Timeline
Rajendra was born in the Punjabi-speaking Tuli family on July 12, 1929, in Sialkot, British India (now located in Pakistan).
After the turbulent years of partition, at the age of 21, Rajendra got his first break in 'Jogan' during 1950.
He attained fame in 'Mother India' during 1957, playing the son of Nargis Dutt. He went on to star in many movies, most of them successful, and earned the nickname of 'Jubilee Kumar'. He got married to Shukla, and they subsequently became parents of three children, a boy, Manoj, who would subsequently be an actor in his own rights and be re-named Kumar Gaurav, and two daughters. After offers stopped on lead roles, he turned to character roles, as well as became a producer. He was successful in launching his son's career in 'Love Story'. His son's marriage was initially arranged with Reema, the daughter of Raj Kapoor, but things did not work out, and his son went on to get married to Sunil and Nargis Dutt's daughter, Namrata, and shortly thereafter he became grandfather of Saachi and Siya. He also produced another successful movie 'Naam', the star-cast included his son, and Sanjay Dutt. He attained a PHD and had a title of 'Doctor' prefixed to his name.
He was cast in Goonj Uthi Shehnai (1959) opposite Asha Parekh, who was making her debut as a heroine. A few days later, the director fired Parekh claiming she wasn't star material and replaced her with Ameeta, who cut her fee in half to secure the role. Soon, Nasir Hussain cast Parekh in Dil Deke Dekho (1959), which made her a huge star. Kumar was cast opposite her in Gharana (1961), and this time she was successfully retained, and the film became a huge hit. He would forever refer to her as Bhagyalakshmi (meaning "the-ever-lucky-one"), since he saw her go from a flop heroine to a screen icon instantly.
