While every Bollywood flick may be bubbling with the emotions of eternal romance, very few real-life celebrity couples can be remembered for lifelong devotion towards their partners. However, there's one couple, who holds a special place in the hearts of every generation. Yes! We are talking about the evergreen couple, Dilip Kumar and Saira Banu. They have always stayed by each other's side through the thick and thin of life. And, theirs is a love story that overcame an age difference of 22 years and is still going strong. As the former actress had herself recalled and confessed that she was all in love with Dilip Kumar right from the age of 12.

However, not many people are aware of the fact that Saira Banu's mother and the legendary actress, Naseem Banu had played Cupid between her daughter and the King of tragedy. Later they had gotten married in 1966 when the diva, Saira Banu was only 22, and Dilip Kumar was 44. Well, there aren't a lot of pictures of Dilip Kumar with his mother-in-law, Naseem Banu. That is the reason why the picture that you're going to see is a priceless one.
For the uninitiated, Naseem Banu is unarguably the greatest actress in the history of Indian cinema. The actress is still referred as the first female superstar, beauty queen, and Pari-Chehra. On July 25, 2020, we stumbled upon a rare and unseen picture of Dilip Kumar with his mother-in-law, Naseem Banu. In the picture, we can see the tragedy king standing behind his wife, Saira Banu and looking handsome as always in his white shirt and maroon printed tie. The legendary actress, Naseem Banu, can be seen wearing a red outfit and looking gorgeous as ever. No wonder, this picture is a frame that speaks about the greatness of Indian cinema and one of the greatest real-life love stories that this nation had witnessed. However, there's another picture in which we can spot Dilip Kumar, Saira Banu, and Naseem Banu posing for the camera during a film festival.
