P KAILASH

A long time back in the year of 1925 a little boy was born to proud parents in a small town called Multai in Nagpur. The village was originally called as Multapi as it was in close proximity of the Tapi river but the name was soon shortened to Multai. There were huge celebrations to welcome the little baby boy with amazing features and a handsome face. His father Hazarilal Sharma and mother Motibai were very proud of him. It was the time of the British Raj and an English couple approached Motibai wanting to adopt the little boy. The offer was firmly refused. Very soon the little boy started growing up with his family that consisted of two elder brothers and four sisters. The boy was smart academically and after completing his secondary school exams became a teacher in a very small school in Baitul a small village near Multai. His life was steady but routine. One day he along with three of his friends decided to visit the city of Mumbai (Bombay in those days) They were all young and enthusiastic and were charmed by the magical city. As they roamed around the city as tourists they were spotted by a Hindi movie director. He had been watching them and was fascinated by the way one particular young man made perfect smoke circles with his cigarette. The rest became history as he signed movie after movie and became a successful actor. This young man was Kailash Chandra Sharma and his on-screen name was P Kailash. He worked with various directors and producers during his lifetime that included Tolaram Jalani (owner of Filmistan Studious in those days) House of Nadiadwala (the legacy is still being carried by his sons and grandsons) and the Ramsay brothers. He worked with various actors and actresses like Prithviraj Kapoor, Hiralal, Rajan Aksar, Amita, Nalini Jaywant, Nadira, Jayshree Gadkar, Vaijayanti Mala. He was married to Gangadevi Pandey and had three children eldest daughter Nirmala, second daughter Manu and a son named Roop. He was an immensely devotional person and read the Sunderkand from Ramayana every night after returning from his shoot. It didn’t matter if the clock showed the small hours of the night. Although he acted in a negative role in many movies he had a sensitive soul and had tears in his eyes whenever he read the Ramayana. He was extremely generous to his neighbours and his village folks and people waited for his arrival. His overly trusting nature and blind faith often led him to deception but he was a firm believer in humanity and goodwill. The people who knew him still recollect his hospitality and warm nature.
