Saira Banu Birthday Special: How A Beautiful Little Girl's Dream Came True!

Saira Banu was the only daughter of Naseem Banu, the beautiful star of the 19th and 50th! Dilip Kumar (Yusuf Khan) was one such star who was slowly but surely developing into a living legend. He often used to visit Naseem Banu (Saira Banu biography and career) who was his colleague, and it was during these meetings that little Saira saw him, and she made up her mind that she would marry him and not any other man.

Saira was sent abroad for her studies along with her brother, Sultan! It was in London itself that she saw Dilip Kumar's film 'Aan' for the first time, (Saira Banu and Dilip Kumar marriage story) and her love for the hero of her dreams became stronger. Saira returned to India, and it was only when she was in her teens that she got her first break as a leading lady in 'Junglee', and became a star with her debut film.

She was the top actress at that time and was working with all the leading male stars. One of them was Rajendra Kumar. The two worked together in films like 'Aai Milan Ki Bela', 'Jhuk Gaya Aasman', and 'Aman ', (Saira Banu top Bollywood films) and stories of their falling in love became popular, even though Rajendra Kumar was a married man with three children. Naseem Bano was very worried about the stories, so she sought the help of her friend Yusuf! He came to Naseem's house to solve the problem, (Saira Banu dance performances in films) and there also met young Saira, who was elated and overwhelmed to see the prince of her dreams. The meeting is over and the prince of her dreams is gone...

Dilip Kumar was playing a double role in 'Ram Aur Shyam'. Waheeda Rehman was one of the two heroines of the film. The producers, who were from the South, wanted to cast Saira as the second heroine, but Dilip Kumar found her too young to be his heroine, (Saira Banu's legacy in Bollywood) and the role went to upcoming star Mumtaz. Saira is hurt and decides to take some kind of sweet revenge on her dream hero. He didn't have to wait long. Naseem and his friend Yusuf were still planning how to save Saira from the hero of 'the three films'. Dilip Kumar did not let Naseem or Saira know that he had fallen in love with Saira during their meeting at Naseem's house.

Dilip Kumar, who was considered the most eligible bachelor in the country, had hundreds of girls fall for him and wanted to marry him. He decided to marry Saira, and their marriage was called the marriage of the century. Dilip Kumar, the great artist of the century, was forty-four years old, and Saira, the "Queen of Beauty," (Saira Banu's contribution to Indian cinema) was only twenty-two years old. The marriage created a sensation all over, and the next day all the leading dailies featured the couple's picture on the front page.

The little girl's dream finally came true and how! This love is a strange gift from God. Love is called that which remains alive, just remains alive till doomsday.
