Known as Beauty Queen and the first female superstar of Indian Cinema, Naseem Banu  (real name Roshanara Begum) was only a schoolgirl when she was offered the role of Ophelia in Sohrab Modi's Hamlet (1935). Born into a wealthy family, Naseem was enchanted by movies as a young girl and became determined to be an actress. Her beauty attracted a myriad of film offers, but she had to resort to a hunger strike before her family would allow her to appear in movies. On the occasion of Naseem Banu's birth anniversary, let's remember the gorgeous actress who stole everyone's heart with her beauty and talent.
