Sharmila and Mansur, fondly called Tiger Pataudi, had a whirlwind romance before the two tied the knot. Talking about him in a chat with Ladies Study Group Official, Sharmila had said: "He was very English at that time with a very British accent. He would tell a joke and nobody would understand and he would laugh at his own joke."

She also revealed how he once wooed her with a poem, claiming that the words were his own. She said, "Tiger told me 'I have written this for you'. He used to sing, play the flute - Chaudvi Ka Chand, Dil Jalta Hai Toh Jalne Do, etc. He was a Begum Akhtar and Talat Mehmood fan. So, once he told me he had written this (poem) and I thought may be he had- Dil-e-Nadan Tujhe Hua Kya Hai. So next day I was shooting with Feroz (Khan) in this film called Safar. So I told him very proudly that Tiger had written this for me. And he said 'woman, this is Ghalib for God's sake'."
