Nutan Career

Nutan was rejected for being dusky and thin Nutan’s mother being an actress had planned a great future for Nutan in films. She even introduced herself as a child star in a few films. But when she was just 13 years film producers began queuing outside her house with heroine roles as she was Shobna Samarth’s daughter. She was offered roles by Chandulal Shah and K Asif in movies opposite stars like Raj Kapoor and Dilip Kumar but both rejected her to be dusky, skinny and ugly. This angered her mother and in rage, she launched her as the heroine in the film Hamari Beti (1950). The film was a bitter flop! Nutan’s training at finishing school in Switzerland made her bold and beautiful Anxious of her daughter’s career Nutan’s mother decided to send her to a finishing school in Switzerland to groom her personality. In addition, the school played a vital role in developing Nutan’s professional expertise, leadership skills and multicultural fluency which helped her to shed her introverted nature. In an interview, Nutan confides that her one year of training in Switzerland was the happiest in her life. She learned many skills like a secretarial course that helped her in keeping her finance matters as she could do accounts, tax matters etc. She learned French and could speak and write. And most important she gained forty pounds and that made her personality charming and gorgeous. Nutan makes her presence felt in Bollywood with Seema Nutan was able to make her presence felt with Seema (1955). Director Amiya Chakravarty, known for making hit films like Dilip Kumar’s Daag and Jwar Bhata or Dev Anand’s Patita gave Nutan a tailor-made role of a young girl, who is frustrated with life after her parent’s demise. Finally, she learns to fight the hurdles of life at an ashram run by Balraj Sahni. Nutan credits her success to director Amiya Chakravarty, who extracted from her the right nuances of the character Seema. Secondly, she applauded Balraj Sahni, who taught her the art of natural performance. The movie fetched Nutan her First Filmfare Best Actress Award. Nutan stuns with a swimsuit on screen! After doing initial tearjerker films like Seema and Sone Ki Chidiya, Nutan stunned her critics with her mastery of comedy and with films like Paying Guest, Anari, Dilli Ka Thug etc. What was most surprising was that in a scene in Dilli Ka Thug, Nutan left the audience flabbergasted by wearing a swimsuit, which no actress dared to wear in films those days!! Nutan won the Miss India title What’s more the film industry which had discarded her as ugly and dusky was left astonished when she even won the Miss India title in 1952!!! Nutan overtook Tragedy Queen Meena Kumari in the 60’s After the mega success of Sujata and Bandini Nutan overtook Meena Kumari in tragedy roles. In addition with South Filmmakers' movies like Khandan, Milan, Meharban, Bhai Bahen, Gauri and many more films like Saraswati Chandra and Dil Ne Phir Yaad Kiya, Saajan Bina Suhagan, Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki (1978) etc Nutan became an ideal Sati Savitri heroine. Nutan takes challenging roles Anti-Heroine roles Being a talented actress Nutan proved her critics wrong by accepting some anti-heroine roles like Saajan Ki Saheli in which she played a modern woman with a glamour outfit. It was an out-and-out negative role and she played superbly. Nutan and Dilip Kumar work for the first time in Karma Nutan always wished to work with Dilip Kumar but the two could never work at the prime of their career in the 80s when Dilip Kumar made a comeback, filmmaker Subhash Ghai decided to bring the two together as husband and wife in his blockbuster Karma (1986).
