by IANS
Mumbai: Mumtaz, the heartthrob of millions in the 1960s and 1970s, turns 65 Tuesday and says she has no complaints from life except for loneliness. "After I got married, my husband has given me lots of comforts. I enjoy the life of affluence. But I am a bit lonely," Mumtaz told the author on phone from London.

Her elder daughter Natasha is married to actor Fardeen Khan and settled here, while her husband Mayur Madhvani, whom she married in 1974, and younger daughter Tanya are constantly travelling for work.

"What do I do? I can't follow them around the world, can I," she said, adding that she doesn't socialise. And "I rarely drink. I am not a night person. Clubs are not my scene".
