میں نے ان کی فلمیں تو نہیں دیکھی لیکن میں نے ان کے گانے ضرور سنے مجھے پتہ نہیں کیوں یہ اتنی پسند ہے اور میں سوچتی ہوں کہ کاش میں ان کی فلمیں بھی دیکھوں اور مجھے فلمیں ان کی ڈاؤن لوڈ کر کے دیکھنی پڑے گی لیکن مجھے بڑی اچھی لگتی ہیں یہ اداکارہ بہترین اداکارہ ہیں

She’s cute and very straightforward. Glad to see her after decades.

When we were youngsters, my family bought a lot of film magazines, mostly Hollywood stuff, but one Indian magazine Filmfare was a must. I vividly recall seeing lovely Shyama gracing several covers and inside spreads. She was always glamorous and sported the best fashions of the 50's. I found a lot of stars of that era most dignified and graceful. Shyama's trademark was the raising of her right eyebrow when she spoke and she still carries that trait, as evidenced in this interview. She had the loveliest eyes ever and spoke volumes with it to express her feelings. Her acting range was vast and she graced musicals, family dramas and comedies as well. She rose from the ranks to eventually become a leading lady. She starred with all the top leading men in her heyday: Dilip Kumar saab, Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor, Guru Dutt and Bharat Bhusan to name a few. Her films that come to mind include: Tarana, Sharada, Zabak, Aar Paar and Jaanwar. There's a haunting song from Zabak [Teri duniya se door] that still lives on and every time I hear it tears well up in my eyes and I get goose flesh. Though she had gained weight over the years, her skin remained beautiful and unlined. She reminded me so much of the way Shabana Azmi now looks. Proud of her glorious Muslim heritage, her shimmering blue and silver outfit was an eye-catcher. Shyama will always be loved and her memory will always exist with movie fans of the 50's and 60's. Rest in peace dear lady, you were wonderful!

Shyama and Shakila both were very beautiful in the movie

[@moinakbhattacharya878]

These actresses have different level of aura, dignity, spontaneity

[@dhananjay608]

That Zamana she is talking about was different. I must have been 8 or 9 years of age. My one Mausi was very fond of movies and she used to take me with her whenever she used to go to see movies. I remember seeing movies like "Mein Bhi Ladki Hoon" Mein chup Rahoongi" etc. When Meena kumar starts crying these ladies in the audience used to weep and wipe their tears. Movies were mainly based on stories and the music. Symbolic things were one Hero and a Heroin and a Comedian. Later it was added my Helen's dance.

Shyamaji is too simple. The way she gave her deliberation is praiseworthy. One thing hasn't been mentioned is that she also worked with Ashoke Kumar in film "Bhai Bhai". We are eager to know when this interview was taken.

She mentions Nirupa Roy who passed away in 2004. Very old interview but a treasure.

[@Anamika-if5fh]

She was my favourite heroine though i am not from her era but i like old movies especially from 1950s to 1970s. I like her songs like ye ishak ishak hai, ae dil jara bata de tu kis pe aa gaya hai, ye lo main hari piya etc. she was so sweet and innocent even at this age. Her skin is so soft flowless without wrinkles even at this age. But i think this interview was recorded in early 1990s. I really liked her joyful smiling face and eyes. May she live in peace!

When we were young it was Doordarshan which gave us insights of these doyens of film actors through their movies 🎬...I got to see a lot of Shyamaji's movies. She is a legend in vintage movies and for me she is soo prominent in ''AAR PAAR'' opposite Guru Duttji...GOD BLESS them 🙏 😊❤😊 We lived in their reel lives ❤️ 😊

Pehli baar Shyama Ji ka interview dekha suna hay. She had been acted mostly as a side heroen. Tarana, Bhai bhai, Barsaat ki raat, Aar par, Zabak, Sharda and Main chup rahun gi were the hit films 🎥 Very bold lady said " I drink and enjoy. Main jua nahi khailti hun jaisi batain achhi nahi lagein but it has to be said to much boldness is not good. 23 June 2024 @ 08.37am

Thanks for bringing this interview into the mainstream. However, both of you have missed out on Shyama's most popular song, "ae dil mujhe bata de" from the film Bhai Bhai. Nowhere has Madan Mohan come close to recreate such a titillating and delightful number in his later years.

[@mukundphanasalkar3887]

She was a great, great actress! Extremely camera-sensitive, extemporaneous, and natural, she never looked like she was "acting" out a "role". Besides, she was perhaps the most versatile actress too. Who can forget her fantastic role in Suwarnasundari? Actually, she was like water : she would assume any form like water, and that form would become Shyama...

[@dksharma9507]

I remember her last appearance in film Milan with veteran actor Surendra nath....

[@alidanish4416]

Her last appearance was probably sometime in 80s era, probably Masterji 1985 was her last appearance

Shyama ji acted as Sridevi's mother in the movie Masterji with Rajesh Khanna as the hero. It was a superhit movie, but it was a remake of a Tamil movie directed by Bhagyaraj and acted as well with South Indian actress Urvashi, that movie name is mundani mudichchu...!!! A classic movie.
