Bollywood has witnessed many love stories. While many of them turned into reality others remained incomplete. There are so many Bollywood love stories that have become extremely famous but then there are some that people are not even aware of till date. Today we will bring one such story which remained away from the public glare; however when people got to know they were stunned. A famous director was once deeply in love with one of the most famous actresses of her time. Today this actress is away from the limelight but during her time she won hearts and turned tables.
Let us tell you that the actress we are talking about is Mumtaz and the man who fell deeply in love was late director Yash Chopra. Mumtaz once ruled the film industry. She made her debut as a child artist in the film ‘Sone Ki Chidiya’.
Over the years Mumtaz created her dominance in the industry and also turned out to be one of the highest-paid actresses of her time. When Mumtaz started making headlines she grabbed the attention of Yash Chopra. Mumtaz played lead roles in several films directed by BR Chopra Yash Chopras brother during a time when Yash Chopra was working as an assistant on those projects.
What followed next was that Yash started visiting Mumtaz. Not just that he even proposed to the actress to get married to him. But she never got romantically involved with him.
In an interview with Pinkvilla the veteran actress opened up about the same. She said Yash used to say hey moti I love you yaar… marry me. When Yashs elder brother BR Chopra came to know about Yashs feelings towards Mumtaz he agreed to get them married. He also went to Mumtazs house to talk about their marriage but things did not work out. It is said that at that time Mumtazs career had reached its peak due to which her family was not ready to get them married.
Post the breakup Yash went to Delhi to appear for an exam where he met Pamela and thats when their story started. The duo eventually fell in love and got married.
