Mumtaz was in love with Shammi Kapoor

Mumtaz said Shammi kapoor breathtakingly handsome and he proposed me but "I was only 18-years-old when he told me that he wanted to settle down with me. I was getting several film offers and I didn't want to marry so early in my life," she explained. Revealing further that her denial did not result into a sour relationship between them. "It was a very straightforward thing. He proposed and I politely said 'No'. That was it. I respected him a lot. We all will miss him
