Rajesh Khanna used to hit THIS actress, touched her nose, people thought they were..., her name is...
Rajesh Khanna used to hit THIS actress, touched her nose, people thought they were..., her name is... There are numerous stories in Bollywood where reel relationships spark off-screen rumours. One such speculation that garnered traction in 90s involved Bollywood's evergreen on-screen pair, Rajesh Khanna and Mumtaz. In a recent candid chat, Mumtaz opened up about her unique bond with Rajesh Khanna, and why people assumed that they were more than just co-stars. While talking to Radio Nasha, Mumtaz recalled her first meetup with superstar Rajesh Khanna, 'I didn't know him that time. I met him first time when I got to know that there is a hero Rajesh Khanna with whom I had to work. I said first ask him if he wants to work with me. That's how I got my first picture with him, Do Raaste. He has been very kind to me, we were very good friends.' She said. Mumtaz further talked about sharing a playful bond with him, which made people believe that they were in a relationship. The actress shared, 'When you do 15 films with a hero, then you develop a timing with each other. Kaka sirf mere saath hi aisa karta the (He used to do these things only with me). Sometimes he used to put something on my face, hit on my hips or touch his nose to mine during a song. So people thought, 'Dekh dekh chakkar chal raha hai, dekho kitne nazdeek hai. Jaisa Kaka ke saath Mumtaz chipakti hai naa vaisa kisiko bhi nahi chipakti. Kuch chakkar hai (There is something going on between them. The way she gets close with Kaka, she doesn't do it with any other hero).' All our films were hit, that's why they used to say 'they are having an affair'.' Since Rajesh Khanna and Mumtaz shared a close bond, she was asked whether he was ever possessive about her. She stated that it's quite natural for any man to be possessive about their favourite woman. For the unversed, Rajesh Khanna and Mumtaz collaborated in many memorable films including Do Raaste, Bandhan, Sachaa Jhutha, Dushmun, Aap Ki Kasam, and Roti. In 1970s, they were considered one of Bollywood's most loved on-screen pairs, and their wonderful chemistry evidently gave many box office hits.

This Dilip Kumar heroine whom Jeetendra refused to work with, he asked the director to cast someone else, the actress then..., her name is...
This Dilip Kumar heroine whom Jeetendra refused to work with, he asked the director to cast someone else, the actress then..., her name is... Mumtaz began her acting career at a very young age. Initially, she worked as a background dancer and then acted in supporting roles for few years. After she bagged her first lead role in Faulad (1963), the actress catapulted to fame and starred in several hit films including Khilona, Loafer, Aap Ki Kasam and more. The veteran actress recently shared an anecdote about her early career during an interview. Mumtaz revealed that she was cast as the lead actress opposite Jeetendra in the 1967 film Boond Jo Ban Gayee Moti. However, Jeetendra wasn't happy with director V Shantaram's decision to cast her the film. While speaking to Radio Nasha Offical, the actress recalled how Shantaram went against Jeetendra's decision, and asked him to leave the film if he doesn't want to work with her. Mumtaz recalled, 'He said, 'Why are you taking Mumtaz?' Shantaram said, 'I think she has got all the qualities of becoming a heroine. She is beautiful, she dances well, she is a good actress and I like her'. Jeetu was like 'No, no. Can't we cast someone else?' Shantaram told him, 'She will be the heroine. If you don't want to do it, then you can leave the film.' Mumtaz revealed that initially Shantaram's daughter Rajshree was hired to do the film, but she quit the project as she was planning to get married. However, ignoring all his objections, Shantaram went ahead and cast Mumtaz as the lead actress. While looking into the camera, Mumtaz apologised to Jeetendra for exposing this, 'I am sorry Jeetu that I am saying that, but that's what's true.' She said. In the same conversation, Mumtaz appreciated Dilip Kumar and Mehmood for guiding her in the early days of her career. She shared that no superstar was ready to work with her back then but Dilip Kumar trusted her and cast her in Ram Aur Sham. She said, 'Dilip Kumar looked at the reel and said, 'She is beautiful and she dances well. I will do the film with her.' I'm very thankful to him. When he agreed to do the film with me that's why I could become an actor. If he would have said 'no', I couldn't have become an actor.' Mumtaz added, 'When he agreed to do the film with me, nobody else refused. Everybody worked with me after that.'
