Fondly called Bihari Babu and Shotgun, Sinha is known for his distinctive voice that helped him carve a niche for himself in Bollywood after making his debut in 1969 with “Saajan”. Some of his popular Hindi films include “Kalicharan”, “Vishwanath”, “Blackmail”, “Dostana”, “Shaan” and Kala Patthar. In his over four-decade long career, he has acted in over 200 Hindi films, apart from some Bengali and Punjabi movies. IANS
