In a world full of grand gestures and expensive gifts, Saira Banu reveals that the most cherished gift of her life was neither wrapped in a box nor tied with a ribbon, Dilip Kumar.
It was a simple, unforgettable moment that marked the beginning of her legendary love story with Dilip Kumar.
Saira Ji fondly recalls that evening, a party at her home, which turned extraordinary when the legendary Dilip Kumar walked in. As they exchanged pleasantries, he held her hand, looked into her eyes, and remarked, “My, you have grown up into a beautiful girl.” That single, heartfelt compliment set the wheels of destiny in motion.
“In that brief moment, when he shook my hand and spoke those kind words, I felt as if time had stopped. Little did I know that this would be the start of a bond of a lifetime. ” Saira Banu recalls.
The very next morning, Dilip Sahab called her mother, the esteemed Naseem Banu, to express his gratitude for the evening. That phone call was more than just a polite gesture—it was the beginning of a love story that would captivate generations. Within days, the couple began dating, laying the foundation for a lifelong partnership that would become one of Indian cinema’s most iconic relationships.
Attached is a photograph from that unforgettable night, capturing the magic of a moment that would change their lives forever.
