Madhubala and Raj Kapoor in Do Ustad.
The viewers of bollywood films wish happy birthday to legendary actress
and Beauty Queen Madhubala on 14th February, 2012. She had rightly been
born on Valentine’s Day, the day when human beings show that love to
their most beloved persons. She had glorified bollywood films of the
40s, 50s and 60s.
She stormed bollywood with her spooky character in the film Mahal in
1947. The song “ayega anewala” sung by Lata Mangeshkar and composed by
Khemchand Prakash was a milestone in Indian cinema. Lata rose to fame
with that song. The film became extremely successful.
In the 40s, she acted in a number of films opposite Raj Kapoor
including Neel Kamal, Chitor Bijay, etc. Her films opposite Dilip Kumar
like Amar and Sangdil became big hits. She came to number one position
with the film Mr. and Mrs 55 opposite Gurudutt. She acted in the role of
a rich unmarried girl in the film who lived under the guardianship of
Lalita Power. All the songs in the film composed by OP Nayyar became
super hit including “thandi hawa”, “jane kaha mera”, etc.
Her films opposite Bharat Bhushan became super hit one after the other
including Phagun, Barsaat Ki Raat. Barsaat Ki Raat was a musical
blockbuster where Roshanlal Nagrath proved his excellence as composed in
ghazals like “zindagi bhar nahi bhulegi wo barsaat ki raat”, qawallies
like “na to karwanki talash hai na humsafar ki talash hai”. She gave
excellent lips in the songs of the films. Her beauty in Raj Kapoor’s
film Do Ustad amazed the viewers. The songs in the film composed by OP
Nayyar also became super hit including “nazron ke teer mare kas kas
kas”, “tu ladki mai ladka”, etc, picturised on Madhubala and Raj Kapoor.
Mughal-i-Azam was probably the best film of her career in the role of
Anarkali. The film had been remade in colour. K Asif spend huge money
for making the historical film and all the performers in the film
including Madhubala, Dilip Kumar, Prithviraj Kapoor, Durga Khote gave
their best.
