The iconic actress Mumtaz, the heartthrob of millions danced her way into immortality with iconic numbers like Aaj kal tere mere pyar ke charche(Bramhachari), Bindiya chamkegi(Do Raaste) and Jai jai shiv shankar(Aap Ki Kasam). “I remember we opted for an orange saree instead of a gown . Eventually it was made and it was a big hit.”Ask her to name her favourite film from her vast repertoire and she answers, “I can’t name my favourite. It was Vijay Anand’s Tere Mere Sapne. But Tere Mere Sapne was the toughest.”Mumtaz’s last film Aaina before she married and quit at the peak of her career, also starred Rajesh Khanna.
