Actor Sunil Dutt feared his conservative mother might oppose his marriage plans to actress Nargis Dutt. During a television interview on Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai, Dutt described his unconventional proposal method. He offered Nargis a ride to Marine Drive in his Fiat automobile during their courtship period. While driving, Dutt directly asked Nargis to marry him, addressing her by the nickname Birju. The actress remained silent throughout the remainder of their car journey.

Dutt prepared himself for potential rejection and considered returning to village farming if refused. His sister later congratulated him at home, revealing that Nargis had accepted the marriage proposal. The actress requested that Dutt discuss wedding plans with his mother before proceeding further. His mother granted permission despite her traditional values, stating she trusted his judgment completely. The couple celebrated their wedding ceremony on March 11, 1958, with industry friends attending the reception.
