    Darasingh, one of my favourite actors, and who needs prayer from his fans. Dear editor, it may please be noted that,Darasingh also known as Rustom-e-hind, entered the film industry in the year 1962 with Devi sharma's film KING KONG, whereas it is mentioned in your column as entered the filmworld in 1952 with film SANGDIL, which is wrong.
