Producer-director J Om Prakash, the Maternal Grandfather of Hrithik Roshan, Passed Away on August 7, 2019. Devesh Sharma Profiles the Life and Career of the Veteran
Most of his film titles started with the letter A. He began his innings as a producer with Aas Ka Panchi (1961) and never looked back. But life was never easy for J Om Prakash. Like a million others, the Partition disrupted his life in Lahore. He came to Mumbai with empty hands but with a pocketful of dreams. He found work with filmmaker Mohan Segal and struck a friendship with Rajendra Kumar. This proved fortuitous. The actor, who was an established star then, agreed to star in his production, Aas Ka Panchi, under his banner Filmyug. The film proved to be a silver jubilee hit.
Besides Rajendra Kumar, he had cordial relations with most top actors like Rajesh Khanna, Dharmendra, Jeetendra and Sanjeev Kumar as well. It’s believed he never drafted formal agreements with any star rather worked with them purely on trust. It’s to his credit that no one ever betrayed that.
