I don't remember Elvis throwing himself down and rolling on the floor or ground like jumbhy hold him and then running in the bushes and hugging trees . LOL. Anyway his father owned the studio. Raj Kapoor was the best of the three brothers. Shashi tried but some movies flopped.

Sharukh is King Khan.

Shahsi was an Ok actor..he did few great movies..n esp as co-star with AB like Dewar n Trishul, Kabhi Kabhie .  He also tried to dance. She had a bit of Raj n Shammi mannerism

yes Raj Kapoor was a GREAT actor..alongside Dilip n Dev Anand

even An evening in Paris ..also Kashmir ki Kali

I wasnt fond of his dance performance but nevertheless..i loved his movies n him as an actor.  I have seem nay of his movies !! Professor was a big hit as well

i saw an old black n white with him n mala sinha..dont rem the name.

he was in Andalusia too with Hema n Rajesh Khanna..that was a good movie

btw

i think he tried to copy the dressing style of John Wayne..the shirt collar n scarf!!

Poor chap.he tried!!

jeetendra used to try to dance but he was a ‘jumping jack’..lol

i was never fond of him

tru tru..hindi movies was the only form of entertainment we had growing up as kids..(n of course the radio/songs)

Ok here is the Indian Elvis Presley.

Chahe Koi Mujhe Junglee Kahe ...  A mad man song..' You can call me junglee/wild but I'm still a human and I still have a heart and dreams. I've fallen in love and there is nothing that I can do about it.. this tornado has been in my heart for a long time so I can't hide it now..why should I be scared of anybody? Yahoo (not the email platform) My life has just started.. I don't care what people say...' An old classic loved by generations. 3AM (Light Up 2023) (youtube.com)

Kashmir ki Kali have nice songs..

btw Shammi was brave to hang from a helicopter in a bathrobe in An Evening in Paris..

Sharmila wore a bathing suit..she was a modern girl. I rem seeing her in a HOT pants in Yakeen

Btw Shammi was married to Geeta Bali??

Later he proposed to Mumtaz but she wasnt ready to sele down so she turned him down..

he then became a spiritual man n got very very fat..

Shammi and Mumtaz closeness developed during the filming of the song 'Aajkal Tere Mere Pyar Ke Charche,' and they were together for a period of two to three years. However,  she was hesitant to marry him as he believed that women marrying into the Kapoor family should not pursue careers after marriage. That was too controlling for her.

Geeta was one year older than Shammi. Geeta said that he would ask her to get married often but she would brush it off. This went on for almost three years until one day, Geeta agreed but presented a condition – the wedding had to happen on the same day or it wouldn’t happen at all. “In 1955, we got married, here at Bandra at 4 am."

Geeta Bali passed away in 1965, ten years after being married to Shammi Kapoor. He later married Neela Devi. Shammi passed away in 2011 at the age of 79.

Yes i saw Mumtaz on a reality show last yr n she said she wasnt ready to give up her career

Every man wanted her, every woman wanted to be like her. A guy from East Coast Dem. had a major teenage crush on his neighbor who he said was Mumu's twin.      Saw her recently on India reality shows, she aged well.

She currently lives in London. Mumtaz was born to Abdul Salim Askari (a dry fruits vendor) and Shadi Habib Agha who hailed from Iran. She is a breast cancer survivor.

SHAMMI KAPOOR PROPOSED MUMTAZ FOR MARRIAGE BUT SHE SAID "NO"

By

RUBY ZAIDI

February 27, 2024

6:05 AM

When yesteryear's top most star Mumtaz was fifteen year old, she went to attend a shooting with her sister Malika, there she saw Shammi Kapoor filming a song on the sets of a film, she almost instantly expressed her desire to marry him. Little did she know that years later, the Yahoo fame star Shammi Kapoor would propose marriage to her. While the yesteryear actors didn’t get their happy ending, their love story has been one of the most talked-about Bollywood romances in the past few decades. Both Mumtaz and the late actor have been vocal about their brief love story, despite the heartbreak.

While speaking to the media, Mumtaz, who shared the screen with Shammi in Brahmachari, said she was deeply in love with him but refused to marry him because she was young and ambitious and wanted to make it big in Bollywood. “His wife Geeta Bali had passed away. During the shooting of the song ‘Aajkal Tere Mere Pyar Ke Charche’, we came closer and fell in love. We were together for two-three years. He professed his love to me and asked me to marry him. I loved him deeply but he told me that I couldn’t work after marriage as women marrying into the Kapoor clan didn’t work,” recalled Mumtaz.

It is also said that before Shammi Kapoor, Mumtaz was in love with the style icon Feroz Khan but Feroz Khan had a girl friend so she never expressed her love for Feroz Khan.

On Feroz Khan, Mumtaz the ever gorgeous said, " Feroz Khan was so handsome and full of charisma, we were working in so many films including Apradh, we were best buddies and I was in love with him, Feroz also liked me, but he loved another girl. Feroz Khan was such a handsome man that any girl would have loved to marry."
