Tina Munim was also romantically linked with film actor Rajesh Khanna after starring together in films such as Fifty Fifty and Souten. The relationship created a lot of publicity as Rajesh Khanna was married to Dimple Kapadia when he took up with Munim, but their relationship eventually ended.

Tina also made a popular screen team with actor Rishi Kapoor, since they were paired romantically in six films, the most popular being Subhash Ghai's Karz.
