HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARMILA:
Another subsequent project for the Samanta, Sharmila and Rajesh Khanna was the 1972 hit Amar Prem. Tagore was accorded the role of Pushpa, a courtesan in Kolkata. The film was most remembered for Khanna's dialogue, "Pushpa I hate tears".
With all the success garnered by the Sharmila-Rajesh duo, it was inevitable that other directors would choose to pair them together. The two went on to do Daag, Maalik and Safar.
