'Even when he was sick, Shammi was very positive'

One of Bollywood's best villians, Prem Chopra worked with the late Shammi Kapoor in quite a few films like Laat Saheb, Teesri Manzil and Pagla Kahin Kaa.
He pays a tribute to the legend here:
I have worked with Shammi Kapoor in many films. I would meet him very regularly. In fact, I met him in hospital recently.
We
had lunch together about two months back. He was very tired then because he had been sick for quite a while. But even when he was sick, he was a free-spirited man with a very positive attitude.
Unhe maloom tha ke jaana toh sab ko ek din hai toh kyun na zindagi jee bhar ke jiye (
He knew everybody had to die one day so why not live life the way you want to).
He lived his life beautifully.
As told to Patcy N
