There have been several superstars in Indian cinema someday of the past 100 years. Bollywood’s biggest stars don’t even have 100 hits. Shah Rukh and Salman both have somewhere in 30s, whereas Amitabh Bachchan has 56 and Rajesh Khanna has 42. No longer even the biggest actors within the South, like Rajinikanth and Prabhas, have amassed greater than 100 hits over their careers. Genuinely, even once we pool the hits that these superstars have contributed, they still fall short of what this actor has contributed. Not one of the head celebs may top this one star who has acted in greater than 900 movies and has the honour of having penned 50 blockbusters and Four hundred hits.

A generation of Malayalam filmgoers saw Prem Nazir, the genre’s first star as the quintessential romantic hero. His expertise and humanity continue to be the talk of the city, as he defines the archetype of the hero.

Being from Chirayinkeezh in Thiruvananthapuram district, the actor achieved great success in Indian film. Born Abdul Khader, Prem Nazir made his feature debut within the 1952 film Marumakal. He used the stage name Prem Nazir for his 2nd film, Visappintr Vili. Films like Murappennu, Udhyogastha, Iruttinte Athmavu, Kallichellamma, Virunnukari, Nadhi, C.I.D. Nazir, Anubhavangal Paalichakal, Taxi Car, Azhakulla Saleena, Nellu, Ariyappedatha Rahasyam, and others are a ramification those for which Prem Nazir is well-known.

Prem Nazir developed a devoted fan base and assumed the persona of a romantic hero. He emerged as Malayalam cinema’s first true superstar within the early Fifties. He has two Guinness World Records – one for performing alongside Sheela in greater than 100 films, and another for having the most part in a record 524 films (501 in Malayalam and 23 in Tamil). He has appeared in over 74 B. Sasikumar films as an actor.

Prem Nazir remained a superstar until the early Eighties, despite his inability to get better after the mid-1970s. 39 of his pictures were released in 1979, setting a record. Further, he holds the record for most leading roles played, with around 700 films (and one more Eighty five heroines). Prem Nazir transitioned to supporting roles by the Eighties. Even in his fifties, he became still ready to give successes, such as Padayottam (1982). After getting measles in 1989, Prem Nazir passed away.
