This superstar was madly in love with Hema Malini, didn’t marry her, later linked to another actress, was ‘cursed’ to remain bachelor, died at a young age due to..

There have been actors who opted to remain bachelors all their life comparable to Salman Khan, Sushmita Sen, Tabu, Asha Parekh, and Karan Johar. One such actor from the 1960s was once cursed to remain single all his life. He was once a lover boy and actresses were crazy for him. But he loved Hema Malini and wanted to marry her. Here’s what was once stopping him from marrying the actor. Read on.

The famous person remained single all his life. He had proposed to Hema Malini in 1973 and that they were in a legit relationship thereafter. But things went haywire when Sanjeev’s mother demanded that Hema shouldn't work after marriage. Their relationship ended that very moment and Hema Malini moved on with Dharmendra. We are talking about actor Sanjeev Kumar.

While Sanjeev was once in love with Hema, actress Sulakshana Pandit wanted to marry him. She also proposed marriage to him which he courteously declined.

Sanjeev Kumar romanced with Hema Malini

In his 1973 interview, Sanjeev wrote, “Till the age of 26, I never touched a lady. The first time I first fell deeply and seriously in love, was once around that time. I wished more than anything else to marry her. But she was once a Muslim girl, If I was once once the youngest son of my mother, I might have said to hell with the area and married her.” There was once a time when Sanjeev Kumar confessed his feelings for Saira Bano. Sarosh Modi wrote about Kumar’s love life all through the December 1982 issue of Stardust: “Every woman whom Sanjeev loved and yearned for, ditched him, leaving him high and dry. His ego is terribly hurt.

The explanation why Sanjeev Kumar remained unmarried all his life

Consistent with reports, including one published by Laharen, Sanjeev Kumar was once believed to have been less than a family curse, which caused great tragedy across generations. The curse supposedly dictated that the eldest son all through the family would lose their father at a young age, specifically after they turned 10. This pattern reportedly resulted in the early deaths of several men in Sanjeev Kumar’s family, including his grandfather, father, uncle, and brother, all of whom passed away prior to the age of fifty.

As a result of this, Sanjeev Kumar feared that if he married and had children, they'd suffer the identical fate. For that reason, he chose now not to marry, haunted by the be anxious of this family curse. Sadly, Sanjeev Kumar himself died of a heart attack on November 6, 1985, on the age of forty seven.
