Biography
Joginder (real name Joginder Shelly) was an Indian actor, director, producer, writer, singer, songwriter and distributor. Two Hindi films produced, directed, written, acted and distributed by him were "Super Hits" β Bindiya Aur Bandook and Ranga Khush. (In Indian cinema any film which runs for over 50 weeks continuously is classified as a "Super Hit.")
He successfully instituted a plagiarism suit against the producers of one of India's greatest films, Sholay, for substantially copying his work. The character Ranga Khush was a household name in India in the 1970s, especially among little children who copied his maniacal laugh and rolling eyeballs, and favourably compares with Gabbar Singh who copied him.The film Ranga Khush was a spinoff from Joginder's two-word dialogue in Bindiya aur Bandook (known internationally as "The girl with the gun"). He died from kidney and liver problems on June 15, 2009 in Mumbai at age 59.
