CastAway 488 Posted January 16, 2022 4 hours ago, The Old Crem said: Is it common in India for Government officials to be giving celebrity health updates? Take this from an Indian from Maharashtra - Mangeshkar is more than a celebrity in India. She's known as the Nightingale of India for good reason - she started her career around Indian independence and sung for every major movie for a good 4+ decades. She's literally been the playlist of several generations of people. Additionally, she's also sung major religious and nationalistic songs over the years which have had a major impact on the country. There's maybe three/four "mainstream" celebs whose health demands this amount of attention in the country - Tendulkar, Amitabh Bacchan, Mangeshkar, and Rajnikanth. Bacchan and Rajnikanth's deaths will almost certainly cause the country to shutdown, and I won't be surprised if that will happen for Tendulkar and Mangeshkar as well, but they'll definitely cause Maharashtra to shut down (both are from and live in the state) EDIT: Easiest comparison to a former deathlister is Gord Downie. When Downie died, Canada shut down. When Mangeshkar dies, so will India (her death will be less tragic, of course, given her age, but it won't change the impact I don't think) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,701 Posted February 2, 2022 I wonder who will be the last one living from the 1920s bollywood faces from that list. As Gulzar seems to have been born in 1934, three remain... Kamini Kaushal is probably bedridden and Lata Mangeshkar is currently in ICU. Is Mumtaz Begum even alive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gisooo 3,319 Posted February 18, 2022 4 minutes ago, Ulitzer95 said: Evidence that the mother is still alive? So far I have no evidence but it is being discussed everywhere that the oldest of Bollywood actress is Mumtaz Begum, then there is no news of her death. she was alive in 2009. A veteran actress with her daughter also a veteran actress could not die off the radar in my opinion. India announces deaths of unknown actors with 2 3 movies credit. Moreover her daughter, has not expressed any news that she has died. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markb4 892 Posted February 18, 2022 I'm not sure if Waheeda Rehman's mother is the actress, Mumtaz Begum. I can't find any supporting evidence to suggest that. I think her mother just happens to have the same name. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
