Being a Kishoreda fan myself, the first thing I remembered was the Dharmatma song "Reshmaa....Reshmaa". Qurbanee flashed the next, and the song "Aap Jaisa Koee...", that had taken Bollywood by storm in those days. Not to forget the slow motion sequence picturisations of that movie, which was quite uncommon in those days. Firoz Khan, along with his younger brother Sanjay, belonged to an era that had mostly Kapoors and Khannas calling shots around (Hindi movie makers have had this habit of relying on surnames apart from talent, even in those days). Of course, one lanky Bachchan and a Jaat Deol too were camping around. However saddening Firoz's demise may be, I'd better recall and rejoice at the entertainment, at this juncture, that his generation has left behind for the movie goers. May almighty bless him with eternal peace!
He was a wonderful actor. In our young days we saw his film "Khotey Sikke". It was a very good film, perhaps even better than "Sholay". His "Qurbani" was a good film too. May he find peace wherever he is now!
I WAS SURPRISED WHEN I HEARD THE NEWS CAPTION ALVIDHA FEROZ KHAN.FEROZ KHAN WAS A GREAT ACTOR WITH HIS UNIQUE STYLE.INDIAN FLIM FRATERNITY HAS LOST A GREAT ACTOR HE WILL BE ALWAYS REMEMBERED FOR HIS CONTRIBUTION TO INDIAN CIENEMA.
His movies ..His life spoke of his stuff. High quality life and living life in his own terms. May God give you peace ...May you still live peacefully for the good life that you lived here.
I never had the opportunity to see Mr Firze Khan in flesh and blood.But he remained my favourite actor and will for ever occupy a place of esteem in the hearts of many like me.He had his own style and lived as also breathed his last with dignity.It is a loss to Indian and world cinema.My heartfelt condolences to his family and may his soul rest in peace.
Unlike Shahrukh's, Aamir Khans and Dilip Kumars, Mr Feroz Khan was true Indian Patriot. He called the division of Akhand Bharat and creation of 2 nation theory as biggest blunder. Also he said Indian muslms were better off than Pakistani muslms. He also critisised Pakistan support to terrorism. This left Mr Musharraf fuming who sent out directive to all Pakistani embassies to ban his entry in Pakistan and deny his visa.
He is one of very few patriotic Indian Muslms seen till date and may God give peace to his soul.

Feroze khan was a true patriotic indian but its clear from your nick "Eslam Killer" and comments like "He is one of very few patriotic Indian Muslms seen till date" that you are a Jackass.
The Hindi Film lovers will miss Feroze Khan who set a high standard with his memorable performance in film after film that he acted in. Be it Safar; Apradhi; Khote Sikke; Dharmatma; Qurbani; Jaanbaaz or Yaalgar. Feroze Khanji was always use to give his best performance and his films are part of Hindi film folklore. I saw Dharmatma; Qurbani and Jaanbaaz and I was impressed with his flawless dialogue delivery and impeccable style of acting which I can never hope to see again. May God rest his soul in eternal peace. Feroze Khan-R.I.P.
