Main article:It was the film that marked what many consider to be Madhubala's greatest and definitive characterisation, as the doomed courtesan. Although the film took nine years to complete, it was not until 1953 that Madhubala was finally chosen for the role. Bunny Reuben in his book Dilip Kumar: Star Legend of Indian Cinema claimed that Dilip Kumar's role was instrumental behind this selection. Mughal-e-Azam gave Madhubala the opportunity of fulfilling herself totally as an actress, for it was a role that all actresses dreamt of playing, as Nimmi acknowledges that 'as an actress, one gets a lot of roles, there is no shortage of them, but there isn't always good scope for acting.
With Mughal-e-Azam, Madhubala showed the world just what she could do.' However, by the late 1950s, her health was deteriorating rapidly, and director, probably unaware of the extent of Madhubala's illness, required long shooting schedules that made physical demands on her, whether it was posing as a veiled statue in suffocating make-up for hours under the studio lights or being shackled with heavy chains. It was also a time when Madhubala's relationship with Dilip Kumar was fading out, and the lives of Madhubala and her screen character were consistently seen as overlapping because of the overwhelming sense of loss and tragedy and the unrelenting diktat of destiny that clung to both and which neither could escape'.Mughal-e-Azam was released on 5 August 1960, and broke box office records in India and became the highest-grossing film at that time, a record that went unbroken for 15 years until the release of the in 1975.

Her last released film, although filmed in the late 1950s, was not released until 1971. It was released two years after her death.Personal life Relationships In his biography, The Mystery and Mystique of Madhubala, freelance journalist and author, Mohan Deep wrote:She was a woman possessed. Haunted by her own insecurities until the very end. She loved men.
And lost them. Latif, Mohan Sinha, Kamal Amrohi, Premnath, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Dilip Kumar, Pradeep Kumar, Bharat Bhushan, Kishore Kumar. — Mohan DeepWhen Madhubala was a child, she had a friend called Latif. Before leaving for Mumbai, Madhubala gave him a red rose and an indication for their love. After she left, he became depressed. He kept the rose with himself and later became an IAS officer. When Madhubala died, he placed that red rose on her grave.
Now he is retired and keeps a red rose in her grave on 23 February every year. Kamal Amrohi After Kamal Amrohi's directed film Mahal became a super hit, they both began a relationship. Her father Ataullah Khan was aware of their relationship but he was in awe with Amrohi's great personality and said: 'Aage chalke inn dono ki shaadi ho jaye toh mujhe koi aitraaz nahi hai'. (I have no objection if they both get married in future.) However, Amrohi was already married but still loved and wanted to marry Madhubala who refused to share with Amrohi's wife. Madhubala didn't want to share with Amrohi's second wife, Mehmoodi, and insisted that Amrohi divorce his wife.
Amrohi was not willing to do so. He insisted that Madhubala must learn to share and said 'Baatne se pyaar badta hai'.
(When you share your love, it expands its boundaries) But Madhubala didn't agree. It was also said that Madhubala put forward an outrageous deal where she offered to pay Amrohi, a sum amount of Rs. 9 lakh to marry. However, he refused and they both ended their relationship.
Her sister, Madhur Bhushan, refuted all such rumours and said: 'Kamal Amrohi was a married man and given our economic conditions how could she, the sole earning member of our family, offer him Rs. 9 lakh'.Dilip Kumar Dilip Kumar and Madhubala met each other on the sets of Tarana which starred them in lead roles.
Her father stood between her and Dilip Kumar as he was worried that if Madhubala would get married to Dilip Kumar, he would lose the financial cushion that Madhubala had offered to her entire family as she was the sole breadwinner. Ataullah Khan was against the relationship as Madhubala had just started her career and earning huge amount of money for her roles. It has been said that Dilip Kumar insisted that if they were to marry, Madhubala would have to severe all ties with her family. The authenticity of this statement is questionable. Ataullah Khan allowed his daughter to interact with Dilip Kumar only on the sets. Both Kumar and Madhubala had to keep extreme care to their rendezvous hidden from the watchful eyes of Ataullah Khan. Kumar had felt it like a huge imposition.Commenting on her choice of films, Dilip Kumar regrets that 'had she lived, and had she selected her films with more care, she would have been far superior to her contemporaries.'
