Why did Mala Sinha's friends call him Dalda Sinha in school?

Actress Mala Sinha, who ruled the hearts of people with her beauty and excellent acting in the 50s and 60s, gave many hit films to Hindi cinema. Today, on 11 November, Mala Sinha celebrates her birthday. Mala Sinha was born in Nepal. In the early days of her career, a Bollywood producer insulted her a lot.

Not only this, the producer asked her to look at her face in the mirror and refused to give her work. The producer told her that you dream of becoming a heroine with such an ugly nose. Later, this girl made a special identity for herself as a great actress. Mala Sinha's father Albert Sinha was from Bengal. This is why people called her Nepali-Indian Bala.

Mala Sinha's mother was from Nepal. Mala's school name was Alda, which sounded a little strange, and perhaps that is why Mala's school friends used to call her Dalda. Mala's parents used to call her Mala. Some friends used to call her Dalda Sinha and some called her Baby Sinha. Mala did not like both of these names. Therefore, she changed her name to Mala Sinha.

Mala Sinha came to Mumbai for the first time for a Bengali film. Here she met the famous actress of her time, Geeta Bali. It was she who introduced Mala to director Kedar Sharma. Kedar Sharma immediately liked Mala and he gave her work as an actress in his film 'Rangeen Raaton'.

It is said that it was Kedar Sharma who gave Mala Sinha a special identity in Bollywood. Mala used to sing songs on the radio before films. Let us tell you that the script of the 1957 film Pyaasa was first written for Madhubala. But due to some reason Madhubala could not do this film and this film came in Mala Sinha's lap.

After this film, Mala's luck changed. On the other hand, it is also said about Mala Sinha that she once made such a comment about Zeenat Aman and Parveen Bobby that both these actresses became very angry with Mala. Mala had said about both the actresses that both of them look more like models than actresses, and actresses only have their bodies to show.

Mala Sinha's specialty was that even after becoming such a famous actress, she lived like a normal girl in her house. Mala was very afraid of her father. No servant was kept in her house. That is why after returning home from shooting, she used to cook food herself in the house. Mala lived a very simple life in the house. Mala was married to Chindbar Prasad Lohani.

Mala worked in big films like Bahurani, Gumraah, Apne Hue Paraye, Jahanara, Baharen Phir Bhi Aayenge, Dhool Ka Phool, Do Kaliyan, Phir Subah Hogi, Holi Aayi Re, Anpadh and Nayi Roshni.
