To celebrate Dev Anand’s birth centenary, the Film Heritage Foundation (FHF) curated a film festival for his fans titled- Dev Anand@100 - Forever Young that brought the superstar’s iconic films back to the big screen. The two-day film festival was held on Sept 23 and 24 in 30 cities and most of the shows were sold out.Moviegoers across the country got an opportunity to watch Dev Anand’s classics like C.I.D.(1956), Jewel Thief (1967), Guide (1965) and Johny Mera Naam(1970).
These films were selected by the Film Heritage Foundation (FHF) in collaboration with the NFDC (National Film Development Corporation of India) and NFAI (National Film Archive of India) which restored these films. I&B and FHF officials say that the idea behind this festival is to reintroduce Dev Anand's films to a new generation and rekindle nostalgia for those who love his films.