Kumar also points out that 'actresses those days faced a lot of difficulties and constraints in their career. Unable to assert themselves too much, they fell back on their families who became their caretakers and defined everything for them.' Marriage to Kishore Kumar (1960) Madhubala met during the shooting of (1956).
In 1960, Madhubala married him when she was 27 years old. When Madhubala was ill in the late 1950s with the, Kishore Kumar proposed to her and she decided to marry him after realising that Dilip Kumar was not going to marry her. Kishore Kumar's family never accepted her in their family because Kishore Kumar married Madhubala as per his own wish. The couple had a Hindu ceremony to please Kumar's family but Madhubala was never truly accepted as his wife.
Reportedly, Kishore Kumar converted himself into and changed his legal name to 'Karim Abdul' to marry her. However, in an interview given to Filmfare, he said that neither he nor Madhubala ever changed their religion to marry each other. They went to London soon after their marriage for their honeymoon where the doctor told her that she had only two years to live. According to Madhubala's sister, Madhur Bhushan, after returning India, Kishore Kumar bought a flat for Madhubala at Quarter Deck, Carter's Road, where they stayed for a while and then, he left her there with a nurse and a driver.
He would visit Madhubala once in two months and said he couldn't look after her. But he never abused her as was reported and bore her medical expenses.She added 'Often Kishore bhaiya's phone was disconnected. He'd visit her once in two to three months. He'd say, 'If I come, you'll cry and it'll not be good for your heart.
You'll go into depression. You should rest'. She was young and jealousy was natural. Perhaps, a feeling of being abandoned killed her'.
Their marriage lasted for nine years. After Madhubala died in 1969 at the age of 36, Kishore Kumar married actress in 1975. Controversies on Madhubala's life In their 1962 book Self-Portrait, Harish Booch and Karing Doyle commented that 'Unlike other stars, Madhubala prefers a veiled secrecy around her and is seldom seen in social gatherings or public functions.'
(p. 76), and went on to say that 'Contrary to general belief, Madhubala is rather simple and unassuming' (p. 78). This is echoed in her sister's interview with Filmfare: '(Madhubala) became a craze because she was never seen in public.
She wasn't allowed to attend any function, any premiere. She had no friends. But she never resisted, she was obedient. Being protective, my father earned the reputation of being domineering'.
Dilip Kumar added: 'She was extremely popular. And I think the only star for whom people thronged outside the gates. Very often when shooting was over, there'd be a vast crowd standing at the gates just to have a look at Madhu. It wasn't so for anyone else. That was her personal effect on fans. Her personality was vivacious.' But, 'She was aware of her beauty,' reminisces, former Filmfare editor and a close friend of both Madhubala and her father, 'and because there were so many in love with her, she used to play one against the other.
But it was out of innocence rather than shrewd calculation.' Dev Anand recalled in a similar way: 'She liked to flirt innocently and was great fun.' However, with Dilip Kumar she had a long association.Dilip Kumar and Madhubala first met on the set of when she was 11 years of age, and worked together again on the film Har Singaar (1949), which was shelved. Their relationship began two years later during the filming of Tarana (1951).
But she had to give the courtship with Dilip due to her father's opposition to him. They became a romantic pair appearing in a total of four films together. Actor recalled that 'Dilip Kumar would drive down from Bombay to meet Madhubala. He even flew to Bombay to spend Eid with her, taking time off from his shooting stint.' But, Madhubala's father Ataullah Khan initially did not give them permission to marry. Dilip Kumar said: 'She was a very, very obedient daughter', and who, in spite of the success, fame and wealth, submitted to the domination of her father and more often than not paid for his mistakes.
'This inability to leave her family was her greatest drawback', believed Shammi Kapoor, 'for it had to be done at some time.' Kumar later revealed that her father eventually gave them permission to marry and was 'glad to have two stars under the same roof.' However, her father, who owned his own production company, wanted to make 'a business venture out of their proposed marriage' according to Kumar, which he did not approve of, after which the relationship began turning sour. The court case happened in 1956 when Dilip Kumar testified against Madhubala and her father in favour of director B.R.
