Yasmin (Vinita Butt) made her screen debut in Mr and Mrs 55. She also acted in Filmistan’s international venture, “Three Headed Cobra”. Vinita fell in love with makeup man Jimmy Vining while shooting for this film. They became man and wife in November 1955. After honeymooning in Mahabaleshwar, Vinita settled down as a home maker. Like Bhagyashree later, Vinita insisted on acting only in those movies that employed her husband as a technician.
 
 
Vinita was clear about her career – “Either make a success of your chosen profession or get out of it.”  She was born in Rawalpindi on 3 April 1937.  Vinita spent the first seven years of her life in Kashmir. She arrived in Bombay in November 1954, sometime after she had done her Senior Cambridge in Bangalore. In Bangalore, she had appeared on the stage in Tagore’s “Sacrifice” and one of J. B. Priestley’s plays.
 
Guru Dutt spotted her in Bangalore and offered her a film contract. But things didn’t materialize for some time. Later, Chandulal Shah offered her a role in Oot Patang.  She enjoyed acting and expressed her gratitude to Chandulal Shah and Goharbai whom she admired and respected.
 
Vinita met Guru Dutt in Mehboob Studios where the latter offered her the role of the Anglo Indian girl in Mr and Mrs 55.
 
Vinita Butt aka Yasmeen who became Mrs Jimmy Vining steadfastly shunned all publicity and media hype after her marriage. Unconfirmed reports say that she stays in Valsad now... but again no one knows the truth!

Jimmy Vinning, the expert:

An all British crew was shooting a film called Bombay Flight 470. The crew was also testing the colour film. Mukherjee Saheb told papa ajoba to be an assistant to Jimmy Vinnig who was a leading make up artist. Papa Ajoba was introduced to J.V. and they exchanged pleasantries. But when Jimmy started his make up he said to papa ajoba, “Mr.Tipnis I don’t allow anyone in my make up room”. Papa ajoba left the make room and went and sat in the park. In the meantime Mr.Mubarak, the actor shows up and asks Papa Ajoba, “why are you sitting outside?” Papa ajoba narrates the incident to him and Mubarak says to him, “you come with me and I will see how he’s not letting you in.” He then goes and confronts Jimmy and Jimmy admits to have told my grand father to leave. Mubarak then says, “Mr. Vinnig, Tipnis has done 4 films in Geva colour and the results are better than yours in the film Mayurpankh. Papa Ajoba concludes this story by saying that “Jimmy Vinning apologized to me and after that Geva was widely used”.

The makeup man, his wife is more famous.

Vinita Butt Biography

Born in Rawalpindi on April 3rd, 1937, of Hindu-English parentage, Vinita spent the first seven years of her life in Kashmir. Educated at various hill-station schools, Vini came to Bombay in November 1954, some time after she had done her Senior Cambridge in Bangalore. In Bangalore, she had been a member of the Bangalore Amateur Dramatic Society (the B.

A.D.S.) and appeared on the stage in Tagore’s “Sacrifice” and one of J. B. Priestley’s plays. It was in Bangalore that Guru Dutt first saw her and, struck by her good looks and vivacious personality, offered her a film contract. He took some photographs of her back with him to Bombay and then wrote to her, offering her a role. The terms were not exactly flattering and Vini and her mother soon forgot about the episode.

In Bombay Vinita met Anwar Hussein, an old friend of the family, and, through him, Chandulal Shah who gave her a small role in “Oot Patang,” the film he was then making. While working in “Oot Patang”, Vinita visited the Mehboob Studios where, once again she met Guru Dutt, who had gone on the floors with his film, “Mr. & Mrs. 55”. He offered Vinita the role of the Anglo-Indian office girl Julie and she accepted it.

At that time, Vinita’s screen name was Yasmin and her performance, according to the critics, displayed a confidence, ease and aplomb which enabled her to even steal scenes from the seasoned comedian Johnny Walker. It was also at the Mehboob Studios that Vinita met Zul Vellani, who asked her to play Desdemona in a Theatre Group open-air presentation of “Othello.

” This, indirectly, led to her next film contract. Alex D’Arcy, the Hollywood actor who came to India to star in Filmistan’s CinemaScope and Technicolor production, “Bombay Flight 417,” met her and was impressed by her. Her film test, for which she was made up by her future husband, Jimmy Vining, was a great success and Vinita, now using her own name on the screen, landed the role of Rukhmini.

She and Jimmy soon married. (The above biography has been adapted from a Filmfare magazine interview in 1956, courtesy of Cineplot.com)
