The beginning of the Golden Age of Hindi Movies saw the rise of the ‘Big 3’ male stars of Hindi cinema: Dev Anand, Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor. Although they all made their debut in the mid-1940s, by the start of the 1950s they had cemented their dominance, which continued for another couple of decades. Later in the 1950s, other major stars emerged whose impact was felt more in the 1960s and beyond: Raaj Kumar, Rajendra Kumar, Shammi Kapoor and Sunil Dutt.
These incredibly talented and prolific artistes collectively produced an extraordinary collection of performances which will last through the ages. The links above (listed in alphabetical order) will take you to the collected works of these performers. Other male stars who made their debut in the latter part of the Golden Age (1961-1980) are covered in a companion section.
