RIP. He was the original anti-hero long before Amitabh and SRK. His anti-heroes did some pretty despicable stuff. They were gamblers,thieves,con-men,womanizers,smugglers,murderers,drunkards- the very dregs of the underworld in urban India. But Dev's portrayal was sauve and sophisticated and there was always a wisp of melancholy and yearning for a second chance in these cynical men.

It was brave of him to portray such characters because I read actors in that era would be advised by the cops to not portray characters that would misguide the youth. 

Went to watch GUIDE last Sunday at PVR and it was houseful with the audiences clapping and whistling at his entry. Almost all shows for his 4 re-releases across 30 cities were houseful with people of all age groups attending. In my theatre some men came dressed like him.
