When she had giggled it off, Shammi was said to have gone home and cried in front of his mother, only to be snubbed by her. Shammi talks about Madhubala❤ 'Are you in your senses? You can't marry her, she is a Muslim. There will be too many problems,' Shammi's mother had warned him, tersely. 'When I met her on the set of Rail Ka Dibba for the first time, I could not take my eyes off her. I was like hit by a thunderbolt,' he had confessed. In spite of his overt self-confidence and cavalier disposition, he was 'extremely nervous' taking Madhubala in his arms for an intimate scene. 'I was so nervous that I kept forgetting my lines,' he had said. 'And she was fully aware of the effect she had been having on me and was relishing it thoroughly.' He just couldn't stop the rhapsody: 'She was breathtakingly beautiful… Woh jab paani peeti thi toh aisa lagta tha jaise yahan se (runs his finger down his neck) ek nas mein se paani guzarta hua neeche ja raha hai… (when she drank water, it was as if I could see water flowing down her throat). She was so delicate.' … Could not help imagining how beautiful it would have been if I had seen Madhubala in person!! Shammi shared details about his working with her so wonderfully!! Love them both?✨ #ShammiKapoor #Madhubala
