His secret marriage to a woman named Asma was the talk of the town.” He further mentioned that he was alongside Dilip Kumar during the entire film shoot, other actors like Pran, Ashok Kumar, Amrish Puri, Prem Chopra, and Amrita Singh were present with him shooting an intense sequence. While Dilip Kumar was busy getting ready for the scene, Ashok Kumar on the other screamed out of nowhere, calling out on Dilip Kumar’s dual marriage and how he was able to manage two wives.
Rishi Kapoor in his biography wrote, “Dilip Kumar, who was an exponent of method acting, was all set to deliver a dramatic dialogue when suddenly Ashok Kumar asked him, Yusuf tell me this, we cannot handle one wife, how do you handle two wives? The actor further wrote and said that everyone was shocked by this question. He further wrote, we were all shocked and I prepared myself for the explosion. But the surprise was that Dilip Kumar replied with complete calm and said, Ashok Bhaiya first let me finish this scene first, then we will talk about it. There was a long-standing friendship between the two legends – Ashok Kumar could say anything to Dilip Kumar and get away with it.”
