When I got the incident communicated to Kamal Saheb, I thought he would come running and fire Baqar. When Nargis visited her at hospital, she asked, “Manju, you are free, but what use is such freedom if you are bent on killing yourself?” She replied, “Baaji, my patience has a limit.

This consumption of alcohol was proving to be detrimental to her health, and she went down with jaundice. By this time, stories of Meena Kumar’s alcoholism began to surface. Meena had a showdown with Baqar on the sets of Pinjre Ke Panchhi, and matters got ‘so turbulent’ that he did not step into Kamal’s house again. Later, she learnt that Meena Kumar had walked out of Kamal’s home and had started living in Mehmood’s house.

They returned to Bombay, and Nargis said that they didn’t meet for a long time. Nargis wrote, “I caught hold of Kamal Amrohi’s secretary Baqar and spoke to him in direct terms, ‘Why do you people want to kill Meena? She has worked enough for your sake, For how long is she going to feed you?’ He said, when the right time comes, we will rest her.”

Liver cirrhosis was determined to be the cause of her death. She slid into a coma and died on March 31, 1972. Just three weeks after Pakeezah’s release, Meena Kumari was critically ill. Nargis didn’t believe this entirely and her suspicion was confirmed when she heard ‘suggestive sounds of violence’ from her room. Nargis revealed that one night during a trip to Madras for a film shoot, she had seen Meena panting heavily in the garden of the hotel and when she inquired, Meena said that she was fine, it could just be tobacco.
