Naseem Banu
Naseem Banu (1916-2002) was an Indian film actress. She was referred to as Naseem and known as "Beauty Queen" and the "first female superstar" of Indian Cinema. Starting her acting career in the mid-1930s she continued to act till mid-1950s. Her first film was ''Khoon Ka Khoon'' (Hamlet) (1935) with Sohrab Modi under whose Minerva Movietone banner she acted for several years. Her high-point came with Modi's ''Pukar'' (1939) in which she played the role of Empress Nur Jahan. According to composer Naushad she got the sobriquet Pari-Chehra (fairy face) Naseem through the publicity advertisements of her films. She was the mother of popular actress Saira Banu and mother-in-law to the renowned actor Dilip Kumar.
==Early Years==
Born in Delhi, India, to the head of a wealthy aristocratic family, Naseem’s father was Nawab Abdul Waheed Khan of Hasanpur. Naseem, named Roshana, studied at Queen Mary's High School, Delhi; her mother Shamshad Begum, wanted her to become a doctor. Shamshad Begum, also known as Chhamian Bai〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Naseem Banu )〕 was a famous and well earning singer of those days. Naseem once stated that her mother earned more than her even when she, Naseem, was earning a salary of 3,500.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Naseem Banu Stardust interview from 1971 )〕
Naseem was keen on films and admired the actress Sulochana (Ruby Myers), ever since she had seen a film of hers, but her mother was against the idea of films.〔 On a visit to Bombay, Naseem got interested in seeing the film shootings and at one of the sets she was approached by Sohrab Modi to play Ophelia in his film Hamlet. Her mother refused permission and Naseem went on a hunger-strike till her mother agreed. Having played the role, Naseem was unable to continue her education as the school was shocked at her acting in films, then considered a lowly profession.〔
