Cute Tamanna Begum

Dunya main itna kuch dekhnay baad koi tamanna nahi reh jati.  So Tamanna nahi raheen.

Tamanna Begum passed away today and even buried before the news of her death would spread.  A legendary actress who had 50 years of experience in film, radio, tv and stage.  She worked with almost all celebrities of Pakistan including Muhammad Ali, Zeba, Rani, Nadeem, Waheed Murad, Shahid, Deeba, Shubnum, Shamim Ara, Qawi Khan, Babra Sharif, Sangeeta, Abid Ali, Lehri, Rangeela, Munawwar Zarif, Munawwar Saeed, Nisho, Umar Sharif, Moin Akhtar and almost everyone in that field.  She was the best pair with Nanna (Rafi Khawar).  She usually played loud and evil but was a sweet person in real, a true pure and simple lady.

She was cute, chubby and very confident.   In my childhood, I used to get angry on her that why is she so evil and doesn’t let people live happily in movies.  But later I started enjoying her characters.  Her exaggerated expressions were just like fairy tale characters.  I really loved her commanding style.

This is my favourite song and one of the reasons I like it, is Tamanna Begum.
