Today BollyCurry welcomes you to the birthday celebrations of two Shahenshahs! On one hand, we have the one and only Amitabh Bachchan, fondly known as Big B, and on the other is Ronit Roy, the Shahenshah of Indian television!
Born
on 11th October 1965, Ronit Roy is the eldest son of Brothindranath and
Dolly Bose Roy. Rohit Roy, also a TV and Bollywood actor, is his
younger brother. Roy initially studied hotel management before moving to
Mumbai. He stayed at Subhash Ghai's house, where he was slowly
introduced to the film industry. He is married to Neelam Singh. He has 2
daughters and a son. Roy started his career with Jaan Tere Naam (1992),
which was a commercial success. He went on to star in many hit movies
including Hulchul (1995), Army (1996), and Khatron Ke Khiladi (2001).
Roy became well known due to his role in Ekta Kapoor's Kasautii Zindagii
Kay and then went on to become a hit in fiction shows with superhit
roles in Kyunki Sas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kavyanjali, Bandini, and the
currently airing Adaalat. He also took part in Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa
(2007). Roy has come back to movies as well, winning Filmfare Best
Supporting Actor Award for his role of Bhairav Singh in Udaan (2010). He
was well-appreciated for his role in Student of the Year (2012), his
villainous role in Boss (2013), and his role as Krish's father in 2
States (2014). He has Ugly and Guddu Rangeela in the pipeline and both
