What is ironic is that Madhubala was not even the first choice for the film. Madhubala is spot on as the вЂspiritвЂ™ that haunts Ashok KumarВ bringing a haunting quality to her performance as well.

For the first time her famous looks came into focus as well as she began to blossom into the most beautiful Hindi Film heroine ever. Though Madhubala did a spate of films in 1947-8 like Dil ki Rani (1947), Chittor Vijay (1947), Khubsurat Duniya (1947), Amar Prem (1948), Lal Dupatta (1948)В and Parai Aag (1948), it was with the Bombay Talkies suspense thriller Mahal (1949)В that she finally became a star. It was Kidar Sharma who gave her a break as heroine opposite Raj Kapoor, also making his debut as leading man, in Neel Kamal (1947) when she was barely 14. To be fair to her, she was brilliant in comedy with her sense of comic timing spot on and when required she came up with performances of high dramatic calibre in Amar (1954)В and the unforgettable Mughal-e-Azam (1960).Д«orn Mumtaz Jehan Dehlavi in abject poverty in Delhi on February 14, 1933, Madhubala began life initially in the Hindi film world as a child actor, Baby Mumtaz, in films like Bombay TalkiesвЂ™ Basant (1942) and Mumtaz Mahal (1944). She was also perhaps the most underrated actress ever with her beauty more often than not attracting more attention than her performances. Madhubala was without doubt the most beautiful Hindi Film heroine ever and is often still called rightly the Venus of the Indian screen.
