Ah, Bollywood! Where drama happens both on and off the screen, and where ‘pati, patni aur woh’ takes on a whole new meaning. Today’s gossip special is all about the legendary tragedy queen, Meena Kumari, and her rather ahem interesting relationship with her stepson, Tajdar Amrohi. Ready for some juicy tidbits? Let’s dive in!
So, picture this: Meena Kumari, the epitome of tragic cinema, was not just all about the ‘rona-dhona’ on screen. Her real life had its own set of twists and turns. Everyone knows about her tumultuous marriage with the filmmaker Kamal Amrohi, but did you know about her sweet bond with her stepson? Haan haan, Tajdar Amrohi once casually expressed his desire to marry her! 🤯
Now, before you let your imagination run wild, let me clarify. According to some khabar from Bollywood Shaadi, this was a harmless comment made by a young Tajdar. In a nostalgic chat, he reminisced about how he once told his beloved Choti Ammi, "Kaash mein itna chota nahin hota. Phir main aapse shaadi kar leta." Can you imagine the scene? Kamal Amrohi, overhearing this, just smiled. Talk about bindaas parenting! 😂
Both Meena and Kamal shrugged this off with the sort of grace only Bollywood royalty can muster. Tajdar fondly remembers that Meena Kumari never tried to separate Kamal from his first family. Instead, she respected his mother and never gave any reason for resentment. Quite the classy act, Choti Ammi! Despite the complexities, Tajdar always cherished her, saying she remained the love of Kamal’s life.
Meena Kumari tied the knot with Kamal Amrohi when she was just 18, while Kamal was 34. But alas, this filmi kahani didn’t have a happy ending. Kamal’s overbearing possessiveness led to frequent squabbles, and ultimately, they parted ways in 1964. To deal with her heartbreak, Meena turned to brandy. But like any good Bollywood plot, what was meant to be a temporary escape became a tragic downfall. Her health deteriorated, and she left this world on March 31, 1972.
Kiran’s Gyan: In Bollywood, relationships are as unpredictable as a monsoon wedding! Whether it’s a stepson wanting to marry his stepmom or a marriage unraveling due to ‘possessive’ drama, one thing is certain: our industry never lacks masala! So, if you ever find yourself in a Bollywood-esque situation, remember, thoda sa humor aur thoda sa brandy might help, but not too much of either! 😜
