Mumtaz, aka Mumtaz Askari Madhvani, celebrates her 77th birthday on July 31. The actress, who has worked in more than 100 Hindi films in her movie career, recently opened up about how marriages in today's world don't work.
In an interview with Times Now, Mumtaz blamed social media for unsuccessful marriages. She said that people today have no sense of lifelong commitment. "First fight, and they want to quit. Plus, social media has made it worse," she added.
Further, the actress said that people send nude photographs to each other on the phone. She added, "Log pataa nahin kya kya karte aur likhte rehta hain. It is not necessary to unclothe to get attention. There is so much more mystery appeal interest with clothes on."
She said that nowadays everything has become cheap. However, throughout her career, she maintained her dignity. Even today, she is recognised by people wherever she goes.

Earlier, there were rumours around her husband's affair. Reacting to the same, Mumtaz told Pinkvilla that it is common for men to have affairs through the backdoor. She revealed that her husband has an affair.
Mumtaz stated that she respects her husband, as he disclosed the affair himself. He told her that he had a liking for a girl in the USA, where he was born and brought up.
"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), and nakchadi (difficult). 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," she added.