Chopra in open court. This struck a fatal blow to the Dilip-Madhubala relationship as it ended any chance of reconciliation between Dilip Kumar and Madhubala's father. Reflecting on this, while Dilip Kumar said he was 'trapped', Shammi Kapoor felt 'this was something which went beyond him (Dilip) and he couldn't control the whole situation.' Madhubala married in 1960. According to (Kishore's fourth wife): 'When she realized Dilip was not going to marry her, on the rebound and just to prove to him that she could get whomsoever she wanted, she went and married a man she did not even know properly.'
Karanjia assumed that 'Madhubala may have felt that perhaps this was her best chance' because by this time she became seriously ill, and was about to stop working completely; however, he added that 'it was a most unlikely union, and not a happy one either.' Madhubala's illness was known to Kishore, but like all the others, he did not realise its gravity; Ataullah Khan did not approve of his son-in-law at all, but he had lost the courage to disapprove. Ashok Kumar reminisced in a Filmfare interview: 'She suffered a lot and her illness made her very bad-tempered. She often fought with Kishore, and would take off to her father's house where she spent most of her time.' However, Madhubala's love-life continued to be the subject of media speculation.
Wrote an unofficial biography of Madhubala titled Mystery and Mystique of Madhubala, published in 1996, where he claims that Kishore Kumar regularly whipped Madhubala, who would show her lashes to. He also claimed that the versions about Madhubala's sickness and death provided by her family members did not match with those provided by Kishore Kumar's family members and the fact that Madhubala was forced to wear heavy shackles and whipped mercilessly in real life in the secret version of Mughal-e-Azam is proved by the fact that only a minor part of the total number of reels shot were released for public. However, the secret version of the film earned Kishore Kumar a lot of money that he earned forcing Madhubala to work as a sex slave in the secret version of the movie. Mohan Deep also questions whether Madhubala was really ill or whether her ailing was a fiction. The book was heavily criticised on its release by industry veterans such as,.
Final years and death Madhubala had a (a hole in her heart) which was detected while she was shooting for Bahut Din Huwe in Madras in 1954. This was in the era before open heart surgeries were possible.
The natural history of an unrepaired ventricular septal defect leads to pulmonary hypertension and Eisenmenger's syndrome. At this stage the hole cannot be repaired. Hence, she could never undergo a heart surgery later in life, when open heart surgeries were possible in some Western countries like the United States. By 1960, her condition had become aggravated, and as her sister explains that due to her ailment, her body would produce extra blood, so it would spill out from her nose and mouth. The doctor would come home and extract bottles of blood. As a result of the ventricular septal defect, blood would bypass her lungs leading to low oxygen levels and giving her a blue discoloration.
As a compensatory mechanism, the body produced more red blood cells making the blood too thick. Hence, the doctors had to extract the excess blood to prevent complications. She was confined to bed for nine years and was reduced to just bones and skin.
Unfortunately, there was no surgery or medicine available at that time to treat her.In 1966, with a slight improvement in her health, she made a valiant attempt to complete her work in Chalak opposite, which needed only a short spell of shooting, but she could not even survive that strain. When acting was no longer an option, Madhubala turned her attention to film direction.
In 1969, she was set to make her directorial debut with the film Farz aur Ishq. However, the film was never made, as during pre-production, she died on 23 February 1969, shortly after her 36th birthday. The cause of death was determined to be the prolonged lung and heart illness. Madhubala's funeral was not attended by Dilip Kumar and it is not known if he was invited. Madhubala was buried at Muslim Cemetery in.
Her tomb was built with marbles and inscriptions include aayats from and verse dedications. In 2010, Madhubala's tomb along with those of, and, was demolished to make way for newer graves. Her remains were placed at an unknown location. Legacy and honours Madhubala's strong presence in the public memory has been evidenced by all recent polls about top actresses or beauties of the Indian cinema. Every year, numerous articles are printed and television programmes aired to commemorate her birthday. Her posters are still in demand and sold alongside contemporary actresses such as,.
Modern magazines continue to publish stories on her personal life and career, often promoting her name heavily on the covers to attract sales. In 's International Women's Day 2007 special, Madhubala was ranked second in its top ten list of 'Bollywood's best actresses'.
Many believe, however, that Madhubala remains one of the most under-rated actresses as 'Her beauty attracted more attention than her talent.' In 2004, a digitally-colorized version of the original was released, 35 years after her death.
