48 Quotes by Mumtaz

Everybody loves me but I can't make everybody my close friend. I don't make friends easily.

I wish I had 10 hands and were blessed with 48 hours a day! Work just does not seem to end.

I have been a homemaker after bidding Bollywood adieu and, therefore, been a caregiver to my family.

I couldn't join my husband's business as, according to my father-in-law's unwritten convention, women of the house aren't allowed to meddle in the family business.

I left India after marriage and built a home in U.K.

I was just 15 years old when I did my first film, 'Faulad,' in 1963, opposite Dara Singh. Although I had worked earlier as a child actress, this was my first break as a lead heroine.

As an actress, I had a very short career - it lasted 12 years.

To a certain extent, I can say I owe my career to Dara Singh because after doing films with him, I started getting good offers. I have very high regards for him. As a person, he was very protective about me and used to take care of me on the sets. He was very soft-spoken and a fine gentleman. He was disciplined and punctual.

I got to work with A-grade stars like Rajendra Kumar, Feroz Khan and Rajesh Khanna.
