News India Live, Digital Desk: Madhubala,, Whenever the most spectacular films are mentioned in the history of Indian cinema, the name of ‘Mughal-e-Azam’ is taken in golden letters. Every scene of the film, every dialogue and every character is Amar. Especially, no one can forget the love story of Salim and Anarkali and the active performance of Madhubala in it.
We all remember that romantic ‘feather scene’ of the film, but do you know the pain that Madhubala endured by filming many other scenes? Today we are introducing you to the reality that is hidden behind the camera.
Heart disease and director’s insistence
Madhubala, called ‘Venus of Indian Cinema’, was struggling with a serious illness since birth. There was a hole in his heart (ventricular septal defect), due to which his body was often weak and his breath started to breathe with a little hard work.
On the other side, the director of the film was K.K. Asif, who could go to any extent for perfection in his work. He wanted every scene to feel so real that the audience could feel it. This stubbornness gave Madhubala many unbearable pain.
Cold water torture and surrender of Madhubala
There are many scenes in the film where Anarkali is shown in water. The shooting of these scenes used to last for hours, and Madhubala had to live continuously in icy cold water. Being a patient of the heart, the cold was similar to poison for them.
During the shooting, his arms and legs and lips often turned blue. She started trembling, but her face did not even face wrinkles in front of the camera. She forgot her illness and pain and drowned in the role of Anarkali. The people present on the set used to get upset after seeing his condition, but Madhubala’s dedication to his work was such that he never complained.
Today, when we see the pain of Anarkali on the screen, we forget how much pain the actress who played that character was actually going through. This was Madhubala’s unmatched love and dedication to her fun, which made Anarkali’s character immortal forever.
