The wrinkles on your faces are not signs of how much you have aged, but how beautifully your marriage has survived the test of time.”</em> There could not have been a more better verse to describe the eternal bond that Bollywood’s ‘original it’ couple share with each other. We are indeed talking about the living legend Dilip Kumar and his ‘angelic wife’ Saira Bano, who celebrate 50 golden years of their wedding today. Readers may recall that the thespian Dilip Kumar, who debuted as an actor in the film <em>Jwar Bhata</em> in 1944, got married to Saira Bano (who was 22 years younger than him), in the year 1966. Even though the couple had seen a handful of ups and downs in their relationship, Saira Bano stood like a rock besides her ‘saahab’, thus, setting an example of what a successful marriage is all about.

Pran Kishan Sikand
Pran Kishan Sikand dreamt of becoming a professional photographer. Little did he know that a measly, humble ‘paan’ (betel leaf) would change his life and set him on his destined path. It was 1939 or thereabouts. Pran was at a ‘paan’ shop at Lahore, enjoying a munch with his friends when a stranger approached him and asked whether he wanted to act in films. Pran was amused and asked his name. Stranger introduced himself as Muhammad Walli, a renowned film maker in the flourishing film district of Lahore. He said he was making a Punjabi film and Pran looked a perfect fit for the role of a villain in the film. Pran just brushed him off. Walli kept insisting that he pay a visit to the studio, and pushed a piece of paper with his address into Pran’s hands. The film was Yamla Jat (1940), a runaway hit that year.
