Dilip Ji and Madhubala will always remain a dream pair on Indian Screen, their chemistry was just too perfect, they just lighted up in each other’s presence and it’s so evident on screen. Also she went through heartbreak when her romantic relationship with Dilip Kumar could not culminate in a marriage. Madubala was sadly diagnosed to have a heart condition at the peak of her career and she sadly could not continue to work. Her role in Mr & Mrs 55 also showcased her comic talent, so did Half Ticket and Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi. Madubala had brilliant comic timing and could easily match pace with Kishore Kumar too. She is well remembered for her role in Howrah Bridge where she played a seductress and the song Aayiye Meharbaan is perhaps amongst her most enchanting one’s. She was so very beautiful that she seemed surreal and one would be so stunned to see her that going near her other aspects was difficult. This particular scene truly describes her persona. In Guru Dutt’s Mr.& Mrs.55 there is this scene when some street kids find her near Guru Dutt’s apartment (she is a rich woman dressed well), and mistake her to be a ‘fairy’, they do not want to come near fearing that the ‘fairy’ may disappear. Whenever I watch a Madhubala film I’m spellbound by her beauty so much that it’s hard to notice her great performance. It’s often when a woman is too beautiful, her beauty distracts from her performances. Later, she however bounced back with a row of hit and memorable films culminating finally into the biggest film of Hindi cinema Mughal-E-Azam that truly made her a legend for her talent and not just beauty. Madhubala was actress par excellence too, only she was not credited initially when her films flopped in the 50s (Tarana, Sangdil and Amar) could not meet box office success and she was labelled a jinx. For years I have noticed most beauty parlours adorning her on their walls as if endorsing their beauty business by the symbol of beauty itself. Her luminous eyes, her royal gait and that bewitching smile makes her the best poster picture one can imagine. Her beauty had child like quality, fragile yet confident. Ayega Aanewal she sung on screen, and froze one of the most glorifying moments of Hindi film history, a moment portraying timelessness of beauty in the purest form.

Madhubala was 17 when she became a star and her aura in the film Mahal has spell binding capability. Made her debut as a child artiste in the early 40’s, she never looked back and though huge success eluded her for a while, it was Mahal which released in 1949 that made her a star forever.
