Facts
Sayeeda Rehman is the elder sister of actress Waheeda Rehman. She was third among 4 sisters. Zahida Rehman and Shahida Rehman Malik are the other two sisters. Their father was Mohammad Abdul Rehman who worked as a district commissioner and mother was Mumtaz Begum.
Their father was transferred constantly, and this affected the studies of all 4 sisters. Zahida and Shahida managed to study up to Class 8, but Sayeeda and Waheeda didn’t get even that far.
There is still a great bonding between all the four sisters.
She is often mistaken for actress Sayeeda Khan (Brij Sadanah's wife & Kamal Sadanah's mother) because of both having the same first name.
Sayeeda and Waheeda learnt Bharatanatyam from master exponents of the time Guru Meenakshisundaram Pillai in Chennai and Guru Jayalakshmi Alva in Mumbai and performed together on stage.
Sayeeda was also trained in playing the tabla and has performed as a classical dancer in Mumbai.
Due to the demise of her father in 1951, ailing mother and their two elder sisters Zahida & Shahida already being married, Sayeeda and Waheeda could not pursue their studies.
Sayeeda and Waheeda started doing dance shows to make ends meet. Sayeeda got married in 1953.
Sayeeda became a companion to Waheeda when she was starting out in Bombay, because her husband was based in Vijayawada, and it was easier for them to come to Bombay often. She and her husband helped Waheeda in her film assignments. Her other elder sister Shahida also helped at times.
