#GoldenFrames: Prem Nath - One of the most handsome actors of Bollywood

Prem Nath was born on November 21, 1926, in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. His family moved to Jabalpur after partition. He dreamt of becoming an actor since childhood and used to write letters to his uncle Prithviraj Kapoor. Nath's father was an inspector and hence he was sent to the army. However, one day, Nath wrote a letter to his father asking for Rs 100 to buy a gun and with that money he came to Mumbai to become an actor. He was one of the early members of Prithviraj Kapoor's Prithvi Theatres. He debuted with the movie 'Ajit' (1948), and a series of hits followed, including ‘Barsaat’ (1949), ‘Naujawan’ (1951) and ‘Aan’ (1952). According to Rishi Kapoor in a documentary, in 'Barsaat', Nath honed his acting style and got his tough-man image in 'Aan'. For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
