As Sampooran Singh Kalra - famous as Gulzar the lyricist, director and scriptwriter - turns 73 Tuesday, his daughter Meghna says he has "unconditional love for everyone" even though he is a "silent individual and an introvert".

"One thing I love and adore in my father is his unconditional love for everyone who is associated with him. Friends, family...his adulation for all of us is so heart-warming," Meghna told IANS over phone from Mumbai about her director-poet father.
