Kapil said, “Mandakini k baare mein sab jaanta hai. Pehli film jab Ram Teri Ganga Maili aayi na, har koi inka deewana hogaya tha. Shaadi shuda aami jo biwi k darr se inke posters ghar mein nahi lagate woh phir apni biwi ki photo k peeche inki photo lagate the (Everybody knows Mandakini. When her film Ram Teri Ganga Maili released everybody was moonstruck by her. Married men who would be too scared to put her posters on the wall would hide her photos behind their wives’ pictures).”

“Biwiya aake poochti thi, ‘Aare nayi heroine aayi Mandakini dekhi? Woh kehte hai, ‘Nahi maine toh nahi dekhi.’ Woh kehti hai, ‘Maine bhi nahi dekhi. Woh jab maine tumhara purse khola toh pata chala (Their wives would ask, ‘There’s a new heroine, Mandakini, did you see her?’ The men would reply, ‘No, I haven’t’. The wives would respond, ‘Neither did I. But when I opened your purse I came to know).” Mandakini laughed at this remark.

Toh aapne kabhi confirm kiya yeh writer the ya jail se choote the saare log (If you see the names of Sangeeta’s films they are very crime oriented such as Hathyar, Jurm, Paap Ki Kamaee. Did you ever confirm if they were indeed writers or convicts)?” Both Sangeeta and Mandakini burst out laughing.
