New Delhi:
Veteran actress Mumtaz has always been quite candid while opening up about her life. From real-life expectations to sharing strong bonds with co-stars, she has always been vocal about it. In a recent interview, she opened up about her husband’s extra-marital affair and talked clearly about it.
Talking to a leading website, she opened up about her husband and said, “It’s quite common for men to have affairs through the backdoor. My husband didn’t have any… except one. I respect him because he himself told me about it. He confided that he’d developed a liking for a girl in the US. He was born and brought up in America. But he insisted, ‘Mumtaz, you’re my wife. I love you and will always love you. I will never leave you.’ The problem arose because I was a little ziddi (stubborn), thodi nakchadi (difficult) thi. But today, it’s a forgotten story. Maaf toh zindagi mein ek baar Khuda bhi karta hai. I live like a queen. My husband has never kept me wanting for anything.”
“Honestly, after the episode, I began feeling lonely. Main thodi rubabwali (headstrong) thi. I felt hurt. So, I flew down to India. When you’re amidst thorns and someone comes along with a rose, you do get carried away. But it was nothing serious. Just a temporary phase, which ended soon. I’m lucky that my husband still loves me so much. Even if I fall a bit sick, hungama khada ho jaata hai (there is hue and cry about it),” she added.
This is not the first time that she has opened up on this sensitive topic. She also added that her getting into another relationship only added to the problems.
Mumtaz is now married to Mayur Madhvani and they tied the knot in 1974.
