Drawing inspiration from a line she once delivered in the classic movie *Hera Pheri*, “Mohabbat mein sawaal nahin kiye jaate” (In love, no questions are asked), Saira described how her own life echoed this sentiment. She explained that the purest form of love lies in having complete faith in your beloved, to the extent that all doubts or reasons for questioning simply fade away. This deep-rooted faith and unwavering belief in Dilip Kumar defined their marriage, allowing it to flourish without any inhibitions or uncertainties.

For Saira, love was not just a fleeting emotion but a lifelong commitment to trust and believe in the person she had chosen to spend her life with. She revealed that she never doubted or questioned Dilip Kumar, regardless of the highs, lows, or still moments in between. To her, loving him meant accepting every aspect of his personality and life without any reservations. She loved without conditions, expectations, or the need for explanations, embracing every moment they shared together.

In her emotional post, Saira expressed that love, in its truest form, is liberating and enduring. It transcends the usual boundaries of doubts and fears, allowing one to feel free from burdens and expectations. It is in this devotion, she stated, that one finds the true essence of love—a love that is not only unconditional but also deeply liberating and eternal.

Reflecting on their 55 years of togetherness, Saira acknowledged that their bond was much more than just companionship. It was about embracing each other’s strengths and flaws, standing by each other through thick and thin, and finding comfort in the silence between them. Her tribute is a testament to the timeless love they shared, one that continues to inspire generations even after Dilip Kumar’s passing.
