun loving person and says shooting with him was like a picnic. Saira Banu described him as a "buddy" who didn't take care of his health.
Asha and Joy did four films together - "Hum Hindustani", "Phir Wohi Dil Laya Hoon", "Ziddi" and "Love In Tokyo".
"All of them were super hits. I am happy to say it was a 'joy' working in these films. He was a hassle-free, fun-loving co-star, kind and considerate. But he also had a habit of coming late on the sets, which I soon got used to," said Asha.

We didn.t have any scenes together in Hum Hindustani, so we barely met. When we did Phir Wohi Di Laya Hoon, it was a different story.

He broke all the rules of stardom and yet was a star, a romantic hero and an all-rounder par excellence. 47 was no age for one of Hindi cinema's brightest talents to go, but on November 6, 1985, Sanjeev Kumar passed away, leaving fans, friends and the Hindi film shell-shocked. Gulzar remembers Sanjeev Kumar "For me, he was the complete actor. I have always said that I had two anchors - one was Sanjeev Kumar, and the other was R.D.Burman. What most people do not know is that I knew Haribhai (as I called him) from the late 1950s. We were both with the Indian National Theatre where I would write for the plays and he was a stage actor. Sanjeev was a student of P.D.Shenoy, who was also teaching at the Filmalaya School of Acting and later turned film director. Sanjeev was just over 20 years old, and he was playing a father!
