Cinemaazi remembers N C Sippy on his birth centenary
Beginning as an executive producer in Aas (1953), N C Sippy went on to make films with the likes of Bharat Bhooshan in Sawan (1959) and Raj Kapoor in Diwana (1967). In 1968 he and Mehmood remade the Bengali film Pasher Bari (1952) into one of the biggest successes of all time in Padosan. Padosan remains an all-time classic, with its songs still popular among most. That year also marked the beginning of his association with Hrishikesh Mukherjee with Ashirwaad (1968).
