Shatrughan revealed Sanjeev Kumar died of a broken heart

'The women he loved didn’t love him back': Shatrughan Sinha once revealed Sanjeev Kumar died of a broken heart

Shatrughan Sinha reminisced about his bond with the late actor Sanjeev Kumar, calling him an “unmatchable talent.” Sinha revealed that Kumar, despite being a foodie and loved by many, passed away from a broken heart. He explained that the women Kumar loved did not reciprocate his feelings, and he only wished to marry someone his mother approved of.

Shatrughan Sinha had once opened up about his bond with Sanjeev Kumar. He also revealed that the late actor died of a broken heart as the woman he loved didn’t love him back.

Remembering Sanjeev Kumar’s talent

In conversation with Koimoi in 2023, Shatrughan said, “Sanjeev Kumar was an unmatchable talent. Balki main toh yeh kahunga ke humne kuch bhi nahin dekha(I’d say we saw nothing of his talent when he passed way).What a powerful presence he had on screen! I had the privilege of doing several films with him. Offhand, I can recall Beraham and Bad Aur Badnaam. There was other film with us together which Sunil Dutt Saab was going to direct. It never got made. We were also together in Qatl in which Haribhai—that’s what we affectionately called Sanjeev—made his last appearance. Then he died suddenly and left us.”

Died of a broken heart

Elaborating further, he added, “He died of a heart attack. Lekin mein toh kahunga unki maut dil tootne se hui(I’d say he died of a broken heart). There was no dearth of love in Haribhai’s life. The problem was, the women he loved did not love him back. And those who loved him, he did not love back. Also, I think he wanted to marry only the woman that his mother would approve of. Haribhai was a big foodie. He loved all kinds of cuisine. Every woman who wanted to win him over cooked for him.””We were both notorious latecomers on the sets. I don’t know about him. But I came late because I had a sleeping problem. And I did yoga after waking up,” he recalled.
