“An era has come to an end. Dev Anand leaves a void never perhaps to be filled again. He never gave up belief, his joy of life,” tweeted actor Amitabh Bachchan.

Manmohan Singh, India’s prime minister, said in a statement that his country had lost “one of its most endearing heroes.”

Anand reportedly wanted to be remembered in life, not death, and asked his family to perform his last rites privately. More than anything else, he wanted to die with his boots on—and so he did!
