Romancing with life biography
Romancing with Life is the latest addition to my collection of biographies, and autobiographies to be specific. I have always loved Dev Anand for all the melodious songs that have been screened on him. Having grown in the Doordarshan era, have grown on all those black-and-white numbers, which still keep resonating in the ears. So, when this biography came last year, it was definitely on my list of ‘to be read’ books.
Romancing with Life by Dev Anand
The book Romancing with Life moves in an absolute chronological order. Except at the beginning where Dev Anand remembers his life before he moves to Bombay while on a train from Gurdaspur to Bombay. He briefly talks about his family. And what he felt when he left them to pursue his dreams. Throughout the book, Dev Anand comes across as a constant dreamer. Who lives in his dreams and then wakes up to make those dreams come true. Both in his life and his films. His life is all about films and the woman who walked with him on his journe Romancing with life dev anand.
