Mumbai,. Veteran actress Saira Banu on Tuesday shared another throwback photo on photo-sharing app Instagram and revealed that during her childhood, she was a fan of actress Vyjayanthimala and actor Dilip Kumar.
The veteran actress remembers cutting posters from magazines from an old photoshoot of the film ‘Madhumati’ and pasting them on her wall. The film ‘Madhumati’ is celebrating its 65th anniversary.
Apart from Saira’s husband Dilip Kumar, the film stars Vyjayanti Mala, whom Saira fondly calls ‘Akka’ (elder sister).
Sharing a set of three pictures, Saira Banu posted on Instagram, “Often the memories of childhood and adolescence are so strange and ticklish. I remember one special thing from 1958, when I was a young girl.

Over the years, my bond with my favorite film star Vyjayanti Mala has become stronger, wherein she is now ‘Akka’ (elder sister) to me, and we talk to each other every other week,” he said. , “I had a habit of pasting pictures of my favorite heartthrobs on the wall right next to my bed, so that I could be the first one to see them. Exactly a year ago I had seen Sahab’s brilliant performance in ‘Aan’. Which was specially displayed in London.” In his note he further wrote, “Then cutouts of the King of Rock, Elvis Presley, the mysterious James Dean were also pasted on the wall. There was a letter box near our house in London which was the apple of my brother Sultan’s and my hopeful eyes as letters from our mother and friends came from India.

We used to thirst for them because we were homesick. My mother knew that I was crazy about Indian films, so she used to post the magazine every now and then for our entertainment.” She further mentioned that it was a crazy scramble between her and her brother that the magazine was first published. Who will take it?

He told that in one such magazine there was this picture of “Madhumati”, which was considered bold at that time, where Sahab was placing his face on Vyjayanti Mala’s forehead in a romantic manner. It was a beautiful picture and I was very jealous of it as a child.

Sahib was so close to his face that I picked up the scissors and deftly started cutting out that part of the picture. Just think. When I remember this, I burst into laughter.
