One of the most productive performers in Indian film history is Dev Anand. The iconic actor, often referred to as “Forever Young,” had a broad appeal. He had a talent for captivating audiences with his captivating presentations. The late, iconic actor celebrated his 100th birthday on September 26. Several actors shared their priceless experiences with the Jewel Thief star. Veteran actress Saira Banu, who had shared her most treasured moments with the actor, was among the crowd. The seasoned actress recently revealed some ‘funny’ scenes from the filming of their joint project, Pyar Mohabbat.

Saira Banu commemorated Dev Anand today, on September 27, by posting many images from her renowned films. She included a video clip of the song Pyar Mohabbat Ke Siva from the 1966 film Pyar Mohabbat in the first post. “I had mentioned yesterday that I will be sharing an incident with Dev Saab today, this is a rather funny one. We were shooting in a small, dingy boat in the middle of the sea, Dev Saab was getting uncomfortable with the swinging boat and once he toppled out of the boat and fell right into the seawater.”

She further added, “At that time I had this terrible habit of giggling and laughing uncontrollably for minutes together. We pulled him out of the water into the dingy boat and my laughter wouldn’t stop. Dev Saab for the first time looked so angrily at me that I could’ve frozen!”

She continued, ““Another incident happened at Baalbek, Lebanon where I was singing a song in the resplendent ruins and a huge crowd of foreigners gathered around to watch the shoot. Apparently “JUNGLEE” had been popularly released over there and the crowd was shouting out to us “SHAMMI KAPOOR…….SHAMMI KAPOOR” Oh God- — they had mistaken Dev Saab for Shammi Kapoor. Just imagine the big heartedness of Dev Saab that he played around to them, waving his hands, smiling at them and saying Yes…Yes…..Hello…..Hello. I am Shammi Kapoor. How big hearted he was”.

As she shared the legendary actor working on a story that he was going to direct himself, Saira Banu came to a conclusion in her post. Dev Saab was busy drafting the script for “PREM PUJARI,” which he planned to direct himself, for the duration of the outdoor excursion, the author said. “Saira… You have to do this film with me,” he wrote, narrating it each day with pleasure and joy. Dev Saab decided that the script’s conclusion would take place in Rome, and he also decided that Naseemji and I would go out to dinner there to celebrate while we continued to film around Europe. That’s exactly what we did.

“Back home again on the sets of ‘PYAR MOHABBAT’ where we had to show a storm happening on the ship in the same shooting, the set was tilted to such extreme levels that Dev Saab and I both crashed through sheer Twelve Feet glass windows and were cut up badly. By the grace of God we got away lightly. These were some memories of many with Dev Saab,” Banu concluded.

Dev Anand dissuaded Shatrughan Sinha from having plastic surgery to cover up his facial scar

March 5, 2023 by Nida Sumair

Shatrughan Sinha opened up about his scar on his face.
He got after trying to imitate his uncle’s beard.
He contemplated plastic surgery, but Dev Anand stopped him.

Shatrughan Sinha talked openly about how the scar on his face made him feel self-conscious. He recently made an appearance on Arbaaz Khan’s talk show, The Invincibles, where he explained how he acquired the scar while attempting to mimic his uncle’s beard-shaving technique. The seasoned actor claimed that he even considered having plastic surgery, but Dev Anand dissuaded him.

He related to Arbaaz how, as a child, he ended up slashing his cheeks and those of his cousin, leaving a scar on his face. I first cut my cousin’s cheek, then mine, he said in Hindi. They provided me with first aid at home, and that was it, continued Shatrughan. But as I gained some notoriety and began acting in movies, I started to question whether I should have it corrected. I even spoke to a plastic surgeon since I had a phobia over the scar.

“I frequently saw Dev Anand back when I was fighting for equality. Bhool ke bhi mat karna, Dev Saab ne kaha bilkul nahi karna. He categorically stopped me from having the scar corrected and informed me that even he had a tooth gap that finally became fashionable. Dekho mere daant ke bich me bhi gaddha hai. “Bahut jagah banaonga, kya kaise karunga, mujhko, lagta tha ki apni kati-phati shakal le kar aa raha hoon main filmo mein. I used to feel extremely ashamed because I thought I was going into Bollywood with a less-than-ideal look. Plastic surgeon se bhi baat kar lee thi humne.

At the moment, Shatrughan Sinha is a member of parliament and a leader of the All India Trinamool Congress. After earning his degree from Pune’s Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), he started his acting career. He made his acting debut in 1969 with Sajan and went on to star in a number of movies, including Mere Apne (1971) by Gulzar, Dost (1974) by Dulal Guha, Raaste Kaa Patthar (1972), Shaan (1980), and Kaala Patthar (1979).

Mumtaz claims she has never had botox but uses fillers when she is “very thin”

February 11, 2023 by Nida Sumair

Mumtaz is an evergreen beauty icon of Bollywood, admitting to taking fillers and being ‘chirpy’ about it.
Mumtaz made her Bollywood debut with the 1958 film Sone Ki Chidiya.
She took a break of 13 years and marked her comeback with Aandhiyan.

Mumtaz, a seasoned actor, continues to be the Bollywood industry’s unwavering beauty icon. She recently disclosed her beauty secrets and acknowledged using fillers. She added that she was not well-liked by the “heroines” of her period. She claimed that despite this, she stayed upbeat about it.
At the age of eleven, Mumtaz made her Bollywood debut in the 1958 movie Sone Ki Chidiya. She produced a number of blockbuster movies, many of which featured Rajesh Khanna, who was one of the most well-liked on-screen couples of the 1970s. Later, after a 13-year sabbatical, she made a dramatic comeback with Aandhiyan in 1990 before announcing her retirement from acting.

The 75-year-old performer said that she was treated unfairly by female actors. She told that she remembered Dev Anand telling her about it and that he advised her to take care of her physique and hair. I should always endeavour to look young, he advised. Age is a bloody number, he muttered to Mumzi. I can still have a boyfriend at 90, he claimed, assuming I look well. He questioned my desire for evidence. Three girls were waiting for him in the other room, and he showed me by opening a door that they were there. However, he was 80 at the time.

“I heed Dev Anand’s counsel. And I heed Akshay Kumar’s recommendation that we avoid eating after 6 o’clock. I sometimes use fillers when I am too thin. However, I would never have botox treatment since, in her words, “Botox feels like someone has inserted seeds into the cheeks on the left side and the right side.”

For the first time ever, Mumtaz was recently spotted in a TV programme. On season 13 of Indian Idol, she made a guest appearance alongside Dharmendra. She continues to be absent from movies though. Mumtaz once responded during a live session to a fan’s question on her comeback to the business, “Bollywood? I have no idea. I’m not sure if I’ll land the kind of part that genuinely speaks to my heart while also being kind and well-liked by others. She said, “First I will have to get my husband’s approval,” as her daughter laughed. He’ll say, “All right, you may do one.” So perhaps I will. In such case, no.
